Buddy Holly

OOO WEEE OOOOH


The chord progression is awesome. Lets try to figure out what key its in. The tab asks you to tune down by a half step but its completely playable in standard tuning

Verse:F#m-G#

3-5-6
3-5-6
1-3-4
is how I would normally walk it, but weezer did something cool here

3---6
3-1-6
1-3-4

sounds awesome, must add that to my knowledge of things to do when playing guitar.

Prechorus:
C#-Cm-Fm

chorus:
I-IV-V with G#-C#-D#

this leads me to believe its in the G# major(okay according to wiki its Ab minor, no such thing as a G# major scale, music theorists will laugh at you for this one, maybe) or F minor

the solo is also AWESOME.
