In another posting of this song, it was said that the chords being played
were 'A' 'D' and 'C'. To get the Oasis sound the chords 'Bb' 'Eb' and 'C#'
should be used. These are most easily played by using an E bar chord.
Bar on the 6th fret for 'Bb'. E A D G B E
Bar on the 11th fret for 'Eb'. _______________________
Bar on the 9th fret for 'C#'. | x | x | x | x | x | x | Bar
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The tab must be played with the | | | | 2 | | |
bar chord version to sound good. |---|---|---|---|---|---|
Alternatively you could place a | | 3 | 4 | | | |
capo on the first fret and play |---|---|---|---|---|---|
'A' 'D' and 'C' and still use
the tab. E bar chord
If you are not worried about playing in a different key and decideto use the
'A' 'D' and 'C' version but want to play the tab then you will have to
play each note one fret down from those I have shown.
I hope this gives everyone an idea of how to play this song. By listening to
the song itself you will quickly get a feel for how it's played. Other little
riffs are played within the song but the same notes are stayed on throughout,
By listening carefully and tinkering with these notes you'll quickly pick up
the bits I haven't covered.
