Chords for ♪♫ Eddie Cochran - Twenty Flight Rock (Tutorial)

_ _ _ G'day guys, I just uploaded a cover of [F#] Eddie Cochran's 20 Flight Rock [C] and I thought I'd better knock over a [G#] tutorial for it quickly as well
_ _ [E] This one's great play.
It's only three chords [D] A [E] D and E _
But obviously it's a little bit tougher than just doing that because you've got all these little
_ [A] _ _ _ [E] nice little riffs going on so _ let's start straight away into the
_ [G] main part [A] A
_ bar across your A
_ Pretty much only going to be playing the middle strings here [E] fifth fourth and third
_ so
_ _ Just bar across with your second [C] finger third finger.
Then it's going to come up onto the fifth string third fret
[C#] _ _ [G#] Then you're gonna hammer on with your [G] fourth finger onto the fourth fret [A] so it's _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Get this _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] If you can't [A#m] manage that hammer just go straight [E] to the fourth
[C#] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ so
And then _
_ _ [C#] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ [E] _ hit the fourth and third _ so _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ [G] I'm much more untidy when I play it that's the technical way [A] to do it _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
Hitting strings all over the place, but um correctly
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [C#] _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
That's for the A riff now for the D
[D] _
_ _ Shape your D.
You're not actually ever gonna hit the top string really, but I [E] still out of habit
Put my finger there anyway, it doesn't matter pinky is gonna be doing a bit of work here on the fourth fret fourth [D] string _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] Exactly the same [E] thing [F#] if you can slide from the third [G#] to the fourth if you [F#m] can manage _ [D] I usually don't find that too hard
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#]
So it's exactly the [E] same thing just down a set of strings really [F#]
so
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] Back down to the A again
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
same riff
_ [Am] Exactly the same again now down on the E.
Just literally _ _ down one [E] set of strings
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] The hammer this [G] time is gonna be on the sixth string
[F] _ _ [G] _
Hitting the third [G#] hammer to the [E] fourth _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D#] _ Then down to the [A] A again. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] Just do it very slowly with the [E] lyrics
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ All alone I can hold it tight
Just doing some muted strums there
All alone I can hold it tight
She lives on the 24th floor uptown
The _ elevator's broken [G#] down
_ Running up the sixth string into the chorus here
[F#m] From [G#] second to [A] fourth
_ _ Into the chorus part
_ Now it's the same chords just going from [D] the A to the [A] D
[E]
A, [D] _ E, [C] D and back to the A
[F#] But _ all the work's gonna be on the fourth [E] fret
So I'm gonna hit the fourth fret _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And hit this
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [G] So you're gonna [A] be
_ _ _ Straight to the fourth fret on the fifth
_ _ [F#m] And then straight to the fourth fret [E] on the fourth
And then up stroke _
_ From the third
_ [A] Back to the fourth string on the fourth
Back [C#] to the fifth string on the [A] fourth
So you get _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ Right
[E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [F] And take that down [G] now to the D
And you're gonna [F#m] be going from the fourth
[G#] On your D again from the [E] fourth fret
[D] From the fourth to the third and back this time _ _ Fourth _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Third to the fourth
Fourth to the third, third to the fourth _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Back to the [A] A
_ Down _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
to the E _ _ _ _ _
_ Back to [D] the D
_ To _ _ _ _ [A] _ the A
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
Back to the first string _
[E] So you can see it's all on that fourth fret Fourth [A] fret _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
So [A] I watch
One, two, fly
Three, fly, four
_ Five, six, [E]
seven, fly
Eight, fly, four
[D] _ _
Twelve, _ I'm starting to drag [A] _ Fifteen
Four, I'm starting to sag
[E] Eight to the top
[D] And I'm too [A] tired to run _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
Okay
_ Then in the middle there's a solo
Which I wouldn't have a clue [A] what the solo is
So I'm literally _ improvising _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] Just doing a bit of those
You know, a bit of whatever
[A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ Do [E] whatever you want
It's literally the same chord progression
Same chords and same riff
[G#] _
I [E] throw in there a little
_ _ [D] _
_ _ Jazz [G#] it up a bit
[G] If you want to do that
Up on the _ _ _
_ On [E] the fifth string, seventh fret
_ _ _ _ Sixth fret
On the fourth string
_ _ _ Seventh fret on _ the
[Gm] _ _ _ _
_ Third string
_ _ [E] _ _
And you're gonna
[D#] _ _ _ [C] Slide it [E] down one fret
_ _ _ [F#] Then come down two frets
_ Slide [E] it down one fret _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ Back [A] into you _ _
_ Instead of solo I go _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#] That's probably not right at all
But that's just what I do
I think it [G] sounds alright
_ _ _ But that's all you need for Twenty Flight Rock
It's just those riffs
Just [E] mess around with that
Going [A] from the fourth
All [G] those fourth _ [A] fret handholds _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
You could probably play fifty [F#] million other fifties songs
With [G] exactly the same riff
It's literally all the [E] same _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ [B] _ _ [E] _
_ It's good
Anyway _ _
Hope that's enough for Twenty Flight Rock
There you [G] go,
