AC/DC tune from the "Last Action Hero" soundtrack. Terrible movie but good soundtrack (although, admittedly, the dog scene ranks among the top 20 funniest movie scenes of all time -- the movie's only redeeming feature). Two guitars in this one -- guitar 1, which plays Riff A and all the solos, is a clean electric. Guitar 2, which plays the rest, is distorted. To get it "officially," use both guitars; if it doesn't matter (probably), one will do fine. Lyrics are questionable at best since I can barely hear them -- might want to see a doctor about that throat. --- David Braue (dbraue@pearl.tufts.edu) =========================== cut here ============================ Riff A: 2x in the intro -GUITAR 1=>-3---0----0--0-------|-----------3---0---0------------ ------------------3--------3--0-|-----------------3-----3\------- --------------------------------|-------------------------------- --2--2--<==GUITAR 2-------------|--2--2-------------------------- --2--2--------------------------|--2--2-------------------------- --0--0--------------------------|--0--0-------------------------- Riff B: (play once with each line of lyrics) ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- --------0-------------------------------------------------------- ------2-----0-4---0-2---0-4-----2-------------------------------- --0-0-----0-----0-----0-----0-3---3------------------------------ I'm playing on the radio Pictures on the TV And every man take a-what he can Shoot 'em on the silver screen Riff C: (same timing as above) ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- --------0-------------------------------------------------------- ------2-----0-4---0-2---0-4-----2-------------------------------- ----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-3---3------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------- Stickin' the law, knockin' them down Livin' out a fantasy Riff B with: There's a bad man cruisin' around In a big black limousine Riff D: | | | | || | | | | | B(vii) A(v) B(vii) Don't let it be wrong, don't let it be right A(v) G(iii) D#/F Em Give into spite, and double your sights ====== CHORUS ====== Riff A with: Big gun -- big gun, number one Big gun ----------------------------------- G ----------------------------------- T ----0------------------------------ R ------2--0------------------2------ --------------2P0---2-0------------ # -------------------------3--0------ 2 Big gun, can you hit on the loon (I SAID I couldn't hear the words!)
