                           CENTERFOLD
                      by the J. Geils Band
          Transcribed by Dan Amrich (DanAmrich@aol.com)

     An 80's classic, and it's real easy.  All you need are three
chords and that infectious riff and you've got a guaranteed crowd pleaser.
The riff:
E------10------------------------------------------------------
B --/12-----12-10---------------------------10--------10--------
G ----------------12-12----12-9-12-12--9-12----12-12------------
D --------------------------------------------------------------
A --------------------------------------------------------------
E --------------------------------------------------------------


E ------10------------------------------------------------------
B ---12-----12-10---------------------------10------------------
G ----------------12-12----12-9-12-12--9-12----12-12------------
D --------------------------------------------------------------
A --------------------------------------------------------------
E --------------------------------------------------------------

During the verses, part of the riff is played an octave lower:


E --------------------------------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------------------------------
G -------7----------------OR------7-----------------------------
D ----/9---9--7--5--5----------/9---9--7------------------------
A ----------------------------------------10--10----------------
E --------------------------------------------------------------

There are other places to play it on the neck too; do what's most
comfortable.

The chords are a simple G, F, C through most of the song:

    G       (MUTE)   F          C          F         C
E ------------------------------------------------------------
B --12--12--X-X-X-X--10-10-----------------10-----------------
G --12--12--X-X-X-X--10-10------9---9------10--------9--------
D --12--12--X-X-X-X--10-10------10--10-----10--------10-------
A --10--10--X-X-X-X--8--8----0--10--10-----8---------10-------
E ------------------------------8---8----------------8--------
 My blood runs cold        MY   memory has just been sold

If that proves too daunting (or you have a second guitarist) then
play it as open chords.  This particular voicing is what I
believe Mr. Geils (yes, he exists and was the guitarist) to be
playing on the recording.

The pre-chorus:

     Em                                  Am          G   D
E ---0-----------------------------------0-----------3---2-------
B ---0-----------------------------------1-----------0---3-------
G ---0-----------------------------------2-----------0---2-------
D ---2-----------------------------------2-----------0---0-------
A ---2-----------------------------------0-----------2-----------
E ---0-----------------------------------0-----------3-----------

   A part of me has just been ripped the pages of my mind are
                                                         stripped


And that's pretty much all you need to know.  No solo, and the
rest is easy if you try it with the song, even that little low
riff after the false ending.  Towards the fade out, Peter Wolf
sings a harmony to the main riff on "Na-na", which you can play
on guitar if you choose:

E /12-10-10-12-10-10--10-10-8-8----8-10-8-8-10--and-repeat------
B ------------------------------10------------------------------
G --------------------------------------------------------------
D --------------------------------------------------------------
A --------------------------------------------------------------
E --------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to life. Spelling counts.

Used to play this in a band I was in, but we rearranged it a bit - the lead
guitar played the cheesy keyboard parts at the start etc.
Here's a rough idea :

G 	       F              C                 F   C
Does she walk, does she talk, does she come complete

   G                    F           C               F   C
My home-brew, home-room angel, just pulled me to my feet

G                 F              C              F    C
She was pure like snowflakes, no one could ever stain

    G            F           C              F   C
The memory of my angel could never cause me pain

    Em                             Am        C   D
The years go by I'm looking thru a girly magazine

    Em                           Am          C   D
And there's my ---- angel on the pages in between

(chorus)

   G              F        C          F         C
My blood runs cold,     my memory has just been sold

   G            F          C             F         C
My angel is tha centrefold (angel is the centrefold)

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold

Da, da, da etc.... (I'll post this riff next time)

Hit the chords hard & sharp (listen to the record for the rythym.)
If time allows I'll recall the riff at the start and post an improved
version tomorrow.

Cheers,
Bruisa.
