Status Quo
Dog Of Two Head 1973


Let me guess...  You saw them last night 
and wanna learn this song.
Well as that is the most popular case, 
I have written this out similar to how the
 modern line up play it live.
It is extremely similar to the '73 version however.

Francis: Standard Tuned Telecaster capo 5th fret
Rick:    Standard Tuned Telecaster
Rhino:   Standard Tuned Telecaster capo 5th fret
Andy:    Standard Tuned Semi Acoustic


Francis:
E|---------------------|
B|---3---3---3---3---3-|
G|---------------------|
D|-0---0---0---0---0---|and so on...
A|---------------------|
E|---------------------|


Then the band comes in

Francis:
E|---------------------|
B|--3---3-3---3-3---3--|
G|---0h2---0h2---0h2---|
D|-0-----0-----0-----0-|
A|---------------------|
E|---------------------|



All of this is played under the Gm chords,
well at least for Rick and Andrew as Frame and Rhino do the solo.

The Band play their F's like this:

Francis and Rhino:
E|-0-|
B|-1-|
G|-0-|
D|-2-|
A|-3-|
E|---|

Rick and Andy:
E|-1-|
B|-1-|
G|-2-|
D|-3-|
A|-3-|
E|-1-|



The band play their D#s like this:

Francis and Rhino:
E|---|
B|-3-|
G|-3-|
D|-3-|
A|---|
E|---|

Rick and Andy:
E|---|
B|-8-|
G|-8-|
D|-8-|
A|-6-|
E|---|


Their D chords are these shapes shifted down one semitone.

Francis and Rhino:
E|---|
B|-2-|
G|-2-|
D|-2-|
A|---|
E|---|

Rick and Andy:
E|---|
B|-7-|
G|-7-|
D|-7-|
A|-5-|
E|---|



Francis also has a lick that is repeated quite a lot.
It goes like this...
E|------------------|
B|------------------|
G|-2p1p0------------|
D|-------3-0--------|
A|-----------0------|
E|------------------|


Gm                              F  Gm
Love it seems I just can't find
                                F  Gm
Love it seems I just can't find
D#                         D
Seems that I'm the one love
                    Gm
The one love left behind

Gm                                    F  Gm
I've searched it just won't come my way
                                      F  Gm
I've searched it just won't come my way
       D#                  D
It's love that I want now
                        Gm
So what more can I say


SOLO

Gm                       F  Gm
Women seem to pass me by
                         F  Gm
Women seem to pass me by
   D#                       D
If I could find the reason
                     Gm
I'd know the answer why


Gm                              F  Gm
Love it seems I just can't find
                                F  Gm
Love it seems I just can't find
D#                         D
Seems that I'm the one love
                    Gm
The one love left behind


Before I forget they finish the song like this:

Francis and Rhino:
E|-1-1-1-1-0-1-|
B|-3-3-3-3-1-3-|
G|-2-2-2-2-0-2-|
D|-0-0-0-0-2-0-|

G|-3-3-3-3-2-3-|
D|-5-5-5-5-3-5-|
A|-5-5-5-5-3-5-|
