Song: Don't Look Back in Anger
Artist: Oasis
Album: (What's the Story) Morning Glory
Transcribed by: Jim Ferraiolo (jmferraiolo@hcacad.holycross.edu)

This is another one of my favorite tracks off this incredible album.  I'm
probably going to transcribe the entire thing, because I love it that
much.  I've adopted a somewhat new format of notation for this particular
transcription, because the changes are so easily outlined.  If you
enjoy this transcription or use it, let me know.  If you have any questions
or problems, feel free to make any necessary additions without changing
the original.

[Mini solo over once through the verse progression]

Note: I think this solo is mostly in A-minor pentatonic.

[Verse 3, prechorus, chorus, are all same progressions as earlier]

Take me to the place ...

Chorus again:

So Sally can wait, she ...

[Solo over prechorus chords]

Again, this solo is based mainly on pentatonic ideas.  The length is once
through the prechorus progression.  Double the length if you want to solo
a bit longer.  Work those bends and kick some more emotion into an already
emotional song!

[Drum fill]

Chorus again, but endings:

    F (upstroke)
But don't look ...
Fm
Dont look ...
            C
I heard ..

Once more through the verse progression, then end on:
             C
At least ...
