Beatles-Penny Lane
[Verse 1 - Capo 2 - No drums - nice and slow - think show shuffle] In Penny
[A] Lane there is a
[F#m] barber showing
[D] photographs
[E7] of ev'ry
[A] head he's had the
[F#m] pleasure to have
[Am] known
And all the
[Am/F#] people that come and
[Fmaj7] go stop and say
[E7] hello (E7 figure G-2 B-2 G-2 B-0)
[Verse 2- Full drums] On the
[A] corner is a
[F#m] banker with a
[D] motor car
[E7]The little
[A] children laugh at
[F#m] him behind his
[Am] back.
(drums - drop second bass drum)
And the
[Am/F#] banker never wears a
[Fmaj7] mac in the
pou
[E7] ring rain, very
[D] strange (drums B B B then S pickup)
[Chorus] Penny
[G] Lane is in my
[G/B] ears and in my
[C] eyes.
[Trumpet line 1][G] There beneath the
[G/B] blue suburban
[C] skies
I sit and
[E7] meanwhile back
[Verse 3] In Penny
[A] Lane there is a
[F#m] fireman with an
[D] hour
glass
[E7] and in his
[A] pocket is a
[F#m] portrait of the
[Am] queen.
He likes to
[Am/F#] keep his fire engine
[Fmaj7] clean,
it's a
[E7] clean machine.
[Interlude] (piccolo trumpet)
[A] [F#m] [D6] [E] [A] [F#m] [Am7][Am/F#] [Fmaj7] [E7] [D] [Chorus 2] Penny
[G] Lane is in my
[G/B] ears and in my
[C] eyes.
[Trumpet line 1][G] A four of
[G/B] fish and finger
[C] pies in summer
[E7] meanwhile back
[Verse 4] Behind the
[A] shelter in the
[F#m] middle of the
[D] roundabout
[E7]The pretty
[A] nurse is selling
[F#m] poppies from a
[Am] tray
And though she
[Am/F#] feels as if she's in a
[Fmaj7] play
She is
[E7] anyway.
[Verse 5] In Penny
[A] Lane the barber
[F#m] shaves another
[D] customer
[E7] .
We see the
[A] banker sitting,
[F#m] waiting for a
[Am] trim
And then the
[Am/F#] fireman rushes
[Fmaj7] in from the
[E7] pouring rain,
[D] very strange.
[Chorus] Penny
[G] Lane is in my
[G/B] ears and in my
[C] eyes.
[G] There beneath the
[G/B] blue suburban
[C] skies I sit
and
[E7] meanwhile back
[Outro] [A] Penny Lane is in my
[A/C#] ears and in my
[D] eyes.
[A] There beneath the
[A/C#] blue suburban
[D] skies.

[Verse 1] [Dm7] Looking back on
[G7] when I,
[Dm7] was a little
[G7] nappy headed
[Dm7] boy.
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Dm7] Then my only
[G7] worry,
[Dm7] was for Christmas;
[G7] what would be my
[Dm7] toy.
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Bridge 1] [A7] Even though we
[B7] sometimes
[Em7] would not get a
[Gm6-355353] thing;
[A7] We were happy
[B7] with the
[Em7] joy the day would
[A7#5-5x566x] bring.
[Verse 2] [Dm7] Sneaking out the
[G7] back door,
To
[Dm7] hang out with those
[G7] hoodlum friends of
[Dm7] mine.
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Dm7] Greeted at the
[G7] back door,
With; "boy, I
[Dm7] thought I told you
[G7] not to go out-
[Dm7] side?"
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Bridge 2] [A7] Tryin' your best to
[B7] bring the
[Em7] water to you
[Gm6] eyes.
[A7] Thinkin' it might
[B7] stop her, from
[Em7] whoopin' your be-
[A7#5] hind.
[Chorus 1] I wish those
[Dm7] days,
[G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once
[G7] more,

[Verse 3] [Dm7] Brother says he's
[G7] tellin',
[Dm7] 'Bout you playing
[G7] doctor with that
[Dm7] girl.
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Dm7] Just don't tell; I'll
[G7] give you,
[Dm7] Anything you
[G7] want in this whole wide
[Dm7] world.
[G7] [Dm7] [G7] [Bridge 3] [A7] Mama gives you
[B7] money,
[Em7] for Sunday
[Gm6] school,
[A7] You trade yours for
[B7] candy,
[Em7] after church is
[A7#5] through.
[Verse 4] [Dm7] Smokin' ciga-
[G7] rettes and,
And
[Dm7] writing something
[G7] nasty on the
[Dm7] wall,
[G7] (you nasty
[Dm7] boy!)
[G7] [Dm7] Teacher sends you
[G7] to the
[Dm7] principals of
[G7] fice down the
[Dm7] hall.
[G7] [Bridge 4] [A7] You grow up and
[B7] learn that,
[Em7] kinda thing ain't
[Gm6] right.
[A7] But while you were
[B7] doin' it; it
[Em7] sure felt outta
[A7#5] sight.

With a

For all to
[G] sing, dance, and clap their
[F#] ha-

[Bridge 1] But just be-
[E9] cause a
[D#9] record
[D9] has a

Don't
[D9] make it
[D#9] in the

But you can
[E9] tell right a-
[D#9] way at
[D9] letter
[C#9] A,
When the

[D#9] ple
[E9] start

[Verse 2] [B] Music knows it is and
[G#m] always will,
Be one of
[G] the things that life just won't
[F#] quit.
[B] But here are some of music's
[G#m] pioneers,
That time will
[G] not allow us to for-
[F#] get;
[F7] [Bridge 2] For there's
[E9] Basie,
[D#9] Miller,
[D9] Satch-
[C#9] mo,
And the
[D9] King of
[D#9] all, Sir
[E9] Duke.
And with a
[E9] voice like
[D#9] Ella's
[D9] ringing
[C#9] out,
There's no
[D9] way
[D#9] the
[E9] band

We're off to never-never land
Note : This tab for the solo is greatly inspired by the original
tab of the solo, and many thanks to the author of that tab. It
Was quite accurate but wrong in a couple of places, basiclly here
I changed it to be as close as possible to Kirk.
For the solo, James plays the main riff twice, then his part of
the prechorus, and his part of the chorus. Its amazing how well
the solo fits in.

[Chorus 1 - to make chords more interesting can go from
G to C, C to Dm7 and D to Em7 figure]In the middle of the
[G] night I go walking in my
[G] sleep
From the mountains of
[C] faith to the river so
[D] deep
I must be looking for
[G] something, something sacred I
[G] lost
But the river is
[C] wide and it's too hard to
[D] cross
[Verse 1][Em] Even though I know the
[D] river is wide
I walk down
[C] every evening and I
[Bm] stand on the shore
[C] I try to cross to
[Bm] the opposite side
So I can
[A7] finally find out what I've been
[D] looking for
(run down - x7777x x6777x x5777x x3555x x5777x)
[Chorus 2]In the middle of the
[G] night I go walking in my
[G] sleep
Through the valley of
[C] fear to a river so
[D] deep
I've been searching for
[G] something taken out of my
[G] soul
Something I could never
[C] lose, something somebody
[D] stole
[Verse 2][Em] I don't know why I go
[D] walking at night
But now I'm
[C] tired and I don't wanna
[Bm] walk anymore
[C] I hope it doesn't take the
[Bm] rest of my life
Until I
[A7] find what it is I've been
[D] looking for
(run down)
[Pause] [Chorus 3]In the middle of the
[G] night I go walking in my
[G] sleep
Through the jungle of
[C] doubt to the river so
[D] deep
I know I'm searching for
[G] something, something so
[G] undefined
That it only can be
[C] seen by the eyes of the
[D] blind
In the middle of the
[G] night
[C] [D] [Piano bit - add 7ths - bluesy][G] [C] [D] x 2
[Verse 3][Em] Not sure about a
[D] life after this
God
[C] knows I've never been a
[Bm] spiritual man
[C] Baptized by
[Bm] fire, I wade into the
[A7] river
That is runnin' through the
[D] promised land
(run down)
[Double Pause][Chorus 4]In the middle of the
[G] night I go walking in my
[G] sleep
Through the desert of
[C] truth to the river so
[D] deep
We all end in the
[G] ocean, we all start in the
[G] streams
We're all carried a
[C] long by the river of
[D] dreams
In the middle of the
[G] night

Elton John-Sun Going Down
Don't go for harmonies in the chorus too much
Opening figure - use thumb and first finger to play B - 1 3 E - 1 0 B - 1 3
Whilst still holding the C chord as much as possible so it sustains
Chord for C/Bb - 6x555
Run down - D 0 - A- 3 2 0 then play G - don't pull off play first
with first finger then rest with thumb
Piano intro C - notes - dont try to hold C maj chord - use second
finger for the 1 so in good position to finger the next chord
B 1 3 E 1 0 B 3 1 (hammer on and pull off) - 11xx1x 01xx1x x10x1x
Use side of thumb and muting with left hand to 1 &3&4 - staccato on 4
Losing everything - have snare hit with no chord OR just play bass drum with chords

Kenny Rogers-The Gambler
[Verse - No drums] G C G
On a warm summer's evening on a train bound for nowhere
G G D
I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to speak
G C G
So we took turns a-starin' out the window at the darkness
C G D7 G
'Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak.
G C G
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,
G D
Knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes,
G C G
And if you don't mind me sayin', I can see you're out of aces,
C G D G
And for a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
(bass drum on 2 and 4 to begin with - no snare)
G C G
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow;
G G D
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light,
G C G
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression,
C G D G
' said "If you're gon na play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
[Chorus - Half time shuffle] G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
C G D
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
G D G C G
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.
[Verse]A D A
Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
A E
Is knownin' what to throw away and knowin' what to keep
A E A D A
'Cause every hand's a winner, and every hand's a loser,
D A E A
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
[Verse] A D A
And when he finished speakin', he turned back toward the window,
A E
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep, (drums stop)
A E A D A
And somewhere in the darkness, the gambler, he broke even,
D A E A
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.
[Chorus - Drums back in] A D A
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
D A A E
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
A E A D A
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
A D A E A
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.
[Chorus] A D A
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
D A A E
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
A E A D A
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
A D A E A
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.

You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave, don't leave me
Look around and choose your own ground
Cmaj7
Long you live and high you fly

Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
Fmaj7
all you touch and all you see

Is all your life will ever be
Em A
Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.

Cmaj7
For long you live and high you fly

But only if you ride the tide

And balanced on the biggest wave

You race towards an early grave

Home,home again I like to be here when I can
and when I come home cold and tired
It’s good to warm my bones by the fire

Far away across the fields the tolling of the iron bell

The

[Dmaj7] Every year is getting shorter,
[Amaj7] never seem to find the time.
[Dmaj7] Plans that either come to naught, or
[Amaj7] half a page of scribbled lines.

[Em] It's bigger than you
And you are
[Am] not me.
The lengths that I will

The distance in your

[Em] Oh no, I've said too
[Dm] much,
I set it
[G] up. (stop)
[Chorus] That's me in the
[Am] corner,
That's me in the

Losing my re

Trying to
[Em] keep up with you.
And I
[Am] don't know if I can do it.
[Em] Oh no, I've said too
[Dm] much,
I haven't said e

Trying to

[Verse 3] Consider
[Am] this, consider this,
The
[Em] hint of a century,
Consider
[Am] this: the slip
That
[Em] brought me to my knees failed.
[Am] What if all these fantasies
Come
[Em] flailing around?
Now I've
[Dm] said too

U2-With Or Without You

[Intro] D A Bm G
D A Bm G
[Intro Riff]Tap these harmonics based on D major chord - play snare with thumb - 4 bars
B--15----15----
G-----14----14---
Then
E - 14 then E - 14 15 17 section
Play harmonic with right hand as loud as you can - be very accurate
with where you position the first finger and really use edge of nail
on little finger - play the chords very gently in between harmonics
to help it chug along but be no louder than the harmonics - then the song
starts quietly
Chords are
D xx0235, A x02222, Bm x24432, Gmaj7 3x0002
D xx0235, A x02225, Bm7 x24235, Gadd9 3x0005
During louder parts tap harmonics on the backbeat - have to play
snare on part of soundboard above the frets
[Verse 1 - Chug - very quiet - even on snare - play barre chords] (D at 5, A at 5, Bm at 7, G at 3)

[D] Ooh - ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Then
D Asus4 Bm G x 4
D xx0775 (mute A with lh 2nd finger)
Asus4 x0775x (move shape for D across to BGD strings)
Bm7 797777
G 10x00010
[Miscellaneous]Start very quiet - have to play to loudness of harmonics
Start playing harmonics of D chord on B and G strings - tap
and play snare at same time when playing high D
Then play harmonic F# by touching string at 14th fret with
1st finger and plucking with 4th finger
then strum &2& bit with right hand and play snare with thumb
Chords are
xx0232 x02222 x24432 (3x0002 3x0003)
Make sure chords played very lightly and completely muted
when you go to play the next harmonic
Notes - when start, tap harmonics of D chord at 12th fret area
And use those taps (some of them) for the backbeat
Tap harmonics on louder sections of with or without you
and can be backbeat as well
Intro riff
Fret the high D and articulate high note/s
with up pluck with 2nd finger - put in drop D
and strum with other fingers and can do snare
Also this is constantly played over the chords
So chords really are
D Asus4 Bm7 Gadd9 (3x0233)
In fact with ebow part becomes
D F#m7/A (ish), Bm7 , Gadd9 (3x0233)
Can use thumb to play hihat figure as well snare by using differnt
emphasis
little finger strum then th(2) TH(3) th(4) th(1) th(2) TH(3) th(4)
In parts of song guitar riff implies A7sus4
Right hand little finger to strum each chord and use right hand thumb
to play snare and 8th notes figure on sound board to give momentum
Make sure high note is held and vibratoed for as long as possible
Ascending figure 13 to 15 happens on transition from G to D
12(G) 13(G) 15(D)

[Verse + Riff - Full drums] [E] Hey, once I was a boogie singer
Playin' in a rock-and-roll band
I never had no problems
Burnin' down the one-night stands
And everything around me
Got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
Yes, I did
To disco down and check out the show
(Horn Riff 0x991212 xx771010 0x991212)
[Pre-Chorus - E7#9 or 076777] [E] Yeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
(Drum roll - use electronic bass drum pedal)
(straight 8 notes)
----BBBB-B+SBBB-BBBB-------S
Or play B drum on offbeat
SBSB SBSB SBSB SBS "shouted" for final snare
Somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music right
Play that funky music,
[A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that
[E7#9] boogie
And
[B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die."
'Til you die?
[Verse + Riff] [E] I tried to understand this
I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish
To not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fighting
Well, losing every step by the way
... we can do
I said, I must go back there
I got to go back
And check to see if things still the same
[Pre-Chorus] [E7#9 or 076777] Yeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted
[Chorus G7add9] [G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music,
[A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that

And
[B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die."
'Til you die?
Oh, 'til you die
Gonna play some electrified funky music
[Solo - All over riff - E7#9] [Verse + Riff] [E] Hey, wait a minute
Now first it wasn't easy
Changing rock-and-rolling minds
And things were gettin' shaky
I thought I'd have to leave it behind
Oh, but now it's so much better (it's so much better)
I'm funking out in every way
But I'll never lose that feelin' (you know, I won't)
Of how I learned my lesson that day
[Pre-Chorus] [E7#9 or 076777] Yeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted (drum roll)
[Chorus G7add9] [G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music,

And

[Riff] 'Til you die?
Oh, 'til you die
They shouted
[Chorus - All G7] "Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
You got to keep on playin' funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Gonna take you high and low."
[Now A7] "Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right."

[More Notes] Nice idea for drum fill + guitar at same time to get &1xx 2xx 3x&
Strum up with all fingers of right hand and then back down with thumb
to play the snare for 1& then play snare and fingers together for
2xx then just snare on 3 and then just fingers with bass for x&
[Solo] With solo you can allude to it in chords
Pick up - Dm Dm

Run is 3 triplets then final phrase - pluck with fingers and thumb and emphasise the one of each triplet
