What's the thing, Saturday?
What's the thing, now?
Well, I said, now.
[B] What's the [C] thing, Saturday, now, baby?
[B] [C] Oh.
Guess you better [Gm] slow.
What's [E] the thing, now?
[Ab]
[G] Oh, yeah.
I'm [Gm] gonna put it on a [Eb] little more time now.
[Am] [B] [C] I guess [Gm]
[C] [E] [B] [C] [B] I have to put the record on now.
I'm gonna record that.
[C]
[Gm] Okay, [Em] then the second chord we go [D] to [F] is F7.
[E] So, again, we're gonna slide from semitone below, from the E to the F.
[F]
Hit the chord, and then [Em] there's a riff.
[F]
[C] Okay, so slide into the F7 chord.
[F] Hit the chord.
Six on the A string to the eight.
[Abm] And then the next time you go to [F] the A, you start the [Em] riff over again.
[F]
[Ab] And then back to the [B] C [C] chord, [E] [B] [Cm] or C7, I should [Gm] say.
[G] Okay, then we go to the turnaround.
So the next thing is to go to the G7 chord.
Okay, one, two, three, [Ab] four, and there's a little bit that follows the [G] vocal line.
[F]
[G] Okay, so we're gonna slide from nine to ten, [F] twice, [G] and then get an F note there, [F] an eighth fret.
[G] And then we're back into [Ab] [B] the C [C] chord.
[B] [C]
[A] Now, on a lot of later versions of this track, it does a sort of [G] step down.
[Gb] [F] Like that.
But it doesn't on this version.
Okay.
Okay, now for the second guitar part.
This is quite a heavily muted sort of riff part.
I'll [C] just turn it on, see if I can get it to you quick enough.
What's being decided?
Guess you better show your mother's thing now.
Oh no.
What's being [Gm] decided?
[C] [Dm] [A] What's being [Bb] decided [F] now, baby?
[Bb] Oh,
[F] [Bb] better show your [C] mother's thing now.
[D] [Em] Turn it on, don't look down now.
Oh, [F] [C] I guess I [Am] have to put you back.
Take it all away.
[D]
When I [C] say that, I mean for you.
[B] Okay, let's have a look at this one then.
So again, with the eighth fret, I'm gonna slide from B to a C.
[C] Okay.
[G]
[A] There [Bb] [C] we go.
So slide from B to C.
And 10th fret on the A string to 7th fret on the [Am] D.
[G] Back to the A [Am] string.
[Bb] [G] Okay, I'll turn you out [B] slightly.
[C]
[E] [Ab] Okay, and then the second time around it does a, there's an extra note at the [B] end.
[C] [A]
[A] [B]
[C] [A] [Ab] [B]
[C] [A] [A] Second [Ab] time.
Now, when you're playing the notes on the D string, it's good as well if you can catch [Gm] the open G [D] in the [Ab] background.
So it sounds [B] like it [Cm]
[E] [B] [Gm] [Bm] [Am]
[Gm] [B] [A] [Gm]
[C] sounds a bit fast, but you get [B] the idea [Cm] anyway.
[E]
[A] [F] Okay, and then when we move to the [C] F7 chord, the riff takes the same, same, same format.
[Fm] [D]
[Eb] [E] [D] [Ab]
[Db] But it just starts on the F there, on the A string, and then we go back to the, [A] back to the C riff.
[E]
[Am] And then when it [N] goes to the G7, we do the same again.
And you can't really hear this on the record until it gets towards the end of the track, maybe on the third time through.
And then you can hear, you can hear the guitar doing this, the second guitar [Gb] doing this.
[Em] [Gb] [Gm] [Am] [Dm] [Am]
[C] [F] And then we go [C] back to, back to the C again.
[A]
[E] [C] [A] Okay.
[Eb] [Am]
