Strumming

Edit

Are these strumming patterns correct?

Instead of playing palm muted power chords during the verse you can play the respective
open chords as well, sounds just as good :)
 
 
[Intro] (all palm muted powerchords)
 
D5                         G5
   Feel the fire where she walks
     A5              D5
Lola Montez so beautiful
                     G5
shady and a tempered dame
              A5                   D5
blinding your eyes with her spider dance
 
 
[Interlude]
 
D G A D x2
(let ring second time)
 
 
[Verse 1] (all palm muted)
 
D5                     G5           A5              D5
   Her perfomance utterly erotic subversive to all ideas
                     G5                 A5             D5
and for public morality and cool as she was she didn't care
                        G5               A5                        D5
see the miner throw his gold lifting her skirt howling loud like a wolf
                         G5                A5                      D5
hell raising and full of sin when lola was dancing and showing her skin
 
 
[Chorus] (open chords, strumming "down_down-up_up-down-up")
 
              G
Whereever she walks
         A       D              Bm    G
she will be captivating all the men
                  A
don't look in her eyes
          D    A   Bm   A                G
you might fall and find the love of your life
      A             D                Bm    G
heavenly but she'll catch you in her web
                 A          D
the love of your life, yeah-eah

   Feel the fire where she walks
        A5           D5
Lola Montez so beautiful
                     G5
shady and a tempered dame
              A5                   D5
blinding your eyes with her spider dance
 
                      G5
Well notorious I have been
              A5                   D5
but never for fame that's what she said
                    G5
dear Henry taste my whip
         A5                D5
never to see any words you print
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              G
Whereever she walks
         A       D              Bm    G
she will be captivating all the men
                  A
don't look in her eyes
          D    A   Bm   A                G
you might fall and find the love of your life
      A             D                Bm    G
heavenly but she'll catch you in her web

the love of your life, yeah-eah

A                                             D
    Oh Lola I'm sure that the love would have been
                    G                         Em
the key to all your pain, the key to all your pain
                        A                          D
no words will later come did she spider bite your tongue
                      G                          A
we will surely not forget, we will surely not forget
 
                   G    A
the lola spider daaaaaaaance
  D     Bm       G
ooooooooohhhh
                  A
don't look in her eyes
          D    A   Bm   A                G
you might fall and find the love of your life
      A             D                Bm    G
heavenly but she'll catch you in her web
                 A          D
the love of your life, yeah-eah

Actually, none of those Bm chords are really there. Those lines in the chorus just play as G - A - D - G. Other than that, fine!

I think its a cracking song and a good tab!! just take the 5's out and I think it works just as well :)

I do agree with you with taking out the Bm in the chorus. Listen, though, to the part of the chorus that goes "you might fall and find the love of your life." The Bm in that part of the song may have to stay. Listen to it again...what do you think?
