Hairspray Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

:

(play this on the gutiar all nice and skanky, except the first C chord

played shouldn't be muted, same with the E. the three C chords inbetween

should be muted all skanky sounding.)

C C C C E E E E C C C C E E E E

Verse

:

(yes, i know this too should be with keyboards, the grouping of the three

C chords to the E should actually be a big glissando played on the

keyboards, but those are the basic chords, the first C should be allowed

to ring, the E's afterward should be very skankily muted, the three other

chord blocks that follow those should be played virtually the same.)

Verse 1

i met a girl i knew the other day

Verse 2

shopping for fun may chase the blues away

imeida marcos bought more shoes today

Verse 3

bored housewives re-arrange the pottery

hoping one day, they'll win the lottery

<solo interlude="" olo="">

Verse 4

i met a man that who swore that jesus saves

i asked him for a loan 'til judgement day

<repeat chorus="" 3="" times="">

Chorus

:

(this is also done on keyboards, i believe, but to me, the same general

sound can be achieved by playing a muted F on the guitars.)

F

<repeat all="" through="" chorus="">

oh oh oh you must need a hairspray

oh oh oh your so set in your ways

oh oh oh you must need a hairspray

[solo interlude/solo]:

(this leads into the keyboard solo, played exactly the same as intro, the

F chord is played same as the chorus, and the lyrics are sung during the

chord progression which is identical to the intro.)
