ROCK 'N' ROLL STAR      by Oasis (well .. Noel Gallagher)
===================     from "Definitely Maybe"

Its taken me ages to figure out that he goes to Ab at the
bridge type bit (pre-chorus). He throws in these unexpected
chords fairly often it seems (see the Supersonic transcription at
OLGA which is fine except it goes to D not E on the chorus as is
written).

Most (if not all) of the chords are barred, the B at the
7th and theres a lot of taking off of the barre (fore) finger so it
adds an E and an A. Other than that just turn up the overdrive.

intro: B (mess around) then B A->E B

B
I live my life in the city -  there's no easy way out
A               E                 B
The days moving just too fast for me,
B
Need some time in the sunshhyynnnnne - gotta slow it right down
A               E                 B
The days moving just too fast for me.

  Ab                    E
I live my life for the stars that shine
B
People say its just a waste of time
Ab                           E
When they said I should just feed my head
B
That to me was just a day in bed
     Ab              E
I'll take my car and drive real far
                 B
To where they're not concerned about the way we are

A
In my mind my dreams are real
F#
Are you concerned about the way I feel ?

A  E                        B
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
A  E                        B
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
A  E                        B
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star.


Then: repeat the whole of above until :


To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
A  E                        B
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star.

A
Are you down with who I am
E
Look at you'll now you're all in my hands - tonight.

solo: over verse chords (B A E)

To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star
To-night  I'm a rock'n'roll star.

Then at the end there is a bit of a free-for-all - it goes first to an
A (slide up from G) then I *think* it is E (fingered at 1st fret)
and an E shape slid up two frets (so a sort of F#) - I may be wrong
on this bit though - so any takers ?
