T. Rex
Laser Love

an amazing song by the grandaddy of Glam Rock, Marc Bolan! I cant believe I’m the 1st to
it, and I’m not sure its correct, but its near enough to have fun with.
I will add the lyrics underneath if I can. the — things are for spacing only and have
musical relevance eg. rests, timing etc.

Cadillac

It’s hard to write down the timing of the song but listen to it and you’ll get it

This is the main part (and Intro), so when I write ‘D’, it means go back to playing this:

D Dsus4
e|–2-2-2-2-2–2-2-2-3-2-|
B|–3-3-3-3-3–3-3-3-3-3-|
G|–2-2-2-2-2–2-2-2-2-2-|
D|–0-0-0-0-0–0-0-0-0-0-|
A|———————–|
E|———————–|

D
Baby I wanna walk you home
Em D
Oh baby I wanna walk you home
Em
There’s a shadow in the basement
Am D
And I’m scared to sleep alone
D
Baby doesn’t everybody weep
Em
Oh baby doesn’t everybody weep
Em
I’d slide up there beside you
Am D
But my nightmare’s oh too steep
D Em
Yeah

D
Baby I wanna buy you a Cadillac
Em
Oh Baby I wanna buy you a Cadillac
Em
I bought it with my song
Am D
But you say that you’re gonna give it back
D Em
Yeah

D
Baby I love you baby
Em
I love you baby
D
I love you baby
D
I love you baby
D
I love you baby

Intro (played through the bulk of the song):
e|————————————————|
B|————————————————|
G|————————————————|
D|———————-5————-5———–|
A|-5h-7–5h-7–5h-7-5-7—7–5h-7-5-7—7-5——-|
E|——————————————7-5-5-|

Play that repeatedly (with little differences here and there – not too hard to spot)
(roughly) the 2 minute mark. Then play:

e|———————–|
B|———————–|
G|———————–|
D|—5———–5——-|
A|-7—7-5—7-7—7-5—|
E|———7———–7-|

Play THAT repeatedly.
At 2:38 play this solo:

The rest of the solo is best improvised because it’s difficult to hear it on the
If you can work it out then submit it to UG. I sure would like to have a look at it 🙂

Broken Hearted Blues

This is one of my all time favorite songs, period. It’s only a four
chord progression and a tiny lil’ riff, but it’s so simple yet beautiful.

D maj C maj 7 A min E min lil’ riff (in key of D)
E–2——–0———0——–0—————————————|
B–1——–0———1——–0—————-7–8-7–10-8-7-7——-|
G–2——–0———2——–0—————-7–7-7–7–7-7-7——-|
D–0——–2———2——–2—————-0–0-0–0–0-0-0——-|
A———–3———0——–2—————————————|
E——————————0—————————————|

D major C maj 7
This is a song that I wrote when I was young

A minor E minor D maj (play the lil’ riff here)
and I call it the broken hearted blues

D major C maj 7
The air on that night was tempered like a knife

A minor E minor D maj (play the lil’ riff here)
and the people wore the face masks of a clown

…..the same four chord progression with the riff at the end, that’s the
whole song, simple and sweet, just the way I like em’….the Axe Miester!

Slim lined sheik faced Angel of the night
Riding like a cowboy In the graveyard of the night
New York witch in the dungeon Of the day
I’m trying to write my novel But all you do is play

A E
Boomerang, ooh baby, boomerang
B A E
well you never slight a person but you always bang the whole gang
E
Oh yeah…

E
Mince pie dog-eye Eagle on the wind
I’m searching through this garbage Looking for a friend
Your uncle with an alligator Chained to his leg
Dangles you your freedom Then he offers you his bed

A E
Baby Boomerang, ooh baby, boomerang
B A E
well you never slight a person but you always bang the whole gang
E
Oh yeah…

It seems to me to dream Is something too wild
In Max’s Kansas City You a belladonna child
Riding on the highways On the gateways to the south
You’re talking with your boots And you’re walking with your mouth

A E
Baby Boomerang, ooh baby, boomerang
B A E
well you never slight a person but you always bang the whole gang
E
Oh yeah…
