"Call On Me" by Chicago (Loughnane) Chicago VII 1974 For the intro, I strum the first six chords once and then make-up my own kind of rhythm. Also, sliding up the fretboard from Am and A#m a little sounds like the recording. It would help to play all of the chords using barre chords, and a wah-wah pedal is needed. Intro: Am Bm Dm A#m C#m Em Bm Dm Am Bm C#m Em C#m Em A#m A#m Bm C#m For the verses, I play a strumming pattern of: w w x w u x u u x w u w with w(down), u(up), and x(muted) Verse 1:
C#mThe feeling was clear, clear as a blue sky on a Bmsunny day Everything was C#myou, oo ooo D'Cause no one made me feel,C#m the way I felt with you, oh Bmoohh Call on me 'cause C#m I C#mlove yDou You C#mknowC#m I dD6o, you C#mloveC#m me Dtoo. A#m A#m Bm C#m
For verse 2, the strumming pattern stays the same, but for the first D chord, I play: w u w u w x w x w x (twice) Verse 2:
C#mThen came a change, when I said I would soon be Bmleavin' you Nothing else to C#mdo, oooh DBut please remember C#mI'll never lose the thought of Bmyou Call on me 'cause C#m I C#mloveD you You C#mknow C#m I D6do, you C#mloveC#m me tDoo, oo ooo A#m A#mHoo ooh oh oh hoh
I ad-lib on rhythm for the instrumental. It's difficult to hear the guitar over the brass and percussion anyways. Instrumental 1: A#m Bm C#m Em Bm Dm Am Cm Bm Gmaj7 Bm Cm Dm Same strum pattern as verse 1 Verse 3:
DmYou've got to find someone else to somehow Cmtake my place Share his life with Dmyou, oo ooo EbBut if you need a friend, Dmyou can always count on Cmme Count on me 'cause DmI DmloveEb you, You Dmknow DmI dEb6o, you lDmove Dmme tEboo, oo ooo Bm
Instrumental 2: Bm Dm Am Bm Cm Bm Outro:
BmYou can count on me, ooh oh (baby) GYou can count on Dme
(repeat until done)
