Queen - Friends will be friends
Standard tuning
tabbed by: Patrick Merl (remarks? suggestions? pmerl@hushmail.com)
Remark: I think it's optional for the lead guitar to play chords too. This
tab is designed for two guitars (Rhytm guitar plays the chords,
E-guitar plays the riffs). Nevertheless, here are the chords:
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Verse 1: (after Intro, until "... but you got friends you can trust")
G, D/F# (2xx232), Em, Bm, G7, C, Am, D, G, B7, Em, G7, Am, D
Chorus: (after verse 1, until "...right till the end")
C. A, G, Em, D, Ebdim (xx1212), Em, Em/D# (xx1xxx), A7, C, D
Verse 2: (after 0:56 riff, until "...cos' you got friends you can trust")
same chords as the first part
Chorus: (after Verse 2, until "...right till the end")
see above
Chorus: (at 2:30 "it's so easy now..." until "...right till the end" at 2:57)
Am,D,...,D
Chorus+Outro: (from 2:58 until 3:55)
C, A, G, Em, D, Ebdim (xx1212), Em, Em/D# (xx1xxx), A7, C, D, G
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
And now, here are the riffs. The only trick is, to play very very smoothly.
