Tonight! that "?" chord is, or if
it's correct!]
[SOLO over chords B C#m A B]
[VERSE 1 repeat]
[Pre-chorus repeat]
[Chorus repeat]
Here, song goes to an "A", then starts alternating between "F#" and "E",
then Liam starts singing "It's just rock and roll" and the alternation
between "F# and "E" starts getting faster, and that's the end of the song.
Enjoy!!
By the way, if anybody has a take on that verse riff in this song that
sounds better than the one I've got, please send it to me.
2ºversão:
ROCK 'N' ROLL STAR by Oasis (well .. Noel Gallagher)
=================== from "Definitely Maybe"
Its taken me ages to figure out that he goes to Ab at the
bridge type bit (pre-chorus). He throws in these unexpected
chords fairly often it seems (see the Supersonic transcription at
OLGA which is fine except it goes to D not E on the chorus as is
written).
Most (if not all) of the chords are barred, the B at the
7th and theres a lot of taking off of the barre (fore) finger so it
adds an E and an A. Other than that just turn up the overdrive.
intro: B (mess around) then B A->E B
B
I live my life in the city - there's no easy way out
A E B
The days moving just too fast for me,
B
Need some time in the sunshhyynnnnne - gotta slow it right down
A E B
The days moving just too fast for me.
Ab E
I live my life for the stars that shine
B
People say its just a waste of time
Ab E
When they said I should just feed my head
B
That to me was just a day in bed
Ab E
I'll take my car and drive real far
B
To where they're not concerned about the way we are
A
In my mind my dreams are real
F#
Are you concerned about the way I feel ?
A E B
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
A E B
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
A E B
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star.
Then: repeat the whole of above until :
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
A E B
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star.
A
Are you down with who I am
E
Look at you'll now you're all in my hands - tonight.
solo: over verse chords (B A E)
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night I'm a rock'n'roll star.
