'Ride Captain Ride' by Blues Image

standard tuning (EBGDAE)

'hey is that freedom rock? well turn it UP dude!'

(no solos included, just my adaptation of organ/guitar chords played in song)

verse chord progression

end of verse chords pre-solo riff

.....how it all goes together....

(play verse chord progression as shown above while singing; I've included chord names but look at tab for voicings)

seventy three men sailed up from the san francisco bay rolled off of their ship and heres what they had to say we're calling everyone to ride along to another shore we can laugh our lives away and be free once more no one heard them calling no one came at all cause they were too busy watching G6 Dsus2 D D5 Dsus4 D ('end of verse' those old raindrops fall chords) as a storm was blowin out on a peaceful sea seventy three men sailing on to history

ride captain ride upon your mystery ship be amazed at the friends you're having on your trip ride captain ride upon your mystery ship on your way to a world that others might have missed

(next, play pre-solo riff 1x, and then play D-Bb-D-Bb-A chords during 1st solo...)

(...now go back and sing/play 1st eight lines of verse (up to and including "and be free once more" line...))

(..finally, sing/play chorus again 2x, and then just play chorus chords as 2nd solo fades out)
