Chords with lyrics
"Sister Ray"
(John Cale - Sterling Morrison - Lou Reed - Maureen Tucker)
The Velvet Underground
White Light/White Heat, 1968
Now, it's impossible to even begin to tab this entire song. All you have to
remember, if you want to attempt playing it, is to just jam on what's
written here.
This is basically the entire song until it gets too atonal to tell what's
going on.
Many of the "tonal" guitar and/or organ riffs are over the G+G mixolydian
scale
(G-A-B-C-D-E-F-G). Around 11:30 into the song begins a distinct feedback
noise, which
is actually a C majorC note. Use that in your rendition if you want to.
Remember: distortion, distortion, distortion!
Here it is:
G+G FF C majorC

Have fun with this one! (How can't you?)
Cheers,
