Aerosmith "Sweet Emotion"
-------------------------
This file is a comglomeration of the various posts made by various people,
along with my own corrections and the addition of timing. Below the tab
there is time notation in sixteenth notes (1 e + a, etc). If you know what
this means, then it may help you; if you don't understand the timing notation,
just listen to the CD and follow the tab. The bass intro is from a recent
interview with Aerosmith's Bassist in Guitar World magazine. The guitar part
is a decent approximation. Everything else in this song is pretty
straightforward; a little work should do it.
For the break between the verse (Fig C), the []3 means play three times.
The only version I have of this tune is the one from Greatist Hits, so I
don't have any solos to transcribe; when I hear it on the radio or from
someone's Pandora's Box, there is more than what's here. If anyone has this,
please post. If I've made errors, please download this file, update it, and
resubmit it to the archives.

The is how is goes on the Greatest Hits CD
(these words are what I think they are, if someone has the real lyrics,
please update them):
(Fig A 8 times)
"Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion"
(Fig B 8 times)
"Talk about things and nobody cares
wearin' out things that nobody wears
callin' my name but I gotta make clear
I can't say baby where I'll be in a year"
(Fig C - no vocals here)
(Fig B 8 times)
"Some (sweat hoggin')? mama with a face like a gent
said my get up and go must've got up and went
well I got good news she's a real good liar
'cause a backstage a boogie set ya pants on fire"
(Fig C - no vocals here)
(Fig A 8 times)
"Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion"
(Fig B 8 times)
"I pulled into town in a police car
your daddy said I took you just a little too far
you tell 'em them things but your girlfriend lied
you can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died (yes it did)"
(Fig C - no vocals here)
(Fig B 8 times)
"Stand in the front just a shakin' your ass
I take you backstage you can drink from my glass
I talk about something you can sure understand
'cause a month down the road I'll be eatin' from your hand"
(Fig C - no vocals here)
(Fig A repeatedly 'til fade)

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.
