Rock It (prime jive)

Words and music by Roger Taylor

Somewhat transcribed by Egils Kaljo

This song is almost all power chords - for the rhythm - listen to the song

This tab is hardly complete - I haven't gotten the solo yet, and, when playing through this, you find any mistakes, please let me know so I can revise it... I'm also not completely sure of the lyrical order...

Anyway... these are chords you will need to know.

E (full) -0-	B (full) -2-	F# (full) -1-   C# (full) -4-
	 -0-		 -4-		  -1-		  -6-
	 -1-    	 -4-		  -2-		  -6-
	 -2-		 -4-		  -3-		  -6-
	 -2-		 -2-		  -3-		  -4-
 	 -0-		 -2-		  -1-		  -4-
To make the power chord - just don't play the first three strings.

In the beginning part, it is all arpeggiated chords (they are all the "full" chords)
B			E
When I hear, that rock and roll

		F#
It gets down to my soul,

		  B			F#
When it's real rock and roll, oh rock and roll

(Repeat)

What do you do, to get to feel alive,
