Chords for Could Have Been a Lady Lesson

Hi everybody, this is going to be Could Have Been a Lady by April Wine.
It's a pretty simple three chord song.
I'll start off here with the chords.
_ It's on the fifth string, fifth fret, pretty much the standard power [D] chord.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] Move it down to the third fret, same string, _ that's [C] C. _ _
_ [G] And then everything one string down, and that brings you down to a G.
_ _ [E] And then back to the [D] beginning. _ _ _ _ _ _
I'll just pull back here and I'll give you an idea of the picking pattern. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] So that's how he plays the song.
He plays the chord pattern for the first few times in [A] the song.
_ There's a lot of _ just [B] _ _ lifting your fingers off and not letting the [D] notes ring. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And then later on in the song he actually plays more of the notes.
So it sounds more like_ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ So [Gm] that's it for the main parts of the song.
Here's the other lick that he does in the song.
This goes almost all the way through the song.
_ [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ So that starts on the fifth string, third fret.
And then you just hammer it on to the fifth [C] fret. _
[D] _ _ _ And then [C] pick it once.
[D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ Fourth string. _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ One more time slowly.
[C] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
So those are the notes, but you have to use your wrist a lot and your palm [Fm] and your pick to make it [C] sound good.
_ [D] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ Okay, and then there's one more little _ lick that they do in the song.
And that starts here on the_
It's the same chords that you do in the song. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [A] _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [D] And that one is_
So if we're starting on the fifth fret D,
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [A]
you do the lick one string down, sixth string, fifth fret.
Then you hammer that on to the seventh fret.
_ _ _ First you pick it twice.
_ _ _ [D] _ _
[B] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] I'll do that once again slowly.
_ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [D] _ _ [B] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ Same thing down here, just two frets down.
And when he does the G chord, he doesn't actually_
[G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I'll show you one quick trick here that I do when I'm playing this song by [Ab] myself,
and I can't do both parts at [C] the same time.
I change this pattern here_
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ [E] to this.
_ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's a subtle difference, but it sort of lets you play the chords and do that little riff at the same time in between.
Now this isn't all that easy to do, and I'll probably screw it up as I'm trying to do it here.
But I'll show you how it sounds. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ [F] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ So that's a little more advanced, and it's kind of hard to make that sound smooth,
but that's something you can try.
Okay, so moving right along with the guitar solos here.
_ There's two guitar solos, and there's some slight differences between them,
so we'll go through each one of them.
I'll run through the first one here.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So we're starting up here on the 17th fret of the second string,
_ _ and there's two guitars actually playing the guitar solo at the same time,
so that's why it sounds weird when you hear it on the record.
_ _ _ Anyways, 17th fret.
We're going to bend that up two frets,
[Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
and then just release it to the note on its own.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ Once again, slowly. _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And then we're going to just bend this one up and down one [Fm] tone,
so it's just _ _ up to here.
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Once again.
[B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And then we're [Bm] ending it _ _ with_
[E] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So I'll run through it really slow, all the way through. _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
[E] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Alright, hope you got that.
And the second time around, he does a quick little lick at the beginning,
_ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] and that starts on the 14th fret.
14th fret of the third string.
And you're going to hammer that on _ _ two frets up, two frets higher,
and you're [Gb] ending on this 15th fret of the second string. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And then he goes right into that.
_ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
Now this time when he plays this part,
he goes, the second time through he'll _ _ [E] go_ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [Bm] I'll play through that again. _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And [Gb] then from there on it goes _ _ just like the first time. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ So that part again _ _ _ _ is_
_ [F] _ _ [E] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Alright, so I'll run through that whole second solo really [B] slowly.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
