TAB: Heartbreaker (DooDooDooDooDoo)-Rolling Stones
 
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Heartbreaker (Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo) - Rolling Stones (Jagger/Richards)
                from Goat*s Head Soup, 1972 (73?)
 
Its not difficult to play, a wah pedal helps for intro and choruses, 
but isnt essential.  If theres a trick to making this sound like the 
Stones, it*s the strum patterns, and kind of a funk style for the 
verses.  I made some notes below about the chords and tried to show (in 
tab) how to play the funky strokes for the verses.
 
 
Intro:
 
Chords - E  G  C  E  (play twice)
 
verse 1:
 
Em7
Police in New York City
 
Am (variation)                  Em
Chased a boy right through the park.
 
Em7
In a case of mistaken identity
 
Am (variation)                  Em
They put a bullet through his heart.
 
 
chorus:
 
E                       G
Heartbreaker with your .44
 
C                         E
I wanna tear your world apart (see chorus riff, below)
 
(repeat)
 
 
verse 2:
 
Ten year old girl on the street corner
Stick a needle in her arm.
She died in the dirt of the alleyway.
Her mother said she had no chance, no chance.
 
 
chorus:
Heartbreaker, heartbreaker
She stuck a pin(?) right in her heart.
Heartbreaker, painmaker
Stuck a soul (?) right in your heart.
 
Oh yeah (Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo) 
Oh yeah (Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo) 
I wanna tear this world apart...
(repeat with variations on this phrase)
 
Chord definitions in order EADGBE:
 
Em7 = x79787 (barre chord, Am7 shape at 7th fret)
 
Am (variation) = 575555
 
Em, E, G, and C are played as standard open chords.
 
 
The strokes I use in verses, as best I can write *em:
KEY:  d=downstroke    u=upstroke
      h=hammer on     p=pull off
     (in the Em7, the notes you hammer are on the B and D strings)
 
Em7
   d  u d  d h   u  d  u d
E -7--7-7--7-7--10-10--7-7--- (keep index finger barre at 7th
B -8--8-8--7-8---7--7--8-8---  fret throughout this figure;
G -7--7-7--7-7---7--7--7-7---  play this twice for each
D -9--9-9--7-9---7--7--9-9---  line of verse shown as Em7)
A -7--7-7--7-7---------7-7---
E ---------------------------
