Godzilla Tab

Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult

This is just the chord progression for the song, sorry no solos, but there are other
that have the solo parts, but most of the other tabs don’t have the correct chord
 We used to play this "back in the day" and the chords work when playing with the 
 These older "Metal" bands used barre chords for most of their stuff so your best bet is to
them, and the lower the octave the better; you'll get a deeper, grittier sound.  It's 
really late and the tabs don't paste well from my version of Word, so if there's any 
please note!  Thanks and enjoy!

Intro and verses:

  (hold 3 beats)   slide     slide 
  slide     (play 4x)

                                    slide 
With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
G#sA                           EbsE      A F#  BsC#  G#sA  EbsE A
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down
                       slide 
Helpless people on a subway train
G#sA                        EbsE  A  F#  BsC#  G#sA  EbsE A
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them
                                  slide 
He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
G#sA                              EbsE               A  F# BsC#  G#sA  EbsE A
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town

Chorus:

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
           
Go, Go! Godzilla, yeah!

Oh no, there goes Tokyo
           
Go! Go! Godzilla, yeah!

Repeat Intro 4x, then Chorus again
Bass solo followed by vocals (in Japanese)

Guitar lead-in to Chorus repeat final time:

Chorus 1x, intro 2x
Ending 4x end on F#:
F#                       BsC# G#sA
History shows again and again how nature points out the folly
EbsE   A  F#   BsC#  G#sA  EbsE A
