HOW TO FINGER THE CHORDS:

C D7 G6 G Em Bm Cmaj7 Am7 B7 G6add9

o o o oooo ooo o ooo ooo o o

||||*| ||||*| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||*| ||*||| ||||||

||*||| |||*|* |*|||| |*|||| |**||| |||||* ||*||| ||**|| |*|*|* |***||

|*|||| |||||| *||||| *||||* |||||| ||||*| **|||| |||||* |||||| *|||**

||**||

The fingering for the G6add9 is a bit awkward so you may want to just

play it as a G major chord, although it doesn't sound as good.

-VERSE 1-

n.c. C D7

This happened once before When I came to your door

G6

No reply

C D7

They said it wasn't you But I saw you peep through

G

Your window

Em Bm

I saw the light

Cmaj7 Bm

I saw the light

Am7 D7

I know that you saw me 'Cause I looked up to see

G

Your face

-VERSE 2-

C D7

I tried to telephone They said you were not home

G6

That's a lie

C D7

'Cause I know where you've been I saw you walk in

G

Your door

Em Bm

I nearly died

Cmaj7 Bm

I nearly died

Am7 D7

'Cause you walked hand in hand With another man

G

In my place

(Go to CODA after second time through VERSE 2)

-BRIDGE-

G B7 E

If I were you I'd realize that I

Am C G

Love you more than any other guy

G B7 E

And I'll forgive the lies that I

Am C G

Heard before when you gave me no reply

(Repeat VERSE 2)

CODA

Em Bm

Cmaj7 G6add9

No reply

I'm a Loser.

(Lennon/McCartney)

Am7 D7

I'm a loser, I'm a loser,

Am7 F D7

And I'm not what I appear to be.

G Dm F G

Of all the love I have won or have lost

Dm F G

There is one love I should never have crossed.

Dm F G

She was a girl in a million my friend,

Dm F G

I should have known she would win in the end.

Chorus:

Am7 D7 Am7 D7

I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me

G Em Am7 F D7

I'm a loser, and I'm not what I appear to be.

Although I laugh and I act like a clown

Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown.

My tears are falling like rain from the sky

Is it for her or myself that I cry

Chorus.

What have I done to deserve such a fate

I realise I have left it too late.

And so it's true pride comes before a fall

I'm telling you so that you don't lose all.

Chorus.

Baby's in black

[E]Oh dear, [B7]what can I do, [A]baby's in black, and [B7]I'm feeling blue

Tell me [E]oh, [A]what can I [E]do [B7]

[E]She thinks of him and [E7]so she dresses in [A]black

And [A]though he'll never come [E]back [B7]she's dressed in [E]black

[E]Oh dear, [B7]what can I do, [A]baby's in black, and [B7]I'm feeling blue

Tell me [E]oh, [A]what can I [E]do [B7]

[E]I think of her, but [E7]she thinks only of [A]him

And [A]though it's only a [E]whim [B7]she thinks of [E]him

[C#m]Oh how [F#]long will it take /[A] till she [B7]sees the mistake she has

[E]Oh dear, [B7]what can I do [A]baby's in black, and [B7]I'm feeling blue

Tell me [E]oh, [A]what can I [E]do [B7]

[E]She thinks of him and [E7]so she dresses in [A]black

[E]Oh dear, [B7]what can I do [A]baby's in black, and [B7]I'm feeling blue

Tell me [E]oh, [A]what can I [E]do [B7]

ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC

written and performed by Chuck Berry

tab transcribed by Collins Crapo

A7

Just let me hear some of that...

CHORUS:

D

Rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

G

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

D

Any old time you use it

A7

It's gotta be rock and roll music

D

If you wanna dance with me

A7 D

If you wanna dance with me

Verse 1:

A

I have no kick against modern jazz

A7 D

Unless you try to play it too darn fast

G

I lose the beauty of a melody

A7

Until it sounds just like a symphony

That's why I go for that...

(chorus)

Verse 2:

I took my love on over 'cross the tracks

So she could hear a man a-wailin' sax

I must admit they had a rockin' band

And they were blowin' like a hurrican'

That's why I go for that...

(chorus)

Verse 3:

Way down south they gave a jubilee

And Georgia folks, they had a jamboree

They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup

The folks dancin' got all shook up

And started playin' that...

(chorus)

Verse 4:

Don't get to hear 'em play a tango

I'm in no mood to take a mambo

It's way too early for the congo

So keep on rockin' that piano

So I can hear some of that...

MR. MOONLIGHT

By: The Beatles

Album: Beatles for sale (1964), also Anthology 1, DC

Transcribed by Shad0w

I couldn't find any music to this in my music books so I chorded

this myself with 'dsChordFinder'. This is the 'Beatles for Sale'

version, this song is also released on the album Anthology 1

but it has not got 'And now she is mine...' instead

replacing it with another 'On the nights you don't come my way...'.

It is in F# on the record but I transposed it to G for easier

reading.
