Subject: TAB: queen of new orleans by Jon Bon Jovi
JON BON JOVI-Queen of New Orleans
Tabbed by Cameron McNeill: rmcn@eisa.net.au
I haven't seen this song tabbed yet, so I decided to do it.
I don't know if it's popular in the U.S, but they play it on the radio
all the time here in Australia.
I play most of the chords as power chords, but it sounds fine if you
play open chords as well...it's up to you.
Standard tuning
*=step on your wah-wah if you've got one
Intro/Main riff/Verse:

Pre Chorus:
:you can do a bit of a slide here if you want.

Chorus:
DOh, Aoh, shala-lala I was Bdancing with the Gqueen of New Orleans
DOh, Aoh, shala-lala I was Bdancing in the Gstreets of New Orleans
DOh, Aoh, shala-lala Bnothing's what it Gseems in New Orleans
DOh, Aoh, it was Calmost like a dream
Solo: I think it has a backwards effect like R.E.M's "what's the frequency,
Kenneth'",
and so it's pretty hard to work out.
Here's what you play over the solo anyway:

Last chorus: The last chorus of this song is interesting...
there's a key change...something you don't see that often.
All it means though is that you move all the chords up 2 frets.
EOh, Boh, shala-lala I was C#dancing with the Aqueen of New Orleans
EOh, Boh, shala-lala I was C#dancing in the Astreets of New Orleans
EOh, Boh, shala-lala C#nothing's what it Aseems in New Orleans
FADE OUT
