Big Bad Leroy Brown chords by Queen

BRING BACK THAT LEROY BROWN
(Freddie Mercury/Queen. From the albumn _Sheer Heart Attack_.)

   Brian actually plays this on an ukele banjo. This is only
an approximate transcription for guitar. Gotta play it in that
fast, Dixie style. (Or is it Charleston? Anyways....) The
*really* tough part, where you'll need the most practice, is the
C, B7, Bb7, A7, Dm7, C#dim, G7, C, G7+5 run. (Whoosh!) Once you
can play that, the rest of the song is a cinch.


Chords:  G7+5 = xx1001, G#dim = xx0101,
     C/E = xx2010,
     1dim = xx1212, 2dim = xx2323 (don't know the names,
        but they're diminished chords)

Refrain:
C   G7  C   G7     C     G7  C    G7+5
