Livin In The City Tab

by The Casanovas


This band is a mix between AC/DC and The Ramones. But this song is kick-ass
and sounds just like AC/DC. It's played at the regular E-A-D-G-B-E tuning.
This song is pretty easy.

Verse 1
-------3--3----3--------|
-------3--3-3--3-3------|
---2-2-0--0-2--0-2-2-2--| Play the intro this way 3 times.
---2-2-0--0-0--0-0-2-2--|
---0-0-x--x----x---0-0--|
-------3--3----3--------|

Then on the fourth:
-------3--3---|-3-------|
-------3--3-3-|-3-3-----|
---2-2-0--0-2-|-0-2-----| Play the last two chords hard and let ring.
---2-2-0--0-0-|-0-0-----|
---0-0-x--x---|-x-------|
-------3--3---|-3-------|

Now the drums are playing. Repeat verse 1 and then go on to verse 2.

Verse 2:
-------3--3----3--------|
-------3--3-3--3-3------|
---2-2-0--0-2--0-2-2-2--|  Play this 8 times, but palm mute for the first 4.
---2-2-0--0-0--0-0-2-2--|
---0-0-x--x----x---0-0--|
-------3--3----3--------|

Verse 3 or pre-bridge:

-----------------------------3--3---3---------------|
-------------------------2-2-0--0-3-0-3-2-2---------|
--5-5-7-7-5--7-7-9-9-7---2-2-0--0-2-0-2-2-2---------|
--3-3-3-3-3--5-5-5-5-5---0-0-x--x-0-x-0-0-0---------|  2x
-----------------------------3--3---3---------------|
-----------------------------3--3---3---------------|

Verse 4 or Bridge to chorus:

--------------------3-3-3-3-3-3-3--------|
--------------------3-3-3-3-3-3-3--------|
--------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------|
----2-2-2-2-2-2-2---0-0-0-0-0-0-0--------|
----2-2-2-2-2-2-2---x-x-x-x-x-x-x--------|
----0-0-0-0-0-0-0---3-3-3-3-3-3-3--------|

Chorus:

-------3--3---3---------|
-------3--3-3-3-3-------|
---2-2-0--0-2-0-2-2-2---|
---2-2-0--0-0-0-0-2-2---| play the riff this way 4 times
---0-0-x--x---x---0-0---|
-------3--3---3---------|


on the fifth:
-------3--3---|--3------|
-------3--3-3-|--3--3---|
---2-2-0--0-2-|--0--2---| Once again, play the last to chords hard and
---2-2-0--0-0-|--0--0---| let ring.
---0-0-x--x---|--x------|
-------3--3---|--3------|

Play what is written above two times. When I get the solo, I will post it as soon
as possible. The ending is just verse 2 played over and over again with no palm mutes.
