"Ready for Love"
by Mick Ralphs
the songs that I know. Let me know if you have any questions or
anything to add. I have a few other BC songs as well, so if you?re
interested, just email me.
Notation
=let note ring!
=staccato
/=slide
Opening Riff - A, A
[A] [A]
[
A] [A]
As far as I can tell, the verse just follows a simple arpeggio
chord progression (A,C,D,C,B,A,G,
F ). I don't know the actual
pattern, but you can try just about anything. Here's a simple
example. Let the bass notes ring throughout.
[A]Wanderin down..[C]rocky road
[D]Wonderin where my [C]life is [B]leading
[A]Rolling on [G]to the bitter [F]end
(Actually, that
B chord may be a figment of my imagination,
but I like it in there!)
Pre-Chorus
[D]Ooohhhhhh Oooh
(I want you to stay)
My notation here is kinda strange. You should really smack
that
D chord the first time and let it ring, then cut it off
the second time (staccato??) If you listen to the record
it'll be pretty self explanitory)
Play this 3 times, then, for the last time, play.....
[C]todayyyyy [D]ayyyyyyyy - you get the idea
Then on to the chorus, which is just G,A,C,
D
[G]Rea[A]dy for love [G][A] Oh baby I'm
[C]Rea[D]dy for love [C][D]
At the end of the chorus is a decending riff, like the verse.
Try something like this:
[C] [B] [A] [G] [F] [G]
That's pretty much the song. I haven't compared it too closely
to the album, so I'm sure there are mistakes. But it sounds
good to me so it should at least provide a good start.
There's also plenty of room to improvise, especially during the
verses. Have fun and I hope someone makes use of this!
Please let me know if you have anything better
