The keyboard parts are not in here, and keyboards
are pretty prominent in Aldo Nova's songs, but they're
pretty simple keyboard parts to figure out.
When listening to the intro riff, it's easy to think that there
is only one G5 chord, but there are two played very closely
together.
Effects NOTE: To get the tone of this song, try turning the bottom
end (low/bass control) of your amp/distortion pedal down, as the distortion is very
'trebly' and thin sounding. Also, add just a touch of chorus pedal. Typical early '80s.

Repeat Bridge and Chorus
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ALDO NOVA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
