A
guitar, some ears...
...and some dedication
to a cause, and you end up with an unofficial guide to the guitar
tabs
for Brent’s songs from the training episode.
I have no idea
what all this stuff means, generally, but until I get any complaints,
here’s
the most complete list I’ve seen to date of how to play the
songs as created by the hardworking Liam Tarry! And with a new
version of Paris Nights by Martin Bow!
Intro C F Am G x 2
C F Am G
Pretty girl on the hood of a Cadillac now
C F Am G
She’s broken down on freeway 9
C F Am G
I take a look and her engines started,
C F Am G
I leave her purring
and I roll on by....bye bye
Chorus
C F Am G (follow it throughout)
Free love on the freelove freeway,
The love is free and the freeways long
I got some hot love on the hot love highway
Going home coz my baby’s gone – she’s gone
Play intro
(Same chords)
A little while
later, see a senorita,
She’s caught a flat trying to make it home,
She says “Por favor, can you pump me up?”
I say “Muchos gracias, adios. Bye Bye.”
Chorus
Play intro
(Strum the chords ONCE throughout this verse)
Long time baby see a cowboy crying
She says "hey buddy, what can I do?"
He says “I lived a good life I’ve had about a thousand
women”
I said why the tears – he says coz none of them was you
Chorus X 2
She’s gone yeah, my baby’s gone, she’s
gone yeah, gone away,
She’s gone…………yeah.
Repeat this, its just
a guide, play around and you will get it!
Spaceman came down to answer some things,
The world gathered round from paupers to kings,
I’ll answer your questions,
I’ll answer them true,
I’ll show the way you know what to do,
Who is wrong and who is right?
Yellow, brown, black or white?
The spaceman he answered “You’ll no longer mind,
I’ve opened your eyes, you’re now colour blind.”
UPDATE: Reckon
you can cope with something a bit more in depth?
Then have a look
at Steve Atkin’s Spaceman’s Tabs here!
(Strum each
chord once)
Am F
A rose, you never used your thorns
Am G
The ones you loved abandoned you
Am F
Your angel face made hearts so warm
Am G
You helped the sick but who helped you ?
(strum downwards on each chord quickly - quite rocky)
Am F
Then rushing through the Paris night
Am G
They hounded you, you lost control
Am F
We prayed that you would be alright
Am G
The news came through - Your body cold...
C F G
(Chorus) Good night, my sweet princess...
Martin Bow
