"One of the greatest put together songs that Aerosmith ever did. Those were my thoughts on UFOs, the theory of evolution, the monkey, and Adam and Eve. How incredibly naive to think that there were just those two people just buzzing around the woods naked, having a blast." -Steven Tyler
"Adam's Apple"(Steven Tyler)
Performed by Aerosmith on "Toys in the Attic"(1975) Transcribed by Bryson Meunier intro- (1/2 step) E-----------5-----------------------5---------------| B-----------5----------4b4-4r---2---5---------4b4-4r| G-----------2----------4b4-4r---2---2---------4b4-4r| D-----------2----------4b4-4r---2---2---------4b4-4r| A---3b-p0-------3b-p0-----------0-------3b-p0-------| E---------------------------------------------------|
E------5--------------------------------------------| B--2---5-----------4b4-4r--5------------------------| G--2---2-----------4b4-4r--5------------------------| D--2---2-----------4b4-4r--5------------------------| A--0-------3b-p0------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------------|
The verse riff,upon which most of the song is built, is very similar in structure to the intro. The only difference is the beginning and the end. In other words, it's just this over and over again: rhy.fig.1- E------5-----------------------| B---2--5-----------4b-4-4r-----| G---2--2-----------4b-4-4r-----| D---2--2-----------4b-4-4r-----| A---0------3b-p0---------------| E------------------------------|
A(palm muted) Back when Cain was able way before the stable Lightning struck right down from the sky
At this point, the guitar plays this: rhy.fig 2- D5 C#5 C5 B5 B E------------------------2----| B------------------------4----| G----7----7--6--5--4-----4----| D----7----7--6--5--4-----4----| A----5----5--4--3--2-----2----| E-----------------------------| (strum the last chord in rhythm with the song)
A mothership with faith said "Let's give it a try"(rhy.fig 1) A Conscience was related Man, he was created Lady Luck took him by surprise(rhy.fig.2) E Her sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes chorus- D Well, she ate it F Lordy it was love at first bite(rhy.fig 1) D Well she ate it G F#m E Never knowin' wrong from right right right
The chord progression is pretty much the same until the end. The rest of the lyrics go like this:
Even Eve in Eden voices tried deceivin' with lies to show the lady the way At first she stopped and turned and tried to walk away
Man, he was believer Lady was deceiver so the story goes, but you see The snake was he and she just climbed right up his tree So...(go into chorus)
Science was related man, he was created when Lady Luck took him by surprise Her sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes
Evil came like rain an' who knows who's to blame an' Somethin' tried to lay her to waste and all she'd want to need was just a little taste (chorus)
End on a variation of rhy.fig. 1 and throw the E chord in over "that's right!" That's basically it. It should be pretty accurate because it's similar if not identical to the way that Joe Perry played it in a Rockumentary clip of Texxas Jam '78(I'm pretty sure that's what it was). Please consider posting the solo if you know it.
