This is a song I've really been wanting to learn...however, I have been totally unsuccessful finding tablature for it. I have learned the intro/chorus riff by ear, and as far as I know, the song is in C# tuning, no?

But...eh...does anyone know the chords for the verses? This is one thing I just cannot place my hands on (no pun intended). The solo I can figure out, if it's in the key of C#...

But other than that, anyone check out Motorhead's newer album, "Motorizer"? I put it above a lot of the albums I usually listen to, imo... :roll:

The newer one, "Motorizer." 2007 or 2008 album I think. First track on there.

The main verse and the majority of the song seem at a cursory listen to be a standard twelve bar in C# (F# fourth, G# fifth) progression. It even sounds like theres a bit of the 5th to 6th chuck berry riff going on for the verse. Which does stay in C# predominantly, there may be the occasional stab at F# of G# to accent.

First time ive heard the album. Rock out is a crackin track.

Hey! Awesome! That's quite a bit of helpful information! :D

And +1, Rock Out is a great track. Short song, but the last few verses in the chorus are quite comical. :lol:
