SONG: Liverpool 8 ALBUM: Liverpool 8 BY: Ringo Starr & Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) YEAR: 2008 TABBED BY: Nadja Dee Witherbee STANDARD TUNING E-A-D-G-B-e Note: I figured out an easy version of this simple, but great new Ringo Starr song. (Ringo of the Beatles!) It sounds best to use barre chords. Mainly it's just a progression of: E x76454 (4th fret) B 799877 (7th fret) C#m 446654 (4th fret) A 577655 (5th fret)
Play the intro verse chords e----4----7- B---5----7-- G-4-----8--- D-6-----9--- A----------- E----------- INTRO VERSE: I was a sailor first [E(4th fret)] I sailed the sea [B(7th fret)] Then I got a job [E(4th fret)] In a factory [B(7th fret)][C#m][A] Played Butlins Camp [E(4th fret)] With my friend Rory [B(7th fret)][C#m][A] It was good for him [E(4th fret)] It was great for me [B(7th fret)] CHORUS: [E] Liverpool I [B] left you Said good[C#m]bye to Madryn [A] Street [E] I always followed [B] my heart And I [C#m] never missed a [A] beat [E] Destiny was [B] calling I just [C#m] couldn't stick a[A]round [E] Liverpool I left you But I [C#m] never let you [A] down Little guitar solo bit e------------- B-0----------- G--1---------- D---2-4-2-2--- A------------- E------------- --And that's pretty much it. It repeats in the next verse and chorus. I'm not the best guitarist but I think it gets the song across... the universe, so to speak.
