Rock Your Body’s chords, progressions, and TAB
Justin Timberlake‘s Rock Your Body was the third single from his debut album Justified.
The album sold 10 million copies worldwide, with three additional singles all being massive hits (Senorita, Cry Me A River, and Like I Love You).
Rock Your Body is possibly the one that has proved to have the greatest legacy, still being played by DJs and bands the world over.
As a guitarist, you could just think of Rock Your Body’s chorus chords as F – G – Em, since that’s what you’ll actually play.
However, as the bass plays the F/G and G/A, that is the full sound of Rock Your Body’s chords.
To get the sound absolutely band on, you need TAB, which is available to members, as well as a full chord analysis, this is especially important for the middle 8 section.
Here’s a link to the complete lesson (members only): Rock Your Body analysis and TAB.
