Chords for Interview with Stevie Ray Vaughan

[Eb] _ _ If you [N] remember the classic Barry single [Eb] let's dance this man played the guitar solo now
It's six years and four million album sales later
[F] Stevie _ Ray Vaughan is widely regarded as one of the best guitarists in [Eb] the world
As I was hearing the original blues masters
from the States
_ I was also
[Db] Hearing the [F] English blues boom at the same time.
So not only was I getting the original but [Eb] I was getting this _
[Db] Updated [G] energized version of the same thing
So I had less
reservations and less reasons to be so-called a purist and
Therefore I wasn't as restricted about what I could learn.
Show me how you combine the two those that
60s Mersey beat is what you're talking about
_ Blues so much but but like for instance, okay, [Eb] Freddie King does how to wear like
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Gb] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ a
[Bb] Clapton does it like [Ab] [Eb] this?
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] _ You [Gm] know, there's a small difference there you want a [N] Grammy for the best blues instrumental the other year, right?
Which is really big deal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What was that?
I believe it was for rude mood
we've been nominated like seven times rude mood and
It's it's actually a takeoff of a light and Hopkins thing
_ Like _ a
thing called lightning sky hop, which is it's a takeoff of it and I
Guess it's you know, it's just it's just mean and it sounds like a rude mood.
[Ebm] Yeah _
_ _ [Abm] _ _ [Ebm] _ _ [A] _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ [Db] _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ That's my favorite [Ab] note
[Ebm] Stevie _ _ Ray's [Eb] current triumphant European tour may never have happened two years ago [Db] despite increasing success
Born was in the grip [Ab] of long-standing drug and alcohol [Eb] addiction.
[Gb] He was near death before he decided [Eb] to take action.
I
Woke up one morning
[G] on a tour bus in Germany, I
Couldn't hardly get up I
Was scared of everything my friends
Just being awake.
I was scared.
I
Tried to say hi to my bass player and I started crying.
I
was a wreck and I
Realized right then that the only way to win this thing was to give up and I did what do you do?
I had a breakdown
Yeah that thank God that happened because
Then I was able to ask for help as opposed to I'll make it through this
Yeah, I'll make it through it if I ask for help is the reality of it
It's a myth that people are huge superhuman that when you see someone on stage the obvious the obvious
First thought is that these people are bigger than life and stronger than life
That's why they're so special to go see
You know part of the guitar hero myth, isn't it?
Yeah, it's a it's a myth
[Abm] What do you think about that?
I mean look what it did look what it did with their with Eric Clapton
Yeah, people were calling God and he went wait a minute.
I'm human
You well, one of the things that led on to apart from your own success is you you've played with Stevie Wonder
incorporated a lot
Thank you for that one
Stevie Wonder I've been a fan of his since I can remember
[Eb] _ _ Since primary school
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Eb] _
First we did
okay, we [Ebm] did our version on the live album and mixed [Eb] it in studio in the studio and
Out of result from that
he liked he liked what we had done and
The next time he recorded he calls me up and asked me to play on the characters album so
Out of that comes
Also playing on the comic on the characters the special the MTV special.
[F] They'd be all right
Let's well, you know the difference in the fields were how is your version feel?
Ours was [Ebm] like, you know _ _ _
