The song is in the key of A flat, but all the Ds are played as natural instead of flattened. I have put the chords under the tab charts instead of over the lyrics. The chord changes appear to be few and far between; that is just because of the fast 4/4 tempo. By the way, could someone please, please, please post the tab to "Don't Stand So Close to Me" by the Police? Exceed your disk quo, Proceed to disco. :) "Stayin' Alive" Bee Gees Intro: Well you can tell ------------------------------|---------------------------------------| ------------------------------|--------------------------------13-----| I -----------13-----------------|------------------------13--15--13-----| I o ---13--15------13----------13-|------------13-----15-----------13-----| I o ---15------15--15-15-13-15----|---13---15------13---------------------| I ---------------------13-------|---13-------13--13---------------------| by the way I use my walk, I'm a wom|an's man; no time to talk get__ low and I get high, and if I |cant get either i real-ly try.Got the --------------------------------------|-------------------------------------| --------------------------------------|-------------------------------------| 15-13--15------13--13-15-----------13-|13-----------------------------------| -------13--15--13--13-13----15--15-13-|-----15--------13-15---15-15---------| -------15------15--15-15-----------13-|------------------15---15-15---------| --------------------------------------|------------------16---16-16---------| (Fm7) (Eb) (Fm) mus- ic loud and women warm, I've been |kicked around since I-- was born. wings of heav-en on my shoes, I'm a |danc- in man and I just cant lose ----------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| 13----13-13-----------------------------|-----------------------------------| 13----13-13-------13-13-15--------------|13-----13-13-----------------------| 13----13-13---15--13-13-13----15---15---|13-----13-13--13----15----15--15---| ------------------15-15-15--------------|13-----13-13--------15----15--15---| ----------------------------------------|--------------------16----16--16---| (Fm7) (Eb) (Fm) And now it's | all right, it's o k.
