(same as the begining)
You need to be youself
You can't be no one else
I know a girl called Ailsa
She's into alka-seltza
She sniffs it through a cane
On a supersonic train
And she makes me laugh
I've got her autograph
She done it with a doctor
On a helicopter
She sniffed it in a tissue
Selling the big issue
When she finds out
No ones's gonna tell her what I'm on about
You need to find away for
What you want to say
But before tomorrow
(repeat chorus twice)

^ =Let notes ring or hold note
Note: play this through with some slight variations, try replacing the
last chord with a straight B(x24442) or something!
I only have an acoustic so it probably sounds great on an electric!
Listening to the song carefully, it sounds as if the intro is also played
occasionally under the distorted main chords by a second guitar so just
muck about with it!!!!!
Thanks to: poulain@enserb.u-bordeaux.fr
who posted the tab above which I use for guitar#1 and
sounds great, even on my crappy acoustic!
If anyone could post the twiddley little bits played under the main chords
on Wonderwall please post it to "patrick@spy.net" 'cause I think my e-mail
may be a little screwed and doubt that I will get any thing this end. And
the solo to Champagne Supernova would "absolutely make my millennium!"
Thanks again to patrick for posting this great page and using my crappy
tab.
Cheers jason

The transcriptions to Supersonic are cool but there is a little lick
played during the chorus that hasn't been listed. It's played over the
rhythm guitar and is a little tough to make out. Listen to the song to
get the timing right. It is roughly as follows,

Supersonic
(by Noel Gallagher)
I've found that Noel is Using The B7 Chord that played in Classic
through the verses in the live acoustic version
It goes like this :
B7 (x2120x) (This Chord also used in the opening melody of Shakermaker)
F#m(244222)
A (x02220)
Intro : F#m A B7
F#m A B7
I need to be myself
F#m A B7
I can't be no one else
F#m A B7
I'm feelin' Supersonic, give me gin And tonic
And so on........
Just tell me what you think about it
