Subject: TAB: queen of new orleans by Jon Bon Jovi
JON BON JOVI-Queen of New Orleans
Tabbed by Cameron McNeill: rmcn@eisa.net.au
I haven't seen this song tabbed yet, so I decided to do it.
I don't know if it's popular in the U.S, but they play it on the radio
all the time here in Australia.
I play most of the chords as power chords, but it sounds fine if you
play open chords as well...it's up to you.
Standard tuning
*=step on your wah-wah if you've got one
Intro/Main riff/Verse:

-9-9-------7-7------2-2-5---5---5---
-7-7-------5-5------0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-
Pre Chorus:
:you can do a bit of a slide here if you want.

-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-
Chorus:
D A B G
Oh, oh, shala-lala I was dancing with the queen of New Orleans
D A B G
Oh, oh, shala-lala I was dancing in the streets of New Orleans
D A B G
Oh, oh, shala-lala nothing's what it seems in New Orleans
D A C
Oh, oh, it was almost like a dream
Solo: I think it has a backwards effect like R.E.M's "what's the frequency,
Kenneth?",
and so it's pretty hard to work out.
Here's what you play over the solo anyway:

-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-----------------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-----------------------------
Last chorus: The last chorus of this song is interesting...
there's a key change...something you don't see that often.
All it means though is that you move all the chords up 2 frets.
E B C# A
Oh, oh, shala-lala I was dancing with the queen of New Orleans
E B C# A
Oh, oh, shala-lala I was dancing in the streets of New Orleans
E B C# A
Oh, oh, shala-lala nothing's what it seems in New Orleans
FADE OUT
Have fun with this. Mail me (you know the drill): rmcn@eisa.net.au
