...ok, please bear with me on this one, I'm serious.
I can't find a tab for David Essex's "Gonna Make You a Star.." anywhere. A number of people elsewhere have suggested there may be a perfectly good reason for that but, well, I happen to love it and it's be a number I'd love to do.
I've got the basic key I think but I'm really struggling with the bridge bit (as in...."Well I know I've been out of style..." etc.)
Can anyone point me in the right direction (apart from the door, that is...)?
Thanks!

Re: David Essex Chords Help...
don't have the song - for a good reason
- had a quick listen on youtube, sounds like a groove on F# with a quick change to G#minor alternating with a quick change to B. Then the change seems to be G#minor / A#minor / Bmaj / A#minor / G#minor / A#minor then as hits - B, A#minor, G#minor and back to the groove.
maybe someone who knows it better can correct me, or maybe nobody will want to admit to knowing it
I really should be too busy for this.......

Sit down with your axe of choice and figure out what `billy the bass player` is playing & 99.9999 % that will be the roots or 5s.

Thanks guys, helpful and actually confirms by and large what I thought was the case.
Sorry for putting you through what sounds like a tortuous few minutes for you. Can't beat a good bit of cheese though, eh??

Re: David Essex Chords Help...
Yep, thanks Ivan, I think the suggestion by Fletcher above has cracked the code here. It (the bridge bit) is definitely a sequence of progression upwards and running back down again.
Now I've just got to convince the other band members to do it....
