_ _ _ _ [F#] _ [A#] I'm just going to practice for a second.
_ _ _ _ [C#m] _ Not quite right.
No.
_ _ That's better. _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Take it back a bit. _ _ _ _ _
[A] Back more.
_ _ _ _ _ A little bit washed out in reverb.
_ _ [F#] Tell me, [F#m] _ _
Angel, _ _ _ _ what's your [B]
situation?
_ [F#] Angel.
[E] _ _ [C#] _ _
_ [A] _ _ You want the guitar? _
[F#] Take the guitar back a little bit.
_ I feel like I'm actually doing my job in here.
What is this?
In 1989, I was in the very first Hard and Heavy.
And one year later, 1990, here I am again.
And we're at a place called Granny's.
We're in Reno, Nevada.
Looks a bit not like Reno, I guess, because there are no slot machines.
But this actually is a giant slot machine.
This is where we gamble our future.
Don, why don't you just start it for me from the beginning, if you would. _

_ _ _ How do you feel right now?
_ _ _ How do you feel to be alone?
_ _ How do you feel right now?
_ Angel, [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [F#] what's your situation?
_ _ [E] Angel.
We've been in the studio here for just about four weeks.
We plan on being here for six weeks.
We'll be finishing in about a week and a half.
Then taking this product to England to mix it.
For those of you who don't know what mixing is,
we put all the pieces together when we mix it.
We make it sound even better than it started out with.
[A] Where would you be right [C] now?
_ [A] _ _ Waiting to chase your next tomorrow.
_ Where would you be right now?
Tell [E] me.
We have all new players.
We have a great young guitar player.
We have a drummer that we've used on this album
that has been a friend of mine for a long, long time, Simon Wright.
He's the drummer with ACDC.
[Bm] Simon has really brought us back down to earth.
We're playing a lot more basic rock and roll.
[F#m] _ Other faces, new bass player, Teddy Cook on bass
and Yen Johansson on keyboards.
_ [C#] _
_ _ [A] _ Rowan Robertson is our guitar player.
Rowan joined us when he was 17 years old.
He's now an old, old codger of 18.
It shows, I think.
He's just a great player.
He's the best [F#] I've ever worked with.
_ _ _ _ Without implication. _ _
Angel.
[F] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ You. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ [F#] In changing all the people around,
we found that the writing even got stronger.
It became more pleasant to do it
because there were new ideas, ideas coming from places that _ we've used.
There were too many cobwebs before.
Once you get stuck into doing it one way,
you continue to do it for years and years and years.
That's why the beauty of having these new people to do it with.
We've written 12 songs for this LP.

_ [E] _ _ _ [N] _ I got to be in the band by originally sending a tape from England,
which my friend persuaded me to send.
I didn't really want to send it
because I figured I was only 17, well, 16 when I made the tape.
About six months later or so,
Wendy just phoned me up one evening at 8 o'clock
and asked me how I'd feel playing in front of 20,000 people.
It sounds to me like you're living the American dream.
More just any dream.
I mean, fairy tale, really, what happened is unbelievable.
If you give some time _ and devotion to something
and it's what you really, really want,
it's however bad you want something,
then I'm sure you can get [A] it if you really want it.
[Am] But the hard part and the grind of it is that year after year after year,
you have to do the same thing.
You have to [G#] write, you have to go in and record, and then tour.
No time for a personal life.
No time for anything but the single-mindedness
of writing, recording and touring.
We have been talking about going straight to Britain and Europe
to do two or three or four weeks perhaps
of introductory playing there
and then coming back to America
and doing our usual three to four months in America
and then going back to Europe and Britain again
[D] and doing a full frontal assault.
I'd just like to add to that that if it was at all possible,
I will help _ along and be involved in this
because the project has come along so far.
You won't be paid for this by now.
Well, then fuck off.
