Sweet Emotion Aerosmith
<br/> <br/> A E R O S M I T H<br/> "Sweet Emotion"<br/> from _Toys in the Attic_<br/> <br/> (also on _Pandora's Box_, and<br/> heavily abridged on _Greatest Hits_)<br/> <br/> Transcribed by Kevin Bourrillion<br/> phlegm@cs1.bradley.edu<br/> <br/> <br/> A D A<br/> S w e e t E m o - t i o n<br/> <br/> <br/> Verse<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-3---------------|-----------------|<br/> |-2---2-----2-----|---------2-------|<br/> |-0---2-----2-----|---------2-------|<br/> |-----0-----0-----|-3p0-----0-------|<br/> |-----------------|-----3------(3)--|<br/> talk about things and nobody cares.. etc.<br/> <br/> <br/> Between verses<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-5p3p0-----------|-----------------|<br/> |-------0-2-2---0-|-3-3---0-4---5---|<br/> <br/> <br/> Outro (solo mainly in E dorian)<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |-----------------|-----------------|<br/> |---------7-----9-|---9-----2-2-----|<br/> |-2---2---7-----9-|---9-----2-2-----|<br/> |-2---2---5-----7-|---7-----0-0-----|<br/> |-0---0-------0---|-------0-----3-4-|<br/> <br/> <br/> Aerosmith "Sweet Emotion" <br/> -------------------------<br/> This file is a comglomeration of the various posts made by various people,<br/> along with my own corrections and the addition of timing. Below the tab<br/> there is time notation in sixteenth notes (1 e + a, etc). If you know what<br/> this means, then it may help you; if you don't understand the timing notation,<br/> just listen to the CD and follow the tab. The bass intro is from a recent<br/> interview with Aerosmith's Bassist in Guitar World magazine. The guitar part<br/> is a decent approximation. Everything else in this song is pretty<br/> straightforward; a little work should do it.<br/> For the break between the verse (Fig C), the []3 means play three times.<br/> The only version I have of this tune is the one from Greatist Hits, so I<br/> don't have any solos to transcribe; when I hear it on the radio or from<br/> someone's Pandora's Box, there is more than what's here. If anyone has this,<br/> please post. If I've made errors, please download this file, update it, and<br/> resubmit it to the archives.<br/> <br/> Guitar intro/chorus (Fig A) Bass intro/chorus<br/> e--------------------------------- <br/> b--------------------------------- <br/> g--------------------------------- g---------12--------14------------------<br/> d---------5-----7---7------------- d---------------------------12-11-14-14- <br/> a-0---0-0---0-0-------0-0-5p0-4h5- a-12--12------12-12---------------------<br/> e--------------------------------- e---------------------------------------<br/> 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a<br/> <br/> Verse (Fig B)<br/> e---------------------------------<br/> b-3-------------------------------<br/> g-2---2-----2-------------2-------<br/> d-0---2-----2-------------2-------<br/> a-----0-----0-----3p0-----0-------<br/> e---------------------3-----------<br/> 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a<br/> <br/> Between verses (Fig C)<br/> e[---------------------------------]3 ---------------------------------<br/> b[---------------------------------]3 ---------------------------------<br/> g[---------------------------------]3 ---------------------------------<br/> d[---------------------------------]3 ---------------------------------<br/> a[-5p3p0---------------------------]3 -5p3p0---------------------------<br/> e[-------0-2-2---0-3-3---0-4---5---]3 -------0-2-2---0-3-------4---5---<br/> 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a<br/> <br/> The is how is goes on the Greatest Hits CD<br/> (these words are what I think they are, if someone has the real lyrics,<br/> please update them):<br/> (Fig A 8 times)<br/> "Sweet Emotion<br/> Sweet Emotion"<br/> (Fig B 8 times)<br/> "Talk about things and nobody cares<br/> wearin' out things that nobody wears<br/> callin' my name but I gotta make clear<br/> I can't say baby where I'll be in a year"<br/> (Fig C - no vocals here)<br/> (Fig B 8 times)<br/> "Some (sweat hoggin')? mama with a face like a gent<br/> said my get up and go must've got up and went<br/> well I got good news she's a real good liar<br/> 'cause a backstage a boogie set ya pants on fire"<br/> (Fig C - no vocals here)<br/> (Fig A 8 times)<br/> "Sweet Emotion<br/> Sweet Emotion"<br/> (Fig B 8 times)<br/> "I pulled into town in a police car<br/> your daddy said I took you just a little too far<br/> you tell 'em them things but your girlfriend lied<br/> you can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died (yes it did)"<br/> (Fig C - no vocals here)<br/> (Fig B 8 times)<br/> "Stand in the front just a shakin' your ass<br/> I take you backstage you can drink from my glass<br/> I talk about something you can sure understand<br/> 'cause a month down the road I'll be eatin' from your hand"<br/> (Fig C - no vocals here)<br/> (Fig A repeatedly 'til fade)<br/> "Sweet Emotion"<br/> </div> </div> <div class="breadcrumbs">
