Riders On The Storm

(Chords for acoustic guitar)

OK, it's my try to transport some magic of the original song

to one acoustic guitar. It's no real tab, just chords that

including melody. It can be variated in many ways.

To get right rhytm and melody listen the Second(!) verse of original.

At first, well known chords progression:

Verses: Em Am Em

Chorus: D C

How it plays:

Em

e-(0)-(0)-(0)-(0)---(0)-(0)-(0)---(0)-(0)-(0)---(0)-(0)-(0)-|

B--0---0---0---2-----2---2---3-----3---3---2-----2---2---0--|

G--0---0---0---2-----2---2---4-----4---4---2-----2---2---0--|

D--2---2---2---2-----2---2---2-----2---2---2-----2---2---2--|

A--2---2---2---2-----2---2---2-----2---2---2-----2---2---2--|

E--0---0---0---0-----0---0---0-----0---0---0-----0---0---0--|

Am

e-(0)-(0)-(0)-(0)---(0)-(0)-(0)--(0)-(0)--5-5-5--|

B--1---1---1---3-----3---3---1----1---1---3-3-3--|

G--2---2---2---4-----4---4---0----0---0---4-4-4--|

D--2---2---2---2-----2---2---2----2---2---4-4-4--|

A--0---0---0---0-----0---0---0----0---0---0-0-0--|

E------------------------------------------------|

Chorus chords are usual:

D C

e--2------0--|

B--3------1--|

G--2------0--|

D--0------2--|

A---------3--|

E--------(3)-|

+ Beatiful bunch that sounds at approx time 4.32 - 4.42:

D Em

e--2--0--| X several times

B--3--0--|

G--2--0--|

D--0--2--|

A-----2--|

E-----0--|

+ For the quiet part or Intro you can do something

bass-liked (same rhytm as Verse's!):

D...........................................................|

A--2---2---2---4-----4---4---5-----5---5---4-----4---4---2--|

E--0---0---0---0-----0---0---0-----0---0---0-----0---0---0--|

[or run one’s fingers over these two strings:]

[ D..................................| ]

[ A----2--4----4---5----5---4----4-4-| ]

[ E--0---0-------0--------0-------0--| ]

Then with Power:

G..................................|

D--2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-|

A--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

E----------------------------------| and back to quiet Em
