GO FOR A SODA
Kim Mitchell
Transcribed by Willie Kozushko (kozushko@infoserve.net)
The opening lick of this spiffy guitar classic is played within the F chord
Guitar is standard tuning, but the bass guitar is tuned down to Eb.
I`ve included a finger guide beneath each tab bar.
1=index, 2=bird, 3=ring, 4=pinky
H=hammer on
P=pull off
/=slide up to this position
GUITAR INTRO (play once, then play behind vocal)

Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda, nobody drowns and nobody dies
First chorus ends with an F power chord in the high position that slides
down to an Eb

1 3&4
The verse is pounded out on bass guitar, F and Eb notes (remember, bass
guitar is tuned down ONE, so the bass notes alternate between first string,
second fret and open bottom string.)
So we`re in one of our blue moods,
you wanna have it your way and I want it mine.
All this debating going round in our blue mood
makes me thirsty for love
After the vocal line, the lead guitar lick is as follows:

Chorus lyric:
MIGHT AS WELLLLLLLLLLL
Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda, nobody drowns and nobody dies
Next verse:
Life seems to be a bomb in inside your head
well the bomb is mine is love.
All this debating going round in our blue mood
makes me thirsty for love
Chorus:
MIGHT AS WELLLLLLLLLLL
Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda, nobody drowns and nobody dies
Might as well go for a soda, it`s better than slander
it`s better than lies
Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda
Lead solo.
Any one care to transcribe?
Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda, nobody drowns and nobody dies
Might as well go for a soda, it`s better than slander
it`s better than lies
Might as well go for a soda, nobody hurts and nobody cries
Might as well go for a soda
That`s essentially it. Any questions?
