Big Shot
Tono: Original
Big Shot
By: Billy Joel
There are many chords in this song that are written as a triad over a bass note.
Listen to the song and work out the correct syncopation with the bass and triad.
If timed correctly, you will find this works very well.
The Esus4 which appears commonly throughout should not have a third. But if it
did, it should be thought of as an Em rather than EMaj.

Esus4 G
Well you went uptown riding in your limousine
Esus4 G
With your fine Park Avenue clothes

You had the Dom Perignon in your hand

And the spoon up your nose
Esus4 G
And when you wake up in the morning With your head on fire
Esus4 G
And your eyes too bloody to see
Esus4 D6
Go on and cry in your coffee but don't
C F/C C
Come bitchin' to me

Well, it's no big sin to stick your two cents in
