As I felt to sing those memories of BB these days, I noticed that there are no real tabs around. So let's make BB proud. The thrill is not gone and we need to keep that goddamn blues alive! #GodIsRock, Chris Recommendation: Don't play as usual in Blues the B7 and G7 as a standard chord. Play them in 7th and 3rd bar as Eric does. Key: B7 (Blues - mixolydian) BB and Eric are playing B- Blues scale most of the time, while BB keeps in his BB-Box. Intro: A7|A7|B7|B7| Vers 1:
B7I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid. B7I blew it all at the penny arcE7ade. B7A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll. No pretty chick is gonna make me E7crawl. B7
Chorus 1:
G7Get on a TWA to the promised land. F7 E7 Every woman, child and manF#7 G7 Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond rA7ing. A7Don't you know you're riding with the kiB7ng? E7 B7
Vers 2:
B7He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier, B7He's gonna check us all on out of hE7ere. B7Up to that mansion on a hill Where you can get your prescriptionE7 filled. B7
Chorus 2:
G7Get on a TWA to the promised land.F7 E7 Everybody clap your handsF#7. G7 And don't you just love the way that he siA7ngs? A7Don't you know we're riding with the kinB7g? (Riding with the kiA7ng.) A7Don't you know we're riding with the kinB7g?
Bridge:
D7A tuxedo and shiny 3B735. D7You can see it in his face, the blues is alB7ive. G7Tonight everybody's getting their angel wA7ings. A7And don't you know we're riding with the kB7ing?
End (spoken by BB King chords going on.../solo guitar played by Eric Clapton): I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold. I had a guitar hanging just about waist high And I'm gonna play this thing until the day I die.
E7Don't you know we're riding with the kiB7ng? E7 E7Don't you know we're riding with the kiB7ng? E7 E7Riding, you're riding with the king.B7 E7 E7 B7 (originally fading out) You're riding, you're riding with the king.
instead of fading out, you can of course end on B7 oder B7#9.
