the riffs above marked with a (*) are the first two used
in the tune. i'm not going to do a bar for bar, note for note
transcription here. this is an excellent tune for aspiring
rockers to experiment with licks in the open position, key
of E. some other ideas you might try:
|--3p0----------|---------------|---------3---|
|------3p0------|---------------|-----3-----5-|
|----------2-0--|---------------|-2/4---4-----|
|---------------|-2p0-----------|-------------|
|---------------|-----2-1-0-----|-------------|
|---------------|-----------3b--|-------------|
etc. just pick the open E string twice, strum up on an
open E chord, and play a lick. with a little sinceriy
and a heckuva lotta tone, something as simple as this
has sold lots of records. stepping down from my soapbox-
the chorus is equally simple:
A E

Rock Candy
Montrose
Lord oh, yeah
When you need a friend through thick and thin
Don't look to those above you
When you're down and out, ain't no doubt
Nobody wants you
But you're rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky, yes
Rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky
Hard, sweet
When you're seventeen reachin' for your dreams
Don't let no one reach it for you
Pull up your pants,
Stretch out take a chance
If it can be done, you can do it
'Cause you're rock candy baby
You're hard, sweet and sticky, yes
Rock candy baby
So hard, sweet and sticky oh
Sweet , so sweet
You're rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky, yes
You, you're rock candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky
You are sweet
You're candy baby
Hard, sweet and sticky
Lord you are so
You're a candy baby oh
Hard, sweet and sticky
