Cigarettes & Alcohol Oasis
[Trans. I Latbwell]
This is how I think it sounds, but it is just from listening to the record
and so could well be wrong. If anyone has any comments then please send
them to me.
[Intro/E Riff]
The Intro and other E chord places is a riff that repeats between E and
Esus4 (002220), I think the rythmn is something like ||S|||S|||S|||S (With
S being the Sus4 chord)
Intro-
E/ESus4 F# A
Verse 1-
[E]Is it my imagination, or have I [F#]finally found [A]something worth looking [E]for,
[E]I was looking for some action, but [F#]all I found was [A]Cigarettes and Alcoh[E]ol,
Chorus-
[A]You could wait for a [E]lifetime, [A]to spend your days in the [E]sunshine,
[A]You might as well be a [E]white lie, 'cause when it [D]comes on top, (???? Words)
[A]You gotta make it [E]happen, [A]you gotta make it [E]happen, (X2)
D A E A E ... to solo
Verse 2-
Is it worth the agrivation,
to find yourself a job when there's nothing worth working for,
It's a crazy situation, but all I need are Cigarettes and Alcohol,
Chorus-
Solo....
Ad lib and mess around bit-
[E] [A]You gotta make it
[E] [A]You gotta fake it
(X2)
Solo....end.
[A couple of riffs I picked out]

That's all I got. I think listening to T Rex might be a good source for the
other Riffs in the song, as they all seem to be stolen from some song or
other.
[Note on pronounciation]
The way words are sung makes a big difference to this song, any word that
ends in tion, should be said 'sheeeon'. Sunshine is pronounced
'sonsheeeeine'.
