You're walking like you've never seen the light
You're walking like it every night
But I've never seen you dance and I've never heard you sing
Am Dm Cm C C (strum lots) F RIFF e|---2--------7-------|
So how can it mean a single thing? B|-----3--------8-----|
G|-------4/-------9---|
It's all so rudimentary (RIFF) D|--------------------|
A|--------------------|
-------- E|--------------------|
(9-11-12-11-9 bit on guitar 1 and F strums on guitar 2) for 2 bars
You're talking like you're handy in the fight
You talk about it every night
But I've never seen those flowers in the barrel of your gun
All I've ever seen you do is run...
Not a rude boy you're the gentry (RIFF)
So tell me baby, how does it feel?
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band, the boys in the band...
(9-11-12-11-9 bit on guitar 1 and F strums on guitar 2) for 2 bars
You're walking like you've never seen the light
You're walking like it every night
But then I stop to thinks and I ask myself why?
It's one of those things that darling you must try
It's all so rudimentary (RIFF)
So tell me baby, how does it feel?
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band, the boys in the band...
