Rock and roll.
[music] [music] [music] I want [singing] to be the one that you live for.
>> [music] >> you lie [singing] in the sun again.
[music] I want [singing] to feel your touch. The things that you do.
I've always meant so much to me.
[music] I want some love and peace. We [singing] need it right now. Yours [music] never cease to be.
[music] Oh. [singing] Oh. Oh. I love you, but [music] you know my heart is breaking over [singing] you. But I'll be on my body [singing] shaking. [music] Oh. Oh. Oh. My mind is black and blue. I love you, but I never [singing and music] know.
No, no, no, no, no.
[music] [music] [music] I'm going to [singing] take the time to prove that I can. [music] No matter as long as I'm with [singing] you, I've got to make you see I always [singing] be there. I want to be with [music] you.
[music] [music] Oh. [singing] Oh. Oh. I love you, but you know my heart is drinking over you. [music] But happy [singing] all.
My body shaking. Oh. [music] Oh.
[singing] Oh. My mind is black and blue.
I [music] love you, but I never know.
No. No. No. [music and singing] >> [music] [music] >> Oh. [music and singing] Oh. Oh. I love you, but you know [music and singing] my heart is beating over you. But got [singing] me on the run. My body's shaking. Oh. Oh. Oh. My mind is black.
I [music and singing] love you, but I never know.
No. No. No.
Heat.
[music] Heat.
>> [music] [music] >> Okay. Rock and roll. So that song is a E minor, [music] E minor 6, E minor 7, E minor 6.
So you repeat that [music and singing] kind of sequence of E minors. E minor 8 7 [music] [singing] E - 6 [music] E minor E minor 6 - 7 - 6.
>> [singing] >> E minor 6 E minor 7 E minor 6 and E minor [music] E minor 6 and E minor 7 E - 6 E minor E minor 6 - 7 E - [singing and music] 6 E minor E minor 6 E minor 7 E minor 6 So do that also the bit in between the verse and the chorus as >> [music] >> And the oyster [singing] o [music] and g I love you [singing] then a d7 [music] and e minor daddy on the [singing and music] day B7 and E minor D G and there [singing] we go today B7 [music] E minor E7 and E minor D G [music] [singing] and the D.
So despite it sound like it's different chords, I think it's the same one. So it's L G7 [music] [singing] on a D and G [music] G and [singing] D.
Then you better 6 minor [music and singing] 7 minor 6.
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
So I mean that's the bass and that's the chorus and then the end bit and the instrumental bit is [music] right. So I think that's a D. A D chord starts on the F sharp. So you're going to F sharp G D A F sharp G [music and singing] A over a D chord.
When you hit the A goes D major 7. Sorry [music] major 7 then D6 D7 D67 [music] D7 D67 then G.
[music] So you do that A G D A G F sharp and that F sharp here's an F sharp augmented then add a [music] F sharp augmented with an added D and that's a D. So again F A D with an F sharp bass [music] F F sharp [singing] G over a D chord D major 7 D 70 67 G [music] F sharp augmented F# [singing] a with an A Hey, [music] [music] [music] and there we go. There's all the chords for it. Um, so, um, yeah, rock and roll.
It's a really good track about Paul Magani's new LP, which is a quite a good one. I think it's good LP actually. Well done, Paul.
Rock and roll.
