[E] This must be [B] fake,
My [E] lip starts to [A] shake.
But [C#m] How does she know [A] who I am [B]
And [C#m] How does she give [A] a damn [B] about me.
[Chorus 3] (same chords but softer than previous choruses,
possibly pluck certain notes)
I've got two

Lynyrd Skynyrd-Sweet Home Alabama
[Loop section where riff is played over drums for first time and store - then just have solo sound on in background and either play little lead lines or the piano part or that chromatic riff which repeats in certain sections - Can try the F and C section]
[Intro - BPM 98 - riff on own - then riff and drums]
(notes - Wheels, Well I Heard, In Birmingham, Muscle Shoals)
[Verse]
Big wheels keep on turning
Carrying me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the southland
I'm missing old mammie once again
And I think it's a sin, yes
[Riff]
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her (oo, oo, oo)
Well I heard old Neil put it down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow
[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
[Solo 1]
In Birmingham they loved the governor (oo, oo, oo F to C bit)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth
[Chorus]
Here I come Alabama
[Solo - Alabam ah, ah, ah]
[Riff]
[Verse]
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers (oo, oo, oo)
And they've been known to pick a song or two (yes, they do)
Lord they give me oh so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?
[Chorus] F to C bit at end
[Chorus]
[Loop Notes]
1. Practise stop for G to F
2. Solo ideas
- start with that bend 15th fret on E
- 2 note phrase then tap high note -
- that 2 note per string thing seems to work - 35 35 45 45 35 35
- fast line that works is G - 14 B 12 13 15 13 12
- try a bit of G minor as well but with stay away from minor 3rd
- try the open strings bit - but on G string - 4p2p0 and variations of
- the play the 'ah ah ah' bit - B - 15 13 12 and play the triads around later
