Why Am I Still Here?(Cover)

[Style: Status Quo 12-Bar-Boogie | Tempo: 124 BPM | Sound: Clean, jangly Telecaster guitars with a slight overdrive, driving 4/4 Shuffle-Beat] [Intro] (Das typische Quo-Riff startet: Chugging on the E-string. Dann setzen die Drums ein – Bumm-Tschak-Bumm-Tschak!) [Verse 1] The house is empty and the lights are low I’m watching shadows put on a show Your coffee’s cold in your favorite cup And I’m just waiting for the sun to come up You took a flight to the great unknown But you left me standing here all on my own! [Pre-Chorus] (Guitars building up – stop-and-go rhythm) I’m calling out into the dark Waitin’ for a flame, lookin’ for a spark! [Chorus] (Full Power – Headbanging-Groove!) Why am I still here? Why did you go? Why am I the last one to the show? You took the lead and you left the stage I’m just a sentence on an empty page! Lord, if you’re listening, let me know: Why am I still here, with nowhere to go? [Verse 2] We had a deal for the long, long run We were the moon and we were the sun Now I’m just walking down a one-way street With a hole in my heart and dust on my feet You got the wings and you’re flying high While I’m still stuck beneath this heavy sky! [Solo] (Classic Quo-Style: Simple, rhythmic Pentatonic-Solo with twin-guitar harmonies in the middle) [Bridge] (Rhythm guitar stays steady, bass guitar drops out for a moment) I’m not looking for an exit sign I’m just trying to hold the line But tell me, baby, what’s the plan? For a broken-hearted, lonely man? (Drums kick back in – Louder!) [Final Chorus] Why am I still here? Why did you go? Why am I the last one to the show? You took the lead and you left the stage I’m just a sentence on an empty page! (Sologitarre) Why am I still here? Why did you go? Why am I the last one to the show? You took the lead and you left the stage I’m just a sentence on an empty page! [Outro] Why am I still here? Yeah, tell me why! Just me and the night... (The guitars do the classic "Quo-Ending": Bum-bum-bum-BUM!)
