the song starts on Em barre, then just one time Cm(barre), then to Am(barre) then to G
then to D.
You'll need to listen to figure out thw thing with the Cm-change from Em to Am.
She said I like just lying on the bed
Beneath the ceiling with her head upon my pillow
There's nothing as I'd rather do
And I said I'd rather do it on the couch
Or in the kitchen where about
You seem so down child
Like nothing could destroy your world
But I never ever wanted to
You never ever let me to
I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark
So what is it that you want me to
I can't make it even good for you
So play me some from 1954
Long Before Rock 'n' Roll
Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll
Before Rock 'n' Roll
between the verses:
Well later she came with flowers in her arms
And we can do it in the car my brother owns it
The driver's seat is made for us
And I said I'd rather grab a bite to eat
There is a diner down the street
Let's take it easy
And join this lovely harmony
But I never ever wanted to
You never ever let me to
I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark
So what is it that you want me to
I can't make it even good for you
So play me some from 1954
Long Before Rock 'n' Roll
Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll
Long Before Rock 'n' Roll
Long Before Rock'n'Roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
during outro play:
end on D
there's not much diffrence to the album version,
just an other strumming pattern
and the main riff.
as well as in the album version there are couple of diffrent organ fill ins i couldn't
'em but
to me they sound like kind of arpeggios of the played chords
