When listening to the intro riff, it's easy to think that there is only one G5 chord, but there are two played very closely together. Effects NOTE: To get the tone of this song, try turning the bottom end (low/bass control) of your amp/distortion pedal down, as the distortion is very 'trebly' and thin sounding. Also, add just a touch of chorus pedal. Typical early '80s. ------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| ------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| ------3--------5--3---------3-------------|-----------------------------------| -5-5--3-----5--5--3----5-5--3----3-3--5-5-|-----------------------------------| -5-5--1-----5--3--1----5-5--1----3-3--5-5-|-----------------------------------| -3-3--------3----------3-3-------1-1--3-3-|-----------------------------------| Intro riff -/18----17-----15----13----------/10-----8-----6----5-------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Intro solo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -------3-------------5--5---------------------3-----------------5--5----------| -5-5---3------3--3---5--5--------------5--5---3----------3--3---5--5----------| -5-5---1------3--3---3--3--------------5--5---1----------3--3---3--3----------| -3-3----------1--1---------------------3--3--------------1--1-----------------| City nights, summer breeze makes me feel alright.
