Stray Cats - My one desire

Band Stray Cats Album: Self Titled Tuning: Standard Back with another one. I think it's official that The Stray Cats is my favorite band of all time. I have other rockabilly/psycho tabs lined up but I just keep going back to the Cats and keep having that urge to learn every damn song they put out even if it means putting a hold on other songs I've been wanting to transcribe for years now. We got another flawless cover of Ricky Nelsons original. Composed with 2 excellent solos that have some of my favorite solo endings that Brian has done. Sorry, if there is a lot of detail. I wanted to get the little nuances of the songs since my ear is improving a little more each time. But of course, you don't have to play it the way Brian does. You can just play the basic progression that I will list for you. Strums are not exact. Lets go!!! Key of B. Main chord progression. Listen for changes: B/F#m/B/G#m/E/F#m INTRO/MAIN RIFF/VERSE 1: B e|-----------------------| B|-----------------------| G|-----------------------|<----do this with a light palm mute D|-4-4----------4-4------| A|-2-2-0----0-1/2-2------| E|-------22--------------| ".....under the stars above."
