  Subject: (fwd) TAB:"Engine 999" by The Hooters

  

  Hello all Hooters fans out there, and especially to Johnny Disobidience(Thanks

  for adding me to the mailing list). Here is a transcription of "Engine 999",

  from the "One Way Home" album. As usual I forgot to bring the CD booklet, so

  I can't type in any lyrics, and as usual I don't claim to have perfect pitch

  or anything. This is how I play it. If you find any particularily embarrasing

  mistakes, mail me and let me know!:) (I won't mind if you mail me if you find

  it useful either.:))

  

  ENGINE 999 by The Hooters.

  This is actually quite a simple song. There is one riff for the verse, and 

  one for the chorus (with only minor variations). And then the rythm for the

  solo part, and that's it.

  

  Intro/verse riff.

  shuffle.

  There, play that a few times, and then go to the chorus.

  Play that two times the first chorus, a few more times in later choruses.

  Listen to the record.

  

  Solo...

  Err, I discover now that I've forgotten to write the solo rythm part down.

  It shouldn't be too hard to figure it out. The chords should be Am, G, and F

  in the first part, and then C, F, and G the second.(Not 100% though) I'll 

  try to remember to send in a completion later.(sorry) Hope you find it 

  useful anyway.

     Heals the sick and leads the blind.

     Tune it in and hear it say.

     It's counting down to judgement day."
