Status Quo
TPAOY 2005
For 'MIQNO' of the SQMB.
Firstly, some explaining must be done.
The intro does not actually consist of chords - just harmonic
intervals, so the naming of the chord is not to be taken literally.
As these intervals only consist of two notes (also known as diads)
the chord is simplified - a lot.
In fact, all the chords should be played as root
and fifths (also known as 'power chords').
Chords for intro:
Cb5 x34xxx
C5 x35xxx
B+5 x25xxx
B5 x24xxx
D5 x57xxx
OK, lets go for it...

and I washed my face[C][C#][D]

ride with me honey on the velvet train
ride with me honey on the velvet train
ride with me honey on the velvet train
ride with me honey on the velvet train
we be leaving when you're ready
if you just say yes
rolling down the line
destination happiness
tell me this and tell me no more
are you riding with me I got to know for sure
we can rock and roll and save our souls
so before we get too old
ride with me honey on the velvet train
ride with me honey on the velvet train
