Hoochie Coochie Man by Muddy Waters

Am - D- E (blues shuffle) 

The gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
I got a boy child's comin'
He's gonna be a son of a gun
He gonna make pretty women's
Jump and shout
Then the world wanna know
What this all about
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Well you know I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him

I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo too
I got the Johnny Concheroo
I'm gonna mess with you
I'm gonna make you girls
Lead me by my hand
Then the world will know
The hoochie coochie man
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Oh you know I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him

On the seventh hours
On the seventh day
On the seventh month
The seven doctors say
He was born for good luck
And that you'll see
I got seven hundred dollars
Don't you mess with me
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Well you know I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him

This repeats four times, then back to the intro riff.  If this
doesn't sound right let me know.  Also, there is a second guitar
that sounds like its running a counter melody, so if anyone can
figure that out, please post.

Soldier of Fortune by Deep Purple

--------------------------------
Deep Purple - Soldier of Fortune
(Blackmore/Coverdale)
From "Stormbringer" (1974)
--------------------------------
Key: Gm

Intro: Gm / F / Eb

        Gm
I have often told you stories

I have often told you stories
F
about the way
   Gm
I lived the life of a drifter
Dm
  waiting for the day
          Gm
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
      F
Then maybe you would say
Gm
Come lay with me and love me
Dm                      Bass D-C-Bb
  And I would surely stay


Bb       C                Gm   Bass G-F-Eb
  But I feel I'm growing older
            F                Bb
  And the songs that I have sung
   D            Gm
  Echo in the distance
             F
  Like the sound
        Bb              Eb  Bass Eb-D
  Of a windmill going round
  Cm                Dm
  Guess I'll always be
                Gm
  A soldier of fortune.

Solo:  Gm / C / Gm / C /
       Gm / Bb / C / Gm

Many times I've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here.


  Now I feel I'm going older
  And the songs that I have sung
  Echo in the distance
  Like the sound
  Of a windmill going round
  Guess I'll always be
  A soldier of fortune

       Eb             F
  Yes, I can hear the sound
         Bb           Eb Bass Eb-D
  of a windmill going round
     Cm               Dm
  I guess I'll always be
                Gm
  a soldier of fortune.
     Eb         F
  I guess I'll always be
                G  (major chord)
  a soldier of foRtune.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------


Bm
If you're leaving, close the door.
A                        Bm
I'm not expecting people anymore.
Bm
Hear me greaving, lying on the floor.
A7                          Bm
Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure.


Bm              D
I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man.
G               Em
And my world is pale.
Bm
When a blind man cries,
D             G                     Bm
Lord you know there ain't no sadder tale.


Bm
Had a friend once, in a room.
A
Had a good time, but it ended much to soon.
Bm
In a cold month, in that room.
A7                     Bm
Found a reason for the things we had to do.


Bm              D
I'm a blind, I'm a blind man.
G               Em
Now my world is cold.
Bm
When a blind man cries,
D                G                 Bm
Lord you know he feels it from his soul

Head Over Heels by Tears for Fears

A9   A         Cmaj7    C        
 I wanted to be with you alone
A9   A             Cmaj7    C
and talk about the weather
     A9              A                 Cmaj7          C   
but traditions i can trace against the child in your face
A9        A             Cmaj7  C
won't escape my attention
A9       A                    Cmaj7       C
you keep your distance with a system of touch
A9    A              Cmaj7  C
and gentle persuasion
     A9     A                  Cmaj7      C
i'm lost in admiration could i need you this much?
               A9      A               Cmaj7  C
oh you're just wasting my time, you're just, just wasting time.

CHORUS:

G                         Em
something happens and i'm head over heels
        G                Em  
I never find out til i'm head over heels
G                         Em 
something happens and i'm head over heels
          Dm7
Ah, don't take my heart don't break my heart
                       A9  A  Cmaj7 C
don't don't throw it away.

I made a fire and watching it burn
thought of your future
with onre foot in the past now just how long will it last
no, no, no have you no ambition
my mother and my brothers used breathing clean air
and dreaming i'm a doctor
it's hard to be a man when there's agun in your hand
oh I feel so
         D
this is my four leaf clover
  C
I'm on the line open mind
          D  
this is my four leaf clover
C              D        C
la, la, la, la, la, la, la ....
      D            C
in my minds's eye one little boy one little man
         D
funny how time flies
