That Was a Crazy Game of Poker  O.A.R.

THAT WAS A CRAZY GAME OF POKER (LIVE) - O.A.R
 
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: EADGBE (Standard)
I noticed a lack of tabs for this song... So I decided to give it a shot. Here's my version of
O.A.R.'s That Was A Crazy Game of Poker, live from Madison Square Garden.
*NOTE* I know that this is just the intro (from the beginning to where the song actually
starts) right now, but I plan to more/the rest of it later.
Let's start with Marc Roberge's part, the acoustic guitar:
 
 e|-----------------------------------|
 B|-----------------------------------| Repeat 8 times, then vocals
 G|---------------2-2-----------------| come in. Play again once
 D|-------0-2-3-------2-0-----0-2-3---| when band comes in again.
 A|---3-3-----------------3-3---------|
 E|-----------------------------------|

The chords played starting at "It was hard for me..."
[C5] [Bb5] [C5] [Eb5]  
 
 e|--------------------------------|
 B|--------------------------------|
 G|--------------------------------| Repeated throughout keyboard
 D|---10-8---10-8---10-8---10-13---| solo. Repeat again after up
 A|---10-8---10-8---10-8---10-13---| until first guitar solo.
 E|---8--6---8--6---8--6---8--11---|

Guitar Solo 1 (Rhythm Chords):
[Cmaj] [Gmaj] [Am] [Fmaj]  
 
 e|---8----3----0----1---|
 B|---8----3----1----1---|
 G|---9----4----2----2---|
 D|---10---5----2----3---|
 A|---10---5----0----3---|
 E|---8----3----x----1---|

Now for Richard On's part, the electric guitar:
At the beggining, two double-stops:
 
 e|---11\------------|
 B|---10\-------8b---|
 G|-------------8b---|
 D|------------------|
 A|------------------|
 E|------------------|

Then the band comes in, and you play Marc's part, but an octave higher:
 
 e|------------------------------------------|
 B|------------------10-8--------------------|
 G|---------7-9-10--------9-7-------7-9-10---|
 D|---10-10-------------------10-10----------|
 A|------------------------------------------|
 E|------------------------------------------|

Here are the licks during the first section of vocals:
 
 e|--11----(x8)--------------------13b15-13-11----11~~~------11----11---------------|
 B|-----10------8b--------------11-------------13---------10----10----10-8b---------|
 G|-------------8b-------------------------------------------------------8b---------|
 D|----------------10p8-10~~~-----------------------------------------------10------|
 A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 e|---11-11-x-x-x-x-11-11-x-x-x-x-11-11\-------11----(x7)-5b6rb5-3h5p3--------------|
 B|---10-10-x-x-x-x-10-10-x-x-x-x-10-10\----------10-------------------6-4b---------|
 G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------5~~~----|
 D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 e|-----------------------------------------8-------8-----------------x-11-11-x-------|
 B|---------------------------------------8---11b13---11-11/13~~~---8-x-10-10-x-(x2)--|
 G|---------3h4h5-------3h4h5~~~----10b12---------------------------8-x-------x-------|
 D|---3h4h5-------3h4h5---------------------------------------------------------------|
 A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Quietly play the same as Marc again starting at, "It was hard for me..."
[C5] [Bb5] [C5] [Eb5]  
 
 e|--------------------------------|
 B|--------------------------------|
 G|--------------------------------| Again, repeat until
 D|---10-8---10-8---10-8---10-13---| keyboard solo.
 A|---10-8---10-8---10-8---10-13---|
 E|---8--6---8--6---8--6---8--11---|

Now play this about 8 measures into the keyboard solo:
 
 e|--------------------------------------------------|
 B|------------------------------------------8b------|
 G|------------------------------------------8b------| Repeat this 4 times,
 D|-----8-10---8-10---8-10---8-10---8-10--10----10---| until solo ends.
 A|--------------------------------------------------|
 E|---8------8------8------8------8------------------|

Now... For Guitar Solo 1:
 
 e|---8-x-8-8---------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|---8-x-8-8-5------------------5-8p5------------------------------5-6-8-8~/11---|
 G|-------------7p5---5~----/5-7-------7-5---4-5----------------5-7---------------|
 D|-----------------7----7\----------------7-----5~---------5-7-------------------|
 A|---------------------------------------------------5-7-8-----------------------|
 E|-------------------------------------------------8-----------------------------|
 e|---8-------7-10-8h10h12-8-8-8/10~--------15------------------------13p12-------|
 B|-----11-11-------------------------15b17~~~~br15p13-15-13-13--13---------13----|
 G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 e|---12--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|------13p12-13p12----12----------------------------------------------5~~-------|
 G|------------------14----14p12-14p12----12-----------------5~~----5-7-----------|
 D|------------------------------------14----14-12\------5-7-----/7---------------|
 A|---------------------------------------------------/7--------------------------|
 E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 e|---------------------1~~~~~~~~----|
 B|---8p5----------------1~~~~~~~----| Great solo! That last
 G|-------7~------5-------2~~~~~~----| chord is an upstroked
 D|----------5-/7---7\-----3~~~~~----| F major.
 A|-------------------------3~~~~----|
 E|--------------------------1~~~----|

That's it for now! I'm going to be working on more of the song and adding it later. Looking
ahead to the next update, the verse chords are the same as the rhythm guitar under the first
solo.
Hope this helped, happy playing!!!
