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

I saw OLGA had the lyrics for the song but no tab, so I figured I'd type
up what I have.  It's a really simple song, actually.

Intro

E------------------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------------------|
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!

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

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.

Turn on your [C]light and stay with [D]me a while
And [C]ease your worried [D]mind
Turn on your [C]light and stay with [D]me a while
And Rock Steady!

At the end of the chorus 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.
