Intro by Peter Nosworthy
Verses by Andreas Walsh
Outro by Urban De Souza
This is just a collection of three parts posted on the net. I don't know if they fit together at all! Anyway, it's a classic Purple tune... What's here, is the guitar solo from the end of the intro, the verses (with chords) and the very end of the outro. Additions more than welcome!
I used to have the tab for this but I've lost it. The following is the way I play it which may not match the record but I think most of it is pretty close. This is just the main guitar solo at the beginning. Someone else has posted the chords. Note that this version is a tone higher than the record.
>> Bend up two semi-tones. 3==5 Slide from 3 to 5. ==9 Slide up to 9 from nowhere in particular. 3_5 Hammer on 3 to 5. 5_3 Pull off 5 to 3. tr. Trill (Same as 6_7_6_7_6_7 played rapidly) 6~7 vib. Vibrato. "Bar" lines divide the solo into riffs rather than bars.

Well this is just the singing part:
Gm7 C/G You're lazy Gm7 Just stay in bed C You're lazy Gm7 Just stay in bed Bb You don't want no money F Gm7 D7#9 (ie Purple Haze E down 2 frets) You don't want no breadRepeat chords for:
If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw
If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw
You don't want to live you don't want to cry no more
(Harmonica solo)
Well my trying ain't done no good
I said my trying ain't done no good
You don't make no effort no not like you should
Lazy you just stay in bed
Lazy you just stay in bed
You don't want no money
You don't want no bread
(Guitar solo)
(blues outro w/harmonica)
Gm7 | C/G | Gm7 | Gm7C | C | Gm7 | Gm7 Bb | F | Gm7 | D7#9(the funky E from Purple Haze down 2 frets)
I think these could do with some explanation:
EADGBE Gm7: 353333 (I can't remember the simpler one!) C/G: 335553 or 332010 C: 332010 or -32010 (whatever C you prefer!!) Bb: 115551 or --5551 F: 133211 or --3211 D7#9: -5456- (or if you're beginning : D7: -00212
Thought I'd contribute some...Here's what I think is the outro on the song LAZY by DeepPurple. The actual song has been tabbed and archived at Nevada or Uwp! [Sorry, wrong... -ed.] Can somebody put the actual chords on this piece (in A major)? The song itself is a minor blues before the outro, ie (Am / D / Am / C / G / Am /E7#9).
