Rockstar - Acoustic Nickelback Cover

Alrighty, something really simple and straightforward this time around in the form of Nickelback's song "Rockstar."

Yes the song is a bit cheesy and yes it's rather easy to play, but the key for me is that it's just FUN to play and a fun song to listen to.

I've not been able to play and sing this song yet so you'll be getting an instrumental version. Feel free to add your own lyrics ;)

Enjoy!

Hey Fus, what chords you using? I would love to learn this tune. I agree, cheesy--but thats the point.

[FussenKuh]

I think I was tuned down a 1/2 step (for no real reason) which put my capo at the 4th fret. As for the chords, I'm just using the shapes for E, A, D, G and C.

If I'm watching my hands correctly, the basics are roughly:

Verse: E A D E

Pre Chorus: G A

Chorus: E G A C D

Bridge: C G C G A D

There's probably some transitions in there that I missed, but listening to the song, you ought to be able to hear them and fill them as you see fit ;)

Good Luck!

Nice cover man! I love it! I just had to jam along with my bass.

[FussenKuh]

Glad you enjoyed it. I'd love to have hear that jam of yours :)

Good job. You should really look into buying a full-sized acoustic.

[FussenKuh]

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. As for the "full-sized" acoustic thing, I'm a bit confused. I'm playing a full-sized Epiphone Masterbilt.  It just has a capo on it ;)

[johnjay1980]

You need to sing or find a vocalist to make perfect, but nice playing none the less!

[LightBulbxXx]

Thats an epiphone acoustic yea? and why have you got a capo on...4th frett? you don't need a capo at all...and i can tell what chords your playing just by watcing you..but with no capo on the guitar the chords are Verse: G,C,F,G Pre chorus:G,A# Chorus: G,A#,C,A,A
