AC/DC "Rock and Roll Damnation" from Powerage album by [email protected] Ok this is one of my favourite AC/DC tracks. It's easy and fun to play. The intro arrpeggios are played over the chords A augmentedA and D. A augmentedA D MajorD E---------------------------| B----------8------------7---| B--------9------------7-----| 2 times D------7------------7-------| A---0------------5----------| E---------------------------|
The main riff is rock and roll itself. Perhaps one of the most used rock rythyms going - it still sounds fresh on this album - even in 1994 !! A augmentedA E---------------------------------------| B------3--3-po-2-----3-3-po-2-----------| G------2--2----2-----2-2----2-----------| D------4 -4-po-2-----4-4-po-2-----------| A---0--0--0----0--0--0-0----0--3-4-0----| E---------------------------------------| po = pull off Try experimenting with this rythym until you get the right feel. IT IS FUN !!! lyrics verse: y' say that that you play .... chorus: G5G5 D/F#D/F# A5A5 It's a Rock and ... G5G5 D/F## A5A5 ma's own ... G5G5 D/F#D/F# A5A5 rock and roll ... D5D5 take a ... E5E5 while you still .... verse2: you say that you want .... Chorus: Intro section over the lyrics: just a boy with a toy .... Chorus: G5G5 D/F#D/F# A5A5 It's a Rock and ... G5G5 D/F## A5A5 ma's own ... G5G5 D/F#D/F# A5A5 rock and ... G5G5 (not D MajorD this time) take ... D5D5 while you still ...
Back to the main riff for the solo which I can't get to sound right - but I know that just as the vocals come back in the solo is playing something like: E-----------17------------ B---------------------17-- G---16b-16b---16b-16b----- repeatedly. D------------------------- A------------------------- E------------------------- try messing around with this. It's easier to stumble across by playing than writing it down !! Finally, the chords G+G and D/F#D/F# are the standard AC/DC stuff G+G D/F#D/F# note no major or minor tonalities E---x------x-- B---3------3-- G---0------2-- D---0------0-- A---x------0-- E---3------2-- I hope you enjoy it !!! Rock and Rooooolllllllllllllllllllll !!! Adrian Mayes [email protected] End of Message
