Funky Cold Medina Chords

Tone-Loc - Funky Cold Medina
 
This sheet lists literally every single strum in the song that is played. If no chord is written - it's N.C.,
no chord is played, if a chord is written it's a single strum like in the intro Riff. Listen while your
first playing through.    https:www.youtube.com/watch?v=63ZIf2H9S0E
 
First learn to play the Riff part. It's easy. Check out the real cool "guitar pro" version here on UG.
It consists of two different guitar samples. Only powerchords will be played. First is played on 3rd fret G,
then, I wrote // for two muted 16th strums before the next G (just lift your left hand slightly), F on 1st,
C on 3rd. For the last 4 strums C C F# G, I use the pickup switch to give it a different sound, go up to 8th
fret C, then slide from F# to G on 3rd fret. Do this every time C C F# G appears in verses and chorus.
 
I recommend using a drum machine at 118 bpm or use this drum video I found which has loud drums to jam with:

[Verse]
     G
Cold coolin at a bar, and I'm lookin for some action
 
But like Mike Jagger said, I can't get no satisfaction
    G
The girls are all around, but none of them want to get with me
                                           C      C      F# G
My threads are fresh and I'm lookin def, yo, what's up with L-o-see?
    G
The girls is all jockin at the other end of the bar
 
Havin drinks with some no-name chump, when they know that I'm the star
     G
So I got up and strolled over to the other side of the cantina
 
I asked the guy, "Why you so fly?" he said, "Funky Cold Medina"
 
 
[Chorus]
G  //G  //G   //F  C
                    Funky Cold Medina

[Verse]
     G
This brother told me a secret on how to get more chicks
 
Put a little Medina in your glass, and the girls'll come real quick
     G
It's better than any alcohol or aphrodisiac
                                          C      C      F# G
A couple of sips of this love potion, and she'll be on your lap
     G
So I gave some to my dog when he began to beg
 
Then he licked his bowl and he looked at me and did the wild thing on my leg
   G
He used to scratch and bite me, before he was much much meaner
 
But now all the poodles run to my house for the Funky Cold Medina
 
 
[Chorus]
G                          //G                                 //G                   //F        C
   You know what I'm sayin?    I got every dog in my neighborhood breakin down my door, I got Spuds McKenzie
G                 //G                      //G                         C C F# G
  Alex from Stroh's  They won't leave my dog alone with that Medina, pal
 
 
[Verse]
  G
I went up to this girl, she said, "Hi, my name is Sheena"
 
I thought she'd be good to go with a little Funky Cold Medina
    G
She said, "I'd like a drink, " I said, "Ehm - ok, I'll go get it"
                                                     C       C       F# G
Then a couple sips she cold licked her lips, and I knew that she was with it
    G
So I took her to my crib, and everything went well as planned
 
But when she got undressed, it was a big old mess, Sheena was a man
 
So I threw him out, I don't fool around with no Oscar Meyer wiener
 
You must be sure that the girl is pure for the Funky Cold Medina
 
 
[Chorus]
G           //G                         //G               //F            C
   You know,   ain't no plans with a man      This is the 80's, and I'm down with the ladies
G          //G  //G   C C F# G
    No Joke!
 
[Beat Only]

[Verse]
G
Back in the saddle, lookin for a little affection
 
I took a shot as a contestant on _The Love Connection_
    G
The audience voted, and you know they picked a winner
 
I took my date to the Hilton for Medina and some dinner
    G
She had a few drinks, I'm thinkin soon what I'll be gettin
 
Instead she started talkin 'bout plans for our weddin
        G
I said, "Wait, slow down, love, not so fast says, I'll be seein ya"
 
That's why I found you don't fool around with the Funky Cold Medina
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        //G                        //G    //F    C
  Ya know what I'm sayin,   That Medina's a monster, y'all       Funky Cold
   G  //G //G    C C F# G
Medina
