LAZY - INTRO (tablature)
========================


I used to have the tab for this but I've lost it.
The following is the way I play it which may not
match the record but I think most of it is pretty
close. This is just the main guitar solo at the
beginning. Someone else has posted the chords.
Note that this version is a tone higher than the record.

Key:

   >>      Bend up two semi-tones.

  3==5     Slide from 3 to 5.

   ==9     Slide up to 9 from nowhere in particular.

   3_5     Hammer on 3 to 5.

   5_3     Pull off 5 to 3.

   tr.     Trill (Same as 6_7_6_7_6_7 played rapidly)
   6~7

   vib.    Vibrato.

"Bar" lines divide the solo into riffs rather than bars.

LAZY - VERSES (chords)
======================



Well this is just the singing part:

       Gm7  C/G
You're ....
        Gm7
Just ....
       C
You're ...
               Gm7
Just stay ..
          Bb
You don't ...
F                 Gm7    D7#9 (ie Purple Haze E down 2 frets)
You don't want ...

Repeat chords for

If you're drowning you don't ....


(Harmonica solo)


Well my trying ain't ....

Lazy you just stay in ....


(Guitar solo)
(blues outro w/harmonica)

This is the chord progression from Lazy:

Gm7 | C/G |  Gm7 | Gm7
C   | C   |  Gm7 | Gm7
Bb  | F   |  Gm7 | D7#9 (the funky E from Purple Haze down 2 frets)

I think these could do with some explanation:

      EADGBE
Gm7:  353333 (I can't remember the simpler one!)
C/G:  335553 or 332010
C:    332010 or -32010 (whatever C you prefer!!)
Bb:   115551 or --5551
F:    133211 or --3211
D7#9: -5456- (or if you're beginning : D7: -00212



========================
LAZY - OUTRO (tablature)
========================


Thought I'd contribute some...

Here's what I think is the outro on the song LAZY by DeepPurple.
THe actual song has been tabbed and archived at Nevada or Uwp!
Can somebody put the actual chords on this piece (in A major)? The song
itself is a minor blues before the outro, ie (Am / D / Am / C / G / Am /E7#9).
