REQUEST - Some Beach - Blake Shelton

[jerbear]

I'm coming to Guitars a bit late in life with hands some say are like shovels. I use two fingers for an A chord. I'm a rank beginner so be gentle with me. So uch so I thought a riff was a burp! Still not sure what it is but now I know what it's not.
STOP LAUGHING.

Have only just found this site as well after having seen a few mojo videos.

3 chords sounds good to me as long as one isn't an F.
This song apparenty has 3 chords anyway, C, G and F.
I CANNOT DO BAR CHORDS! Arrrggghhh. Fat fingers that don't straighten too well.

This is one of many songs I'd like to have a go at. Have only just found this guy and this is the first song I've heard from him. Gonna look for some more now.

If you can help Mojo......one of your excellent video tutorials.

here are the words, and at the bottom some info I got on the "riff" and tabs.

Some Beach – Blake Shelton
Driving down the interstate, running thirty minutes late,
singing Margaretville, and minding my own,
Some foreign car driver dude, with a road rage attitude
pulled up beside me talking on his cell phone
He started yelling at me like I did something wrong
He flipped me the bird, and then he was gone
Some Beach, Some where
There’s a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair
Palm trees growing and warm breezes blowing
I pictured myself right there
On Some Beach, Some where
I circled the parking lot, trying to find a spot,
just big enough, I could park my old truck
A man with a big cigar, was getting into his car
I stopped and I waited for him to back up
but From outta nowhere a Mercedes Benz,
came cruising up, and whipped right in
Some Beach, Some where
there’s nowhere to go and you got all day to get there
there’s cold margarita’s and hot senorita’s, smiling with long dark hair
On Some Beach, Some where
Well I sat in that waiting room, seemed like all afternoon,
The nurse finally said doc’s ready for you
You’re not going to feel a thing, We’ll give you some novocaine
That tooth will be fine in a minute or two
But he stuck that needle down deep in my gum
and He started drilling before I was numb
Some Beach, Some where
There’s a beautiful sunset burning up the atmosphere
there’s Music and dancing and lovers romancing in the salty evening air
On Some Beach, Some where
On Some Beach, Some where
