Firstly: Dragon is a New Zealand band — though I see that’s already
Been pointed out.
April Sun — this is off the top of my head…..
———
Over intro and verses:
Strum Asus4 and A for a bar each ie ||: Asus4 | A :||
Then after the bit «snakes eyes….» the chords are
D, C#m, Bm, then one guitar plays A, GMaj7 while another plays an A, sliding
Up to an F# on the high E string
Over the chorus strum ||:D | GMaj7 :||
Ie GMaj7 D GMaj7 D …..
» Take me to the April sun in Cuba. Whoooooaaaa…..
-with the A->F# slide over the GMaj7 at the appropriate time.
The chorus ends with a ‘powerful’ D strummed twice
Then verse and chorus again
Over the quiet bit strum ||: Bm | A :|| — in fact there isn’t actually
A guitar doing this on the song, but a Bm and A seem to be implied by
The bass, and vocals.
Then it’s back to D, C#m, B and chorus etc
Then final verse
Chords:
Asus4 0 A 0 D 2 or 5 C#m 4 Bm 2 GMaj7 2
3 2 3 7 5 3 0
2 2 2 7 6 4 0
2 2 0 7 6 4 0

|- (depending on whether it’s C#m or GMaj7 to follw)
I can’t help with Are You Old Enough (yet… ), but
If any body is interested in Rain (also by Dragon) mail me…
