[Trans. I Lathwell]
This is how I think it sounds, but it is just from listening to the record and so could well be wrong. If anyone has any comments then please send them to me.
[Intro/E Riff] The Intro and other E chord places is a riff that repeats between E and Esus4 (002220), I think the rythmn is something like ||S|||S|||S|||S (With S being the Sus4 chord)
Intro- E/ESus4 F# A
Verse 1- E F# A E Is it my imagination, or have I finally found something worth looking for, E F# A E I was looking for some action, but all I found was Cigarettes and Alcohol,
Chorus- A E A E You could wait for a lifetime, to spend your days in the sunshine, A E D You might as well be a white lie, 'cause when it comes on top, (???? Words) A E A E You gotta make it happen, you gotta make it happen, (X2)
D A E A E ... to solo
Verse 2- Is it worth the agrivation, to find yourself a job when there's nothing worth working for, It's a crazy situation, but all I need are Cigarettes and Alcohol,
Chorus-
Solo....
Ad lib and mess around bit- E A You gotta make it E A You gotta fake it (X2)
That's all I got. I think listening to T Rex might be a good source for the other Riffs in the song, as they all seem to be stolen from some song or other.
[Note on pronounciation] The way words are sung makes a big difference to this song, any word that ends in tion, should be said 'sheeeon'. Sunshine is pronounced 'sonsheeeeine'.
Columbia, written by Liam and Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis. Song can be found on the album "Definitely Maybe", and the "white label demo" version of the song can be found on the UK "Supersonic" single.
Tab Key:
b = bend (7b8 means bend the string at the 7th fret to make approximately the note that the string would make if it were played at the 8th fret with no bend) r = release bend h = hammer on p = pull off x = mute the string with one of your fingers
NOTE: Though most of the song just goes from "A" to "D" to "C", here's how Noel plays along with those basic chords when the guitar first comes in at the beginning of the song until the first chorus:
A D C A e---------------------------------------------------------------------------- B--2------------------------------3-----------------------------2------------ G--2----------------------------2-2-------------2-0-----------0-2------------ D--2----------------------------2-0-------------2-2-----------0-2------------ A--0----------------------------0-0-------------0-3-----------x-0------------ E-------------------------------------------------------------3--------------

NOTE: While Bonehead is playing the basic chord progression above the following tab in the intro and verses, Noel is playing something like this:

Live Forever, written by Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis Song can be found on the album "Live Forever" and was released as a CD single.
Chords used:
EADGBe G (3x0033) D (xx0232) Am7 (x02010) C (x32010) Em (022000) Fmaj7 (x33210)
[NOTE: I've tried like crazy to determine if the "Am7" used in this song is really an "Am", but since the two chords are so similar sounding, I couldn't be sure. Anyways, I'm pretty sure it's an "Am7" during most of the song, but an "Am" at the end when Liam's singing "Gonna live forever" over and over.]
Verse 1 ------- G D Maybe, I don't really wanna know Am7 How your garden grows C D I just wanna fly
Verse 2 ------- G D Lately, did you ever feel the pain Am7 in the morning rain C D as it soaks it to the bone
Chorus ------ Em D Maybe I just wanna fly Am7 Wanna live I don't wanna die C Maybe I just wanna breathe D Em Maybe I just don't believe D Maybe you're the same as me Am7 We see things they'll never see Fmaj7 You and I are gonna live forever
End of the song alternates Am and Fmaj7 while Liam's singing "Gonna live forever" again and again.
I'll be sure to post the tabs for the guitar solos when I have time.

Oasis "Live Forever" Transcribed by Mark ZurSchmiede (a.k.a. ZurSch)
Okay, I got all of the solo in there for you, I read in a magazine that it was played as a pentatonic scale on the 12th, and figured it out from there, but it sounds closer, and better when played as a pentatonic on the 14th so I maybe they were wrong, or maybe you have to change your tunings. You decide. Also the part of the solo where Ive indicated with *========*, I just pick all the notes in that lick, but I don't think you are supposed to. I let you figure that part out.
G D Am7 C Em _X____ XXO___ XO_O_O X__O_O O__OOO |||||| |||||| ||||O| ||||O| |||||| |O|||| |||O|O ||O||| ||O||| |OO||| O|||OO ||||O| |||||| |O|||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||
Maybe, I dont really wanna know, How your garden grows, 'cause I just wanna fly. Lately, did you ever feel the pain, In the mornin' rain, as it soaks you to the bone.
Maybe I just wanna fly, wanna live I don't wanna die, Maybe I just wanna breathe, Maybe I just don't believe, Maybe your the same as me, we see things they'll never see, You and I are gonna live forever.
Gonna live forever, gonna live forever. Gonna live forever, gonna live forever, Gonna live forever, gonna live forever.

NOTE: For all the "11" chords in this song (A11, B11, G11, F#11), the rythym for strumming these chords is something like this (this example is from the BRIDGE of the song):
Rock n' Roll Star, written by Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis. Song can be found on the album "Definitely Maybe".
Chords used:
EADGBe B (x24442) C#m (x46654) A (x02220) G#m (466444) E (022100) F# (244322)
There is a riff played along with the "B" chord in the intro and verses that I can't, for the life of me, play so it sounds EXACTLY like the record, but below is an attempt that sounds close. The tab below is played in ALL the verses in the song, as well as during the "B" chord in the chorus. Here goes:
b=bend (3b4 means bend the string at the 3rd fret to make the note that the string would make if it was played at the 4th fret without bending.)

Here, song goes to an "A", then starts alternating between "F#" and "E", then Liam starts singing "It's just rock and roll" and the alternation between "F# and "E" starts getting faster, and that's the end of the song.

At the end of the song, where Liam's going "slide away" over and over, the chords alternate from F2 to D/F# with the below guitar fill (as well as some variations of it) until the song ends.
Up In The Sky, written by Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis. Song can be found on the album "Definitely Maybe" and an acoustic version of the song can be found on the UK "Live Forever" single.
I saw that someone finally did a transcription of this song, but although it was close, a few chords were incorrect, so here goes:
Chords used:
EADGBe G (3x0033) Fadd9 (xx3213) C (x32010) Cadd6 (x32013) C5 (x3555x) A7/C# (x42020) can also be played easier as (x456xx) D (x57775) Em (x79987)
Here's the tab for the riff that is played through all the "G" chords during the verses of the song: (I'll call it "Main Riff"):
e---------------------------------------- B---------------------------------------- G------0-----------0-----0--------------- (this repeats a bunch of times) D---------------3---------------3--5----- A---------3--5-------------3--5---------- E---3-----------------3---------------3--
Also, there is a little fill played during each "Fadd9" and the "Cadd6" during the verses:
Fadd9 Cadd6 e--3----3-----3----3----- B--1-------1--1-------1-- G--2----------0---------- (then back to "main riff") D--3----------2---------- A-------------3---------- E------------------------
Verse 1 ------- [NOTE: the above riffs are played by a 2nd guitar while the other guitar plays the below chords]
G Hey you! Up in the sky, learning to fly, tell me how high Fadd9 Cadd6 G Do you think you'll go, before you start fallin' G Hey you! Up in the tree, you wanna be me, well that couldn't be Fadd9 Cadd6 G 'cos the people here, they don't hear you callin'
Chorus ------ C A7/C# How does it feel G (w/ main riff) When you're inside me.
Verse 2 ------- [same chords and riffs used as verse 1]
Hey you! wearing the crown, making no sound, I heard you feel down Well that's too bad, welcome to my world Hey you! stealing the light, I heard that the shine's gone out of your life Well that's just too bad, welcome to my world C A7/C# So how does it feel G When you're inside me?
Bridge ------ D Em D C5 You'll need assistance with the things that you have never ever seen D It's just a case of never breathing out Em D C5 Before you've breathed it in A7/C# C G So how does it feel when you're inside me e--0---0--0--0--0---0---0---0-----0---0--0--0--0--0--0--0------------------ B--2---2--0--2--3---2---0---2-----1---1--0--1--3--1--0--1------------------ G--0---0--0--0--0---0---0---0-----0---0--0--0--0--0--0--0----------main---- D--2---2--2--2--2---2---2---2-----2---2--2--2--2--2--2--2----------riff---- A--4---4--4--4--4---4---4---4-----3---3--3--3--3--3--3--3------------------ E--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[NOTE: the above tab is a combination of the chords played by guitar 1 and the fill played by guitar 2. It sounds cool if you're only playing with one guitar (that is, if you're not playing with somebody else) :) ]
[REPEAT VERSE 1]
