RORY GALLAGHER: LAUNDROMAT
Here are some suggestions for Laundromat, one of my Gallagher-
favourites. The tab contains the main riff (during the song in
minor, towards the end in major), the chorus, the bridge and
the great solo.
I added the solo part to the former version. Ensure in most
cases that, if you come from the B-string down to the G-string
14th fret, you hit the G-string with your pinky. So you get
your fingers in the right position to finger first the 12th,
then the 11th fret on the G-string.

what do you think of that
I'm sleeping down at the laundromat
if you should pass you should drop my bag
but I don't have no clothes to clean
to put inside the machine
it was the craziest place I've ever been
oh, come around and meet my friends
they'll be there with me right through to the end
say I told you so
maybe bad times come and go
you don't know that right now but then you'll never know
what do you think of that
I'm on the street like an old straycat
if you should look for me you'd know exactly where to go
oh, come around and meet my friends
they'll be there with me, with me to the end
what do you think of that
I'm sleeping down at the laundromat
if you should pass by drop right in
but I have no clothes to clean
to put inside the machine
It was the craziest place I've ever been
Oh, come around and meet my friends
they'll be there with me right through to the end
