 Tuned down 1/2-step


 Comments: Man, what a song. I love the riffs, the solo is so cool, and the


 bass just rocks. Doesn't get much better than this. Of course, tabbing it


 was a bitch, so many parts it's ridiculous really. During the solo I've


 taken the liberty of doing both guitars at the same time, the staffs


 connected. This is to more easily see how they fit together. The rhythm


 work that goes on underneath the solo is listed after it in the lyrics.


 Each of the solo guitars is also doubled an octave above but I haven't


 written that down since this tab would get a mile long. Just transpose


 it an octave yourself if you feel the need.


 Key:


 / = slide up


 \ = slide down


 b = bend (whole step)


 b^ = bend (1/2 step)


 b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)


 pb = pre-bend


 r = release-bend


 t = tap with righthand finger


 h = hammer-on


 p = pull-off


 ~ = Vibrato


 * = Natural Harmonic




 ** = Artificial Harmonic


 x = Dead notes (no pitch)


 P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)


 (\) = Dive w\bar


 (/) = Release w\bar


 Tp = Tap w\plectrum

 DETROIT ROCK CITY
 Paul Stanley, Bob Ezrin
 "... congressional reports. President Ford says that he's disappointed with
 Congress's performance. In Detroit, a Pontiac, Michigan youth was reported
 dead at the scene of a head-on collision on Grand Avenue this morning. The
 youth was reportedly driving on the wrong side of the boulevard when he
 struck a delivery truck and was catapulted through the windshield of his
 car. The driver of the truck is reported to be uninjured. The identities
 of both men are being withheld by local police.
 County legislatives today are expected to rally to the aid of striking
 longshoremen in hopes of ending the 9 month deadlock ..."
 "..roll all night and party every day
 I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day"
 [Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Rhy. Fig 2]
 [Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Rhy. Fig 4]
 [Rhy. Fig 5 w/ Rhy. Fig 6] (2x)
 I feel uptight on a Saturday night
 Nine o' clock, the radio's the only light
 I hear my song and it pulls me through
 Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
 I got to
 [Rhy. Fig 13a]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna move their feet
 Get down
 Everybody's gonna leave their seat
 [Rhy. Fig 7 w/ Rhy. Fig 8]
 You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City
 [Rhy. Fig 13 w/ Rhy. Fig 13b]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna move their feet
 Get down
 Everybody's gonna leave their seat
 [Ryy. Fig 5 w/ Rhy. Fig 6] (2x)
 Getting late
 I just can't wait
 Ten o'clock and I know I gotta hit the road
 First I drink, then I smoke
 Start up the car, and I try to make the midnight show
 [Rhy. Fig 13a]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna move their feet
 Get down
 Everybody's gonna leave their seat
 [Rhy. Fig 8]

 [Rhy. Fig 5 w/ Rhy. Fig 6] (2x)
 Movin' fast, doin' 95
 Hit top speed but I'm still movin' much too slow
 I feel so good, I'm so alive
 I hear my song playin' on the radio
 It goes
 [Rhy. Fig 14]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna move their feet
 Get down
 Everybody's gonna leave their seat
 [Solo]
 [Rhy. Fig 13a]
 [Rhy. Fig 8]
 [Rhy. Fig 13a]
 [Rhy. Fig 5 w/ Rhy. Fig 6]
 Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
 There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
 Oh my God, no time to turn
 I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die
 Why
 [Rhy. Fig 14 w/ Riff 1]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna move their feet
 [Rhy. Fig 14 w/ Riff 2]
 Get up
 Everybody's gonna leave their seat
