[Sticky] ESD - Requests

I just found, and been playing Nils' version of the Ben E King song "Stand by me". Somehow while playing this, a song from the 60's popped into my thoughts, and I can't remember who did it! I'm thinking Yardbirds or Turtles. It has a nice easy guitar intro that I've already figured out. As for the rest of the song, the lyrics start off "It's a hard world to get a break in, all the good things have been taken". Later on the chorus it go's "it's my life and I'll do what I want, it's my mind and I'll think what I want, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I also seem to remember a line "I'm gonna ride the serpent" or "I'm gonna ride the dragon". Thanx, Gary

Now I think it was The Animals.
Your right it is the Animals and the song is called "Its My Life"

Here is Quite an easy version http://www.tabpower.com/s777.html

Thanx. I googled it like Big Lars suggested and found this. I only looked quickly, but they seem the same. Thanx agin, Gary

Thanks :D

Thanks, what about the strum pattern?

Try a simple "Down-down up down"?

Thanks shady, will do!

Does anyone konw the chords to play during the long solo? Main chord PATTERn i've got for the song is G/D/Em/F/C/Dsus4/d//Dsus4/d/Dsus4/d. I think it's some variation of the main chords but can not work it out.

G D Em F C Dsus4/d/Dsus4/d/Dsus4/d/
If i leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me

Like above for the main part of the song. Just unsure of the chords for the solo.

Thanks Mark

Most of the solo is played over a different riff - something like G, Bb and C. Been a while since I've played it, so I'd have to look it up, but basically that's it. The lead into it is something like this:

(F)Lord, (C)help me, I can't (D)cha-a-a-a-a-a-a-ange.....

(G)Lord, I (Bb)can't (C)change,
Won't you (G)fly-(Bb)y (C)Freebird,

Then just keep repeating the G Bb and C chords over and over and over and over again ad nauseam ad infinitum or until your hand drops off.

:D :D :D

+1 what Vic said. Just listen for the little strum pattern changes and make sure you barre the G and the C. IMHO, they sound a bit better than open for this.

....and +1 what Roy said! Because it's easier to go from a barred G, at the third fret, to slide the same chord up three frets for the Bb, then a further two for the C, then down five back to the G.

:D :D :D

Does anybody have a tab for Grateful Dead's Box of Rain. I'm an old Deadhead but a beginner guitarist so if you could tab real slooooow, it would be nice.

Thanks,

Anybody have a tab for Steve Earle's "Devils Right Hand"

If possible, I'd like to request "cherry, cherry" by Neil Diamond...seems like it's just open chords and strumming...
