Oasis - Wonderwall Chords

Transcribed by:  Jim Ferraiolo (jmferraiolo@hcacad.holycross.edu)

Oasis are a great band, but I really wish that their recordings wouldn't
come out a twinge higher in pitch on their CDs.  This track doesn't suffer
this malady, but there are other tracks on the album that have this 
"problem".  It makes playing along with the CD impossible, which is really 
frustrating, since this is something I love to do.  Consequently, it is
also how I figure out most songs.  At any rate, I'm working on the rest
of the tracks for this album and there might be an entire album transcription
in the future.  

This song is easily my favorite off an *incredible* album that is miles
ahead of their first offering in terms of songwriting and maturity.  The 
song is pretty easy to figure out once you realize that it's capoed.  I hope
that you enjoy this transcription, and as always, if you have any questions,
comments, etc, drop me a line.  If you like and use this transcription,
drop me a line as well.  It's nice to know that people appreciate your
work and it provokes them to do more transcriptions in the future.

Verses:

Listen to the recording for the rhythm.  For each line of lyrics, play the 
following progression:

[F#m7, A, Esus4, B7sus4]

Verse 1:

Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do 
About you now

Verse 2:

Backbeat the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do
About you now

Prechorus:

[F#m7+5, Esus4, B7sus4]

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

[F#m7+5, Esus4]

There are many things that I 

*This part has quick changes, listen closely*

[A, Esus4, F#m7, Esus4, B7sus4]

Would like to say to you, but I don't know how

Chorus:

[F#m7+5, Esus4, F#m7]

'Cause maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Verse 3:

[Same progression as the earlier verse]

Today was gonna be the day, but they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do
About you now

[Same progression as prechorus]

And all the roads that lead you there are winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

[Same progression as chorus.  Have you caught on yet?  Good! :) ]

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
You're gonna be the one who saves me?

For the little solo at the end, just make something up in F#m pentatonic
and you'll be all set.  You can make it as sweet or as nasty as you like.
