Chords for How to Play Spirit In the Sky - Doctor and the Medics (cover) - Easy 3 Chord Tune

[E] _ Hey guys party [C] Marty here easy guitar tunes
I've got another great [Gbm] request by one of my subscribers for a song.
It's called spirit in [Abm] the sky
I remembered by dr.
The medics back in the 80s [A] written by a guy many many years ago by the name of Norman Greenbaum
[G] But there's been renewed a few times and this is this is kind of the [F] way
I remember I kind of put an [Bb] easy spin on it.
I put a slap strum in it a [F] little bit
But basically I've modeled it after the kind of an acoustic version of the doctor in the medics
Hope you [E] guys enjoy this [Abm] the way I do.
It's very simple.
I played it a [Bb] G three chords first [G] one is G
_ _ _ There's [C] a C. _
_ _ [F] [D] There's a deep _ again [Ab]
the quarter [G] G
_ _ _ [C] C _
_ _ [D] _ _ Then I said before I made it my own a little bit I had a slap [Bb] strum
I play a lot of solo work so [G] slaps are kind of is it a drum beat? _ _ _ _
And that's pretty much the way I strung through the whole thing.
I'll slow it down for you
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] So practice those [D] chords practice that strum a little bit you can also click on the slap strum link
I have it's on this video there if you want a better [F] explanation as to what it is
I'm doing we get that drum beat.
It's a very simple technique, but very [D] effective
So hope you guys enjoy this one spirit in the [Ab] sky by doctor and the medics
[G]
