For the intro do either this riff:
E|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------7---5--------| 2 times
D|-----------------------------7---5---7----|
A|----------------------3------5---3---7----|
E|----0--3--5----0-3-5----5------------5----|
or try with chords (very fast) E G A E G A C-A D C A 2 times
This is the main riff.
D A
Listen woman you needn't look so stupid when I call your name out loud
D A
'Cause everybody thinks you're a sweet smelling girl with intelligence and you know how
G D
I wouldn't want anyone else to know
G D
About the way you really are
A
You're just a rock and roll queen
G
You know what I mean
D G-A
And I'm just a rock and roll star
play the main riff again
D A
Listen woman you needn't go to bed with everybody that you meet
D A
'Cause everybody thinks you're a sweet little girl with intelligence in your feet
G D
I wouldn't want anyone else to know
G D
About the way you really are
A
You're just a rock and roll queen
G
You know what I mean
D G-A
And I'm just a rock and roll star
try riffs like
e:---------------------|
B:---------------------|
G:---14-14-14-14---12--|
D:---------------------|
A:---------------------|
E:---------------------|
Alright!
do the solo firstly over main riff and
then over some weird chord changing I do not really know
(I think it's somethin with A and G)
drum break -- main riff
2nd solo over main riff-6 times and
then over the part I like most:
A G D
You're just a rock and roll queen
You know what I mean
And I'm just a rock and roll star
-fade out-
Ain't it a great tune?
:-)
