Chords with lyrics
Written by: T.P. & Mike Campbebell/Album: "Damn The Torpedoes"–MCA (1979) The main progression for the INTRO and VERSE of the song goes like this–– Use a 1st finger barre at 2nd fret, move (not slide) it up to 4th fret. When you play it with the song, you'll get the feel of it: A augmentedA B/A Amaj7Amaj7 B/A E-------------------|--------------|-------------------|------------------- B-2-----------------|-4-----4--5--7|-5-----------------|-4----------------- G-2-----------------|-4-----4------|-6-----------------|-4----------------- D-2-----------------|-4-----4------|-7-----------------|-4----------------- A-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0|-0--0--0------|-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0|-0--0--0-0-0--0-0-0 E-------------------|--------------|-------------------|------------------- VERSE 1: A augmentedA You know, sometimes, I ...

CHORUS and then BREAK (see bottom) VERSE 3:Yeah every time it seems there ain't nothin' ..... CHORUS then END (the ending is just the first and last measures of the VERSE: A augmentedA to B/A) BREAK: This break repeats three times, and the fourth time just continues the same vamp on the E MajorE and A augmentedA strings, to VERSE 3.

Also, the E MajorE in the CHORUS can be played with an E9E9 in the middle: E MajorE E9E9 E MajorE o o | | Use the E9: | | | 1 | | | / / / / / / | "down/down/up/up/down/up" | 2 3 | | 4 | | strum. | | | | | | 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ENJOY!
