Harmony - raise a little hell

Hey all. We are covering the trooper song "raise a little hell". I am having a hard time trying to figure out the individual notes for the harmony. The underlaying chords are A, G, D, A - but the harmony does not follow this (we tried, but no luck). There might be a root A sung through the whole chorus.

 

Any ideas?

 

thanks

Just listened to it on YouTube. Sounds pretty easy to me.

 

From what I can make out, the vocal harmonies in the chorus are A (E-A-C#), G (G-B-D), D (F#-A-D), and back to A.

 

What may be causing confusion to your ears is that the bass guitar is playing an A note throughout the chorus--which is a technique called "pedal point". But the chords on top are just your basic triads--A, G, D, and A.

 

Cool song. I don't think I've ever heard it before.
