Which Way To America

(início)
Great funky kind of song from the late '80s from the album 'Vivid' standard tuning rhythm is going to be the hardest thing to get to grips with on this song especially just after a break, there's a tricky rhythm that I haven't quite managed to work out yet so it'll be quite a vague outline of it. anyway, enjoy...
repeat both parts of the verse
release of the B note is not played and the F# is held for the next 2 bars of the next rhythm part played Then back to the intro & verse riffs and then the chorus again
I have absolutely no idea about the solo, but I know the rhythm guitar plays the same chords as the ending of the 2nd chorus. then.... "where's my picket fence? my long, tall glass of lemonade? where's my vcr, my stereo my tv show?" x2 with no guitar just drums
then play the Chorus, but the first riff x4
and then the second ending of the chorus again with the lead guitar soloing over the top.
and that's all.
great song though, lyrics below. any questions? *

Lyrics (V. Reid):
I look at the T.V.
Your America's doing well
I look out the window
My America's catching hell
I just want to know, which way do I go
to get to your America?
I just want to know, which way do I go
to get to your America?
I change the channel
Your America's doing fine
I read the headlines
My America's doing time
I just want to know, which way do I go
to get to your America?
I just want to know, which way do I go
to get to your America?
Go west young, go west young man (I think these 2 parts are
sung simultaneously)
Don't want to crossover
But how do I keep from going under?
Where's my picket fence?
My long, tall glass of lemonade?
Where's my VCR, my stereo, my tv show?
I look at the TV
I don't see your America
I look out the window
I don't see your America
I, want to know, how to get, to your America
I, want to know, how to get, to your AmericaTablaturas 10— toque pra ver as tabs
