Permanent Vacation Aerosmith
"Permanent Vacation" by Aerosmith
(from the 1987 Geffen album PERMANENT VACATION)
riff D and A:
E --2-2-2-2---------|-------------------|--2-2-2-2----------- B --3-3-3-3---------|----2-2-0-2-2-0-2--|--3-3-3-3----------- G --2-2-2-2---------|----2-2-0-2-2-0-2--|--2-2-2-2----------- D --0-0-0-0---------|----2-2-0-2-2-0-2--|--0-0-0-0----------- A ------------------|----0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|-------------------- E -----------0-2-3--|--4----------------|-----------0-2-3---- E --------------------------------------------- B ----2-2-0-2---------------------------------- G ----2-2-0-2---------------------------------- D ----2-2-0-2---------------------------------- A ----0-0-0-0---------------------------------- E --4------------------------------------------
It's repeated for every verse with the following change at the
end of the phrase (or you can always power chord it for that
extra "oomph"):
[C] [D] [A]
E --0------2--------------|-------------------- B --1------3--------------|-------2-2-0-2------ G --0------2--------------|-------2-2-0-2------ D --2------0--------------|-------2-2-0-2------ A --3---------------------|-------0-0-0-0------ E ---------------0--2--3--|--4-----------------
Yeah, yeah I got to get a-way
The bridge is another simple pattern of open chords:
[C] [G] [F] [C]
E ----0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--3--3--3--3-----1-1-1---0------ B ----1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--0--0--0--0-----1-1-1---1------ G ----0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----2-2-2---0------ D ----2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--0--0--0--0-----3-3-3---2------ A ----3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--2--2--2--2-----3-3-3---3------ E ----------------------------3--3--3--3-----1-1-1----------
I really need it really really need it San Tro-pez
This repeats four times, and the fourth time ends on an B:
[C] [G] [F] [B]
E ----0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--3--3--3--3-----1-1-1---------- B ----1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--0--0--0--0-----1-1-1---4------ G ----0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-----2-2-2---4------ D ----2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--0--0--0--0-----3-3-3---4------ A ----3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--2--2--2--2-----3-3-3---2------ E ----------------------------3--3--3--3-----1-1-1----------
really need it man I got to get a -way
The solos continue over this rhythmic pattern (which may well be
a combination of the bass and rhythm guitar parts, but this is
the way I do it, and it sounds fine when played along with the
CD):
[B] [A] [B] [D] [Db] [C] [B] [A] [B]
E ----------------------------------------------- B ---4---2---4----7-7-7-7-7-7-6--5--4--2--4------ G ---4---2---4----7-7-7-7-7-7-6--5--4--2--4------ D ---4---2---4----7-7-7-7-7-7-6--5--4--2--4------ A ---2---0---2----5-5-5-5-5-5-4--3--2--0--2------ E -----------------------------------------------
During the second solo, with the harmonica, drop the Db and C
chords and just riff on the A, B, and D.
