Creedence Clearwater Revival foi uma banda de rock 'n' roll californiana formada por John Fogerty (guitarra e vocais principais), Tom Fogerty (guitarra), Stu Cook (baixo) e Doug Clifford (bateria), que, sob outras denominações, tocavam juntos desde 1959. Adotaram o nome Creedence Clearwater Revival em 1967, com o qual lançaram as primeiras gravações em 1968.
O nome surgiu pela junção do nome de um amigo de Tom Fogerty, Credence Nubal, com Clearwater

"Effigy" by Creedence Clearwater Revival from the album Willy and the Poorboys--1969 transribed hastily (too hastily, since I got it wrong and had to fix it) by Patrick Glass ([email protected])
Just the chords, because I can't quite make out all of the solo, but once you know what the chords are, it's not too hard.
This is the whole chord progression:
CDDsus4DGCGEE7EE7
Put it with the words and it sounds like this
CDDsus4D Last night, GCGEE7EE7 I saw the fire burning on the palace door CDDsus4D O'er the land, GCGEE7EE7 Humble subjects watched with mixed emotion CDDsus4D Who is burning GCAm7EE7EE7 Who is burning the effigy (repeat that line again)
And here are all the words for the song:
Last night, I saw the fire burning on the palace lawn O'er the land, humble subjects watched with mixed emotion Who is burning, who is burning, the effigy?? Who is burning, who is burning, effigy??
Last night, I saw the fire spreading to the palace door Silent majority wasn't keeping quiet anymore Who is burning, who is burning, the effigy?? Who is burning, who is burning, effigy??
Last night, I saw the fire spreading to the countryside In the morning, few were left to watch the ashes die Who is burning, who is burning, the effigy?? Who is burning, who is burning, effigy?? Why? Why? Why? Effigy!
By far, my favorite CCR song. It just kicks.
NOTE:You could play the second G as a G/B (x20003). It sounds pretty good that way, and might actually be the way it goes. But I wouldn't know :)
