Walk on By Bryan Adams
A great song by the great Canadian Bryan Adams, from his new album 11.
First tune your guitar down a half step to match the recording
Most of the Song is just the same pattern repeated over and over again:
[D] [G] [C] [G]
e:-----------------:-----------------: b:-----3-------3---:-----3------3----: g:---2-------0---0-:---0------0---0--: d:-0---------------:-----------------: a:-----------------:-3---------------: e:--------3--------:-------3---------:
But then there's a bridge
[Am] [Am] [C]
e:-------------------:----------------------------: b:-------1--------1--:-------1----------1-------1-: g:---2---------2-----:----2---------0---------0---: d:-----2---------2---:------2---------2-----2-----: a:-0--------0--------:--0------2--3-------3-------: e:-------------------:----------------------------:
And after the bridge the main riff changes a bit:
[D] [G] [C] [G]
e:-----------------:-----------------: b:-----3-----------:-----3------3----: g:---2-------------:---0------0---0--: d:-0---------------:-----------------: a:-----------------:-3---------------: e:--------3--------:-------3---------:
