Song: Boys Boys Boys
Artist: Lady Gaga
Album: The Fame
Tuning: Standard, capo 2
[All chords/tabs are relative to capo on the second fret.]
Obviously there isn't any guitar in this song.
But you would play this along with the synth.
NOTE: The chorus requires a little explanation.
If you want, you can play power chords
instead of open chords. Here's how that would go:
Instead of G, you'd play A:
E|-----|
B|-----|
G|-----|
D|--7--|
A|--7--|
E|--5--|
Instead of D, you'd play E:
E|-----|
B|-----|
G|--9--|
D|--9--|
A|--7--|
E|-----|
Instead of C, you'd play D:
E|-----|
B|-----|
G|--7--|
D|--7--|
A|--5--|
E|-----|
If you want to hear how it should sound,
you'll be able to hear it in the last thirty seconds
of this video of Lady Gaga performing
"Boys Boys Boys" live, where there is a guitar playing:

Also, I have also tabbed "Bad Romance" and "Just Dance!"
Keep an eye on my page for more Lady Gaga tabs in the future. :)
Anyway, here's the tab!

VERSE/whatever you'd call it:
So I should explain that for this part,
you would only play during the first "oh,"
the one's that are capitalized.
Other than those parts, it's all beat and no synth.
