Bon Jovi: Livin' On A Prayer Tabbed by Flashheart This is a difficult song to master, and the bassist needs to be relatively good to be able to play the tab as quickly as it is played in the song. Just concentrate. The verse is the hard bit, the rest is just a progression of notes, various steps up. VERSE repeat as many times as necessary, roughly 16 times G-------------------- D-------------------- A----9--------------- E--0---9-11-0-0-9-11- BRIDGE INTO CHORUS (broken down into sections) G----------------------------------------------------------------- D----------------------------------------------------------------- A--333-555555555-77-55-333-5555-4-5-7-5-77-55-333-555555555-77-55- E----------------------------------------------------------------- G--------------------- D--------------------- A--3-----3-----3-5555- E----0-3---0-3-------- CHORUS (repeat as necessary) G------------------------------------------------------ D-----------------------------5-2---------------------- A--------3-2-3-4-555555-6-7-9-----3-2-3-4-55555555----- E--0-2-3----------------------------------------------- VERSE repeat as many times as necessary G-------------------- D-------------------- A----9--------------- E--0---9-11-0-0-9-11- After the second verse the chorus will be slightly different. At the end of the normal verse, as above, play straight into the following bridge, which then leads into the final chorus but one key up, which means the fingering is the same for the chorus except that all the notes are played TWO FRETS UP THAN NORMAL. AFTER SECOND VERSE - BRIDGE G------------------------------------------------------------------ D-------------------------------------5---------------------------- A--333-5555-7777777-55-333-5555-4-5-7---77-55-333-555555555-77-55-- E------------------------------------------------------------------ G--------------------- D--------------------- A--3-----3-----3-5555- E----0-3---0-3-------- CHORUS (repeat as necessary BUT with following change at end) G------------------------------------------- D-----------------------------5-2-------2--- A--------3-2-3-4-555555-6-7-9-----3-2------- E--0-2-3------------------------------3----- THEN PLAY THE BRIDGE ONE MORE TIME G------------------------------------------------------------------ D-------------------------------------5---------------------------- A--333-5555-7777777-55-333-5555-4-5-7---77-55-333-555555555-77-55-- E------------------------------------------------------------------ G--------------------- D--------------------- A--3-----3-----3-5555- E----0-3---0-3-------- THEN PLAY THE CHORUS WITH THE NOTAGE CHANGE- ONE KEY (2 frets) UP G----------------------------------------------------- D----------------------------8-5---------------------- A--------5-4-5-6-777777-9-11-----5-4-5-6-55555555----- E--2-4-5---------------------------------------------- Play along to the CD. I do not expect this to be exactly correct, but it will do for now until I work out the corrections. In the meantime, have a go and see what you think. Please correct this tab so I can see where I'm going wrong. Thanks.
