Chubby Checker Classics

Beach Party

, an American singer-songwriter best known for popularizing the dance The Twist with his 1960 song &quot;The Twist&quot;. In September 2008, &quot;The Twist&quot; topped Billboard's list of the most popular singles to have appeared in the Hot 100 since its debut in 1958.  He was born in Spring Gulley, SC, USA, and raised in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and attended South Philadelphia High School with Frankie Avalon and Fabian.

FYI the Song should be played on all down-beats
If you want to jazz it up a little bit then 
whenever you are playing an A chord you can fret the
e string 2 every third (out of four) beats.

Como intro:
Desnudar el sin razón
que modelo nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida.

Nadie apuesta detener
el motor que contamina
el aire que a diario respiras

Am
Y que respiraste ayer,
Como intro
y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé.
Por eso hoy

Am
Reflexionando en esto,
C5
la madrugada pasó,
B5 / Am / G5 / F5# / Em
y dejó otro día para ser.

Ser guardianes o vigías de toda la miel
que guarda en toda colmena el sucio poder.
Predador, ecologista, pobre o gran señor.
Drogadependiente, doctor o paciente,
entreverado en el montón.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser

Culpable o inocente, malviviente o juez.
O quien con sólo su firma decreta la ley.
Pronucleares informistas modelan la situación.
Más tecnología, por más energía.
Fuga radiactiva de progreso.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Derrame de combustible, exterminio forestal.
El motor contaminante no se detendrá.
Para ser hay otro día en el planeta inferior.
Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Vender, comprar.

Beautiful Girls

Donde hay numeros en vez de acordes es porque no se
como se llaman esos acordes y pongo abajo como se hacen




F9/A Cm
Ya no sé donde fue,
F9/A C
con su luz tu verdad,
F9/A Cm
avanzar y no avanzar,
1 G
que loco remolino,

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves . . .

la maldad que hay allí . . .

solo estás en tu cruz,

oh déjame explorarte,
F4 C
solo extiéndete una vez más . . .
F4 C
extiéndete una vez más . . .

la canción de la sed,

como el agua se nos fue . . .

líbrame . . .

Oh! líbrame . . .

Líbrame de la galaxia

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves

lo que ya sé nos pasó

respirar y oxidar,

y olvidarse y no fumar . . .

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

exiténdete una vez más . . .

extiendete una vez más

extiendete una vez más

Nota: C B y
Am 2
eres mi esperanza
Am 3
solo una grieta en mi existir . . .
4
no somos solo hombres
5 6 7
y como fondo un cielo.

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe,

tal vez

me sentirás tal vez

me sentirás

las aguas en tus ojos

vibran su dulce brillo

una piel y una flor

son tus pechos,

que no piensan menos mal,

oh por favor,

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

Alegría, alegría,
MI ARREGLO 1
exalta mi corazón
LA SOL
si el indio blanco convida
MI ARREGLO 2
sonar en el Willie Dixon.

Se dará cita la audiencia
metalera y sin revés,
para corear el canto
que te dedica Almafuerte.

RIFF 2

bastión de patria, Provincia de Santa Fe.

Ciudad de Rosario, Ciudad de Rosario.
Ciudad de Rosario, Ciudad de Rosario.

Zanjeando en tus orillas
de pibe la suerte hallé,
cuando un disco de Pappo
oí por primera vez.

Mis primos del barrio Acindar,
desde ese día supieron
que seguiría los pasos
de aquél inmenso rockero.

La más amada por cuna del pabellón,
bastión de patria, Provincia de Santa Fe.

Ciudad de Rosario, Ciudad de Rosario.
Ciudad de Rosario, Ciudad de Rosario.
