HEY NOW - OASIS
 
The intro to this song changes chords quite weirdly, as you play the G for an extra beat before swapping to
the Em for 3 beats. Listen to the song, or even better the acoustic demo, to get a grasp of the strumming
pattern.
 
[Intro]
G Em x4
 
[Verse 1]
            G
I hitched a ride with my soul
 
By the side of the road
Em
Just as the sky turned black
         G
I took a walk with my fame
 
Down memory lane
  Em
I never did find my way back
 
              G
You know that I gotta say time's slipping away
Em
And what will it hold for me
        G
What am I gonna do while I'm looking at you
       Em
You're standing ignoring me
 
[Chorus]
Bb              Am              C
I thought that I heard someone say now
           G                 Bb
There's no time for running away now
A            G
Hey now! Hey now!
 
Em       G          Em         G
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain
Em       G          Em         D
Feel no shame
 
[Verse 2]
    G
The first thing I saw
 
As I walked through the door
      Em
Was a sign on the wall that read
            G
It said you might never know
 
That I want you to know
        Em
What is written inside of your head
 
    G
And time as it stands
 
Won't be held in my hands
   Em
Or living inside of my skin
          G
And as it fell from the sky
 
I asked myself why
      Em
Can I never let anyone in ?
 
[Chorus]
Bb              Am              C
I thought that I heard someone say now
           G                 Bb
There's no time for running away now
A            G
Hey now! Hey now!
 
Em       G          Em         G
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain
Em       G          Em         D
Feel no shame
 
[Solo]
G  Em
G  Em
Bb  A  C  G
Bb  A  G
 
Em       G          Em         G
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain
Em       G          Em         D
Feel no shame
 
[Verse 3]
            G
I hitched a ride with my soul
 
By the side of the road
Em
Just as the sky turned black
         G
I took a walk with my fame
 
Down memory lane
  Em
I never did find my way back
 
              G
You know that I gotta say time's slipping away
Em
And what will it hold for me
        G
What am I gonna do while I'm looking at you
       Em
You're standing ignoring me
 
[Last Chorus]
Bb              Am              C
I thought that I heard someone say now
           G                 Bb
There's no time for running away now
A            G
Hey now! Hey now!
 
Em       G          Em         G
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain
Em       G          Em         D
Feel no shame

If you listen to the song, during the verse after the Em chord there is a D chord used as a bridge between Em and G

Perfect tab at the original key. Thanks a lot

You can make the chorus part more exact by playing an open G-string throughout (and a held third-fret on the B-string)...and arpeggiating them. Bb6, A7sus4, Cadd9, G Bb6 = x-1-3-0-3-x A7sus4 = x-0-2-0-3-x Cadd9 = x-3-2-0-3-x G = 3-2-0-0-3-x (And I second the added D. )
