GLOOMY by Creedence Clearwater Revival The intro goes something like... |-------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------| |---3-----------3---3---------3---5-3-/7-5-3---3--------| |-5-----5-3---5---5---5-3---5----------------5---5-3----| |----------------------------------------------------5--| I think that Fogerty bends the 2 on the D string every once in a while just to give it some pizzazz. Then... "Some people laugh in the dark..." |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---3-----------3---3---------3---5-3---/7-5-3---3--------| |-5-----5-3---5---5---5-3---5------------------5---5-3----| |------------------------------------------------------5--| "Some people count your money..." |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---3-----------3---3---------3---5-3---/7-5-3---3--------| |-5-----5-3---5---5---5-3---5------------------5---5-3----| |------------------------------------------------------5--| Then comes the bridge, which is something along the lines of... |---------------------------------| |---------------------------------| |---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-| |---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7-| |-5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---| |---------------------------------| and etc. A second guitar plays these notes throughout the bridge... |--6----6----6----6----6-5----6-5--| |--6----6----6----6----6-6----6-6--| |--7----7----7----7----7-7----7-7--| |----------------------------------| |----------------------------------| |----------------------------------| And then a brief but incredibly cool solo... "Brothers'll make you look sidways..." |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---3-----------3---3---------3---5-3---/7-5-3---3--------| |-5-----5-3---5---5---5-3---5------------------5---5-3----| |------------------------------------------------------5--| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |---3-----------3---3---------3---5-3---/7-5-3-----------| |-5-----5-3---5---5---5-3---5------------------5--3---5--| |--------------------------------------------------------| Short break... Rhythym guitar plays an A#7 then an G7, I think. Or a transition of it. And then after a while it goes down to an F, then up to an G. Another bridge riff... |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------| |-----8------6--------------------8------6----------------| |-------------------8------6--------------------8------6--| |-6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----| |------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------| |-----8------6--------------------8------6-------------------| |-------------------8------6--------------------8------6-7-8-| |-6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6-------| Strum on an F7 transition for a while, then... |-----------------------------| |-----------------------------| |-----------------------------| |-----8------6----------------| |-------------------8------6--| |-6-6----6-6----6-6----6-6----| Rattle on an A#7 and then you are done.
