Artist: Cheap Trick
Title: "In the Street" (aka "That 70's Song")
Album: "Authorized Greatest Hits," "That 70's Show Presents That
70's Album: Rockin'"

Original version performed by Big Star, composed by Chris Bell and
Alex Chilton

Additional music and lyrics by Rick Nielsen

Original tab by Ben G. (guitarwanker900@hotmail.com)
revised: Chris Clark 

Here's the complete corrected version of a crowd-pleasing song
that's a snap to play, either solo or with a band. More than a
straight cover of Big Star's "In the Street," Cheap Trick modifies
the song's basic structure, transposing it from G to D (use a capo on
the fifth fret if you want to be authentic and/or you can handle
Chilton's high nasal whine), embellishing the main verses with a D9-
C9-G progression (in the original, they're sung over the main riff),
adding the "Dear Prudence"-inspired B riff after the "not a thing to
do" chorus (the original simply vamps on A, played as E if you're
using that capo), and changing the chords at the "yeah!" part before
the main riff returns for the solos. There's also a bunch of new
lyrics, substituting Nixon nostalgia for the chorus about jonesing
for a joint (see "Surrender," which also inspired the "Mom and Dad"
lyrics here, not to mention the "we're all alright" bit in the
bridge), and all the Wisconsin references in honor of the TV show for
which it serves as the opening theme. Recommended chord positions at
the bottom.
