Woodstock Generation - Douglas McCarron
Copyright 1983
This is an example of a rock song using Tablature as composed by
me. It uses Power Chord or the 5 chord as we have described. The
leads use the Pentatonic Rock Scale. I didn’t write the leads out - feel
free to make up your own.
The Basic chords are B5 (7th fret of the deep E string) and E5 (7th fret
on the A string).
The Chorus (Woodstock Generation you got nothin’ on me). Is B5 to
D5 (5th fret on the A string) then B5 and A5 on the 5th fret. Just
follow and repeat the patterns below, and listen to the mp3 to hear
the changes.
B5 E5
I don’t care what you say, or what you think you mean
Woodstock Generation never did a useful thing
You tell me that you changed the world, ask what's wrong with us
took away our cultural past left nothin’ but your lust
B5 D5
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
B5 A5
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
Drugs, Sex, Peace and War, change the global hue
all of this was started by people before you
You tell us you’re a new type, with a heart so true
tell us that you changed the world, and we’ve got nothing new
A New World, human soul, never before seen
‘half a million people, living in a peaceful dream
born into a field of mud, filled up by mistake
took the local farmers to really ease your fate
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
Tell us that you changed the world, now you feel betrayed
hated being your parents kids, yet that’s what you became
your hero’s are the middle class who made money on your scene
they all became rich, and you did just the same
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
stayed at home and changed the world by watching your TV
B5 E5
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
B5 A5
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
Woodstock Generation you got nothing on me
