"Rock Steady"
by Paul Rodgers
>From the album Bad Co

up what I have.  It's a really simple song, actually.

Intro 

E------------------------------------------------

G--5--------5--------5---------------5---7p5-----
D--5--------5--------5---------------5---7p5-----
A----0-0------0-0------0-0-----3-5-----0---------
E------------------------------------------------

The verse is along the same lines.  Experiment a little!

As far as I know the chorus is just C,D - which I play as barre chords.  
I won't bother trying to tab out the picking pattern.
(actually, I think there¹s more than this, but this should be ok for 
faking it!)

Turn on ... [C]light and ...[D]me a wh...
And [C]ease ...[D]mind
Turn on .... [C]light and ....[D]me a wh...
And Rock ...

At the end play the 8th fret on the B string and bend it up 1/2 step.

That's most of the song.  Pretty simple but fun, especially if 
you're a BC fan.
