Living and dying — Scorpions

LIVING AND DYING (1975) KEY: Em MUSIC: RUDOLF SCHENKER CHORDS (PLAYED BY RUDOLF SCHENKER) :

-Intro- Em (B)Bb (G)B (C)Em

-Verse 1- (open E) background guitar harmony:

-Verse 2- background guitar harmony:

-CHORUS- G C D Em CC DD Em

-Intro2- same as previous intro

-Verse 3,4- same as verse 2

-CHORUS- G C D Em CC DD Em D Em CC DD Em

* in the brackets you strike only one note and not a chord; you can use the 2 finger chord instead (e.g. for B sound | | | 3 | the note that must sound B will be 1)

* for the intro I would suggest to use this C5 chord between frets 3-5:

1st string | 1 | | | 2nd string | 1 | | 4 | 3rd string | 1 | | 3 | 4th string | 1 | | | 5th string | 1 | | | 6th string | | | |

* for verses there's a background guitar harmony - I think it's Rudolf's)...It's like a phaser picking using the Em chord on 7th fret. You also could play these chords acoustically as well with no use of distortion. So...HAVE FUN !

PS: During the chorus, in the line A Em D Em the chord D might be wrong; it might be a F# instead...anybody who thinks is F# (same as for the bass) please let me know.
