It's Still Rock And Roll To Me
Billy Joel
>From "Glass Houses"
Trancribed by Thomas Burns (develaine@geocities.com)

Standard tuning: E A D G

This is how I play what happens to be my personal favorite of his
songs. I might be wrong. It could be played an octave up. But to me
that wouldn't sound right when I play with the CD. But to you it
might. To each their own...

Bass starts just before the line "Where have you been hidin' out lately
honey." You'll hear the rythym guitar chime in with a chord, and bass
comes in immediately afterward. I'm guessing this is measure 13 from
counting the mute guitar intro notes, so the tab is notated as such.

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -

One "-" is counted as a 16th note for timing.
I.e.: |1---4---5---1---| would be 4 quarter notes.

* - Hold this note... Just let the sound fade on it's own. I usually try to
extend it until the next song on my playlist, but it doesn't always work.
