Koos Kombuis - Johnny is nie dood nie
First of all, I'd like to say that this tab is all my own work, but most of the credit (if not all) must go to my good friend, Werner Brand, who showed me how tyo play to this absolutely great Afrikaans song. If you like it, it's cool, if you dont, that's also cool, and if you don't know you feel, decide quickly.
Email me at jaspervanzyl@mailbox.co.za. Enjoy it, guys.
Intro: G D Em C (x4)
Here's that little riff between the verses:
--3-3-3-5-3-5-7-7-7-8-7-8-10----3-0

Verse 1:
G D Em C
onderkant die wind by die spoor, by die spoor
G D Em C
hang jou reuk in die lug wat na trane ruik
G D Em C
onderkant die wind by die spoor, by die spoor
G D Em C
onder hierdie maan lê my vriend se lyk
Chorus:
G D
Johnny was 'n cowboy, Johnny was 'n rushkop
Em C
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny maak 'n groot geraas
G D
Johnny was 'n genius, Johnny was 'n fokkop
Em C
Johnny, Johnny stadig nou, Johnny, Johnny kap dit flou
G D Em C
Johnny is nie dood nie, Johnny is nie dood nie
D D Em
Johnny is nie dood nie, hy's net uitgepaas
Verse 2:
G D
met 'n storie op die voorblad,
Em C G D Em C
met 'n kiekie van 'n kar, net 'n byline
G D Em C
maar by nommer 22 is dit stil
G D Em C G D Em C
by nommer 22 was die laaste pil in die pipeline
G D Em C
in die pipeline
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 KOOS KOMBUIS 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.
