Definitely Maybe (1994)
Digsy's Dinner
! I was trying to figure out this song, one of my favorites, and I couldn't
! quite make what Fred Lidskog had put up already, so
! i put this together for all you folks out there like me who really aren't
! that good, but really try.
! This is a kick ass song, and here's my simplified version of the solo, the
! chords to the rest of the song go like this:
! order of parts:
! Intro
! Verse/Chorus
! Bridge
! Verse/Chorus
! Solo
! Bridge
! Verse/Chorus
! (Repeat last line twice)
! Ending
> A C#m D E
Verse/Chorus: What a life it would be, If you could come to mine for tea,
> Dsus2 E7 D7 A Asus4 A
I'll pick you up at half past three we'll have lasaaaagne.
> A C#m D E
I'll Treat you like a queen, feed you strawberries and cream,
> Dsus2 E7 D7 A Asus4 A
Then your friends will all go green from my lasaaaagne.
! Bridge
> F# A Asus4 A Asus4 A
These could be the best days of our lives,
> Bm C#m
But I don't think we've been living very wise,
> C#m
She said, "Oh, no no no."
! And here's the solo:

Text: What a life it would be
If you would come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three
And we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a Queen
I'll give you strawberries and cream
And then your friends will all go green
For my lasagne
These could be the best days of our lives
But I don't think we've been living very wise
Oh no! no!
What a life it would be
If you would come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three
And we'll have lasagne
These could be the best days of our lives
But I don't think we've been living very wise
Oh no! no!
What a life it would be
If you would come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three
And we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a Queen
I'll give you strawberries and cream
And then your friends will all go green
For my lasagne
