>Subject: [TAB] : Rock It (Prime Jive) - Queen

Rock It (Prime Jive) (R. Taylor) - tab

as recorded by Queen on the album "The Game"

somewhat transcribed by Egils Kaljo (kaljoe@rpi.edu)

This song is almost all power chords - for the rythm - listen to the song

This tab is hardly complete - I haven't gotten the solo yet, and, when

playing through this, you find any mistakes, please let me know so I can revise

it... I'm also not completely sure of the lyrical order...

Anyway... these are chords you will need to know.

E (full) -0- B (full) -2- F# (full) -1- C# (full) -4--|

To make the power chord - just don't play the first three strings.

In the beginning part, it is all arpeggiated chords (they are all the "full"

chords)

When I hear, that rock and roll

It gets down to my soul,

When it's real rock and roll, oh rock and roll

(Repeat)

(Power chord section)

Oh Oh... Oh Oh...

You really think they like to rock in space?

Well I don't know.

What do you know? What do you hear?

On the radio. Coming through the air.

I said Mama, I ain't crazy, I'm all right... all right...

Hey c'mon baby said it's all right, to rock and roll on a Saturday night,

I said shoot and get your suit and come along with me,

Said come baby down, come and rock with me, I said yeah...

What do you do, to get to feel alive,

You go downtown, and get some of that prime jive,

I said Mama, I ain't crazy, I'm all right... all right...

Hey c'mon baby said it's all right, to rock and roll on a Saturday night,

I said shoot and get your suit and come along with me,

Said come baby down, come and rock with me, I said yeah...

We're gonna rock it...

(solo)

Hey c'mon baby said it's all right, to rock and roll on a Saturday night,

I said shoot and get your suit and come along with me,

Said come baby down, come and rock with me, I said yeah...

We're gonna rock it... Tonight

(We want some prime jive) Oh oh oh

(We want some prime jive) Oh oh oh oh oh rock it tonight...

and it is F# -> B ad infinitum (or at least, until the end)
