Cocaine
Subject: Cocaine by Eric Clapton (was REQ)
I can do chords and lyrics. As far as tab goes, the solos are improvised
over the blues scale in E.
COCAINE by J. J. Cale
EEDE ED
(the main riff is , -- play that twice over each
line of the verses)
If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out, cocaine.
If you wanna get down, down on the ground, cocaine.
E D C B
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie
Cocaine!
If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues, cocaine.
When your day is done and you wanna run, cocaine.
Chorus
If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on, cocaine.
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back, cocaine.
Chorus
