Billy Joel - You May Be Right (1980)

Intro

A

Friday night I crashed your party

Saturday I said I'm sorry

	E
Sunday came and trashed me out a	gain

	Bm
I was	only having fun

	G
Wasn't	hurting anyone

	E	A
And we	all enjoyed the weekend for a	change

	A
I was	stranded in the combat zone

I walked through Bedford Sty alone

	E
Even rode my motorcycle in the	rain

	Bm
And you	told me not to drive

	G
But I	made it home alive

	E	A
So you	said that only proves that I'm in	sane

	E	A
You may be	right I may be	crazy

But it	just may be a	lunatic you're	looking for

	E	A
Turn out the	lights don't try to	save me

	D	E
You may be	wrong for all I	know

	A
But you may be	right

A

Remember how I found you there

Alone in your electric chair

	E
I told you dirty jokes until you	smiled

	Bm
You were	lonely for a man

	G
I said	take me as I am

	E	A
'Cause you	might enjoy some madness for a	while

	A
Now	think of all the years you tried to

Find someone to satisfy you

	E
I might be as crazy as you	say

	Bm
If I'm	crazy then it's true

	G
That it's	all because of you

	E	A
And you	wouldn't want me any other	way

	E	A
You may be	right I may be	crazy

	E	D	F#m	A
But it	just may be a	lunatic you're	looking for

When a soloist is available, play the chorus chorus,

and come out in a chorus with vocals.

For typical acoustic performance, let everything just

ring out in A minor for a while, then fade right into the verse.

And I	walk these streets, a loaded	six string on my	back

	Gadd9	D	C	A

Guns and Roses - Sweet Child o' Mine (1987)

I usually capo 3 for this, so it's just higher than an

octave down from the original.

I usually lead in witha slow rendition of the riff,

an octave down (open position).

Intro

D

She's got a smile that it seems to me

	C
Re	minds me of childhood memories

	G
Where e	verything

	D
Was as fresh as the bright blue	sky

D

Now and then when I see her face

	C
She	takes me away to that special place

	G
And if I'd	stare too long

	D
I'd	probably break down and cry

Soft, crescendo through the chorus

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o'	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet love of	mine

D

She's got eyes of the bluest skies

	C
As	if they thought of rain

	G
I'd	hate to look into those eyes

	D
And	see an ounce of pain

	D
Her	hair reminds me of a warm safe place

	C
Where	as a child I'd hide

	G
And	pray for the thunder and the rain

	D
To	quietly pass me by

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o'	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet love of	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o'	mine, oooh yeah

Heart - Alone (1987)

The original starts in Bbm. For a male

voice this works okay with the chorus an

octave down. For a human (i.e., non-Heart) female,

Gm is somewhat reasonable, so I play it in Em,

capo 3. A dude singing in Em works pretty well

too. If feeling less-than-great in Em, don't go

up to "got by" (which is a G), just stay on the

E. Similarly, sing the "how do i get you alone?"

on E,F,E→D instead of G,F,E→D.

Let the E ring out, then tempo up and into the closing riff.

When doing this acoustic, I like to hit the Em's on the and of 2, instead

of the and of 1 like the original. Spending an 8th note on D is a little

lame with a single acoustic.

Spoken over...

Am7	F	G	D
Darkness falls across the land the midnight hour is close at hand

Creatures crawl in search of blood to terrorise y'all's neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell and rot inside a corpse's shell

The foulest stench is in the air the funk of forty thousand years
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller

Peter, Paul, and Mary - El Salvador (1982)

Originally in E; I prefer it in E on guitar, but D vocally. If I'm feeling good, it's in E

A	B	G#m	C#m	A	B	E

Little Latin flourish on the 3rd and 4th strings, roughly G#m F#m

	E
There's a	sunny little country south of Mexico

	F#7
Where the	winds are gentle and the waters flow

	A	Am	E
But	breezes aren't the only	things that blow in El	Salvador

	E
If you	took the little lady for a moonlight drive

F#7

Odds are still good you'd come back alive

	A	Am	E	E7
But	everyone is innocent unt	il they arrive in El	Salvador

	A	B
If the	rebels take a bus on the	grand highway

	G#m	C#m
The	government destroys a village	miles away

	A
The	man on the radio says

B	E	E7
Now we'll play South of the	Border

A	B
And in the morning the	natives say

G#m	C#m
We're happy you have lived a	nother day

A

Last night a thousand more

B	E
Passed away in El Salva	dor

C#m	B
Oooh	Oooh

	E
There's a t	elevision crew here from ABC

F#7

Filming rio lempe and the refugees

A	Am	E
Calling murdered children the t	ragedy of El S	alvador

	E
Be	fore the government camera 20 feet away

F#7

Another man is asking for continued aid

A	Am	E	E7
Food and medicine and h	and grenades for El	Salvador

	A	B
There's a	thump, a rumble, and the	buildings sway

G#m	C#m
A soldier fires the	acid spray

	A
The	public address system

	B	E	E7
S	tarts to play South of the	Border

A	B
You run for cover and	hide your eyes

G#m	C#m
You hear the screams from	paradise

A	B
They've fallen further than you	realize

	C#m
In El Salva	dor

A	F#7	B
La	La	Ooh

Pause and ease into the next verse rubato

	E
Just like	Poland is protected by her Russian "friends"

	F#7
The	junta is assisted by Americans

	A	Am	E
And if	60 million dollars seems	too much to spend in El	Salvador

	E
They say	for half a billion they could do it right

F#7

Bomb all day, burn all night

	A	Am	E	E7
Unt	il there's not a living t	hing upright in El Sa	lvador

	A	B
They'll con-	tinue training troops in the	usa

G#m	C#m
And watch the nuns that	got away

A	B
And teach the military	bands

	E	E7
To play South of the	Border

A	B
And kill the people to	set them free

G#m	C#m
Who put this price on their	liberty?

A	B	A
Don't you think it's	time to leave El Salva	dor?

	G	Cadd9
Has he	ever felt like	this

But the scar, that scar rem	ains

Solo

G	Cadd9	G	Cadd9

Guitar only

G	Cadd9	G	Cadd9

G	Cadd9
I know I could have saved a love that night If I'd	known what to say

G	Cadd9
Instead of makin' love we both	made our separate ways

	G	Cadd9
And now I	hear you found somebo	dy new

	G	Cadd9
And	that I never meant that mu	ch to you

	D
To he	ar that tears me up inside

	Cadd9
And to	see you cuts me like a knife

I guess

G	Cadd9
Every rose has its	thorn

	G	Cadd9
Just like	every night has its	dawn

	G	D	Cadd9	G
Just like	every	cowboy sings his	sad, sad	song

Hanging end on "thorn"

Tom Petty - Free Fallin' (1989)

There's always some debate about whether the second chord in this

song is Dsus4 or G. The bass clearly plays G. I like to split the

difference and play Dsus4 in the verse, G in the chorus.

This song is originally played in D, capo 3, so really in F.

I like to play it either in D, no capo, so really in D, or capo 1,

so really in Eb.
