You've both got the names of the chords correct, but to reproduce Angus' sound
and feeling, you've got to get the fingering correct:

Verse
She was a fast machine
She kept my motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
She has the sightless eyes
Telling me no lies
And knocking me out with those American thighs

Takin' more than her share
Had me fighting for air
She told me to come but I was already there

Cos the walls start shakin'
The ground was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were making it and.......

CHORUS Verse:
You shook me all night long (repeat)

Verse
Working double time on the seduction line
She was one of a kind, she was mine all mine
Had to cool it down to take another round
Then I got back in the ring to take another swing

Cos the walls start shakin'... etc...

(I play the D chord part of the intro on the 5th frett, but it's more or
less the same notes. -Tim Morris )

Guitar lessons done right!

We have consistently recommended one guitar lesson DVD product line
for over 3 years. Amazing Guitar. Why are these DVDs so beneficial?

Because the DVDs are not flashy riff collections
but real tools for progress:

Guitar lesson - Amazing Guitar 2.0
You will learn the most efficient practice routine that works fast.

Learn Guitar - Ultimate Guitar will show
you how to organize the fretboard and find any chord or scale.

Blues Guitar DVD Ultimate Blues Primer
Will show you how to Jam with your friends!

We have received tons of thankyous
for these recommendations like this:


Hi Greg,

I've just finished the Amazing 7 day guitar course.
I have really enjoyed seeing my playing improve
in just 7 days. I love the exercises that incorporate
learning the scales as that has always been a
real challenge for me.

I have felt stuck in my playing for a while now but
after completing your course I am more
confident, and more flexible!

the style of teaching is very simple yet extremely
effective way of teaching,
and I'm enjoying all the extras I received.
