Hi,

Here are (as promised) the lyrics and chords to :

"Sweet Transvestite"

I have tried to reply to everyone who emailed me asking for "Rocky Horror
Picture Show" songs by mailing a copy of this and "Whatever Happened To
Saturday Night" to them aswell as by posting the songs to news and nevada.edu

I got the lyrics from cs.uwp.edu (though I edited them a little) and
worked the Chords out mostly by just playing my guitar like a bass along
with the CD - I hope they're correct!

The song has a fairly simple progression of Chords that you should be able
to follow pretty easily - especially if you mainly use "E-form bar Chords".
The Chorus part of the song has its Chords played sort of "12-bar blues
style" - use your little finger! Apart from that the song is pretty basic
although I might not have put the Chords into their EXACT position above the
lyrics.

The version of the song that I worked this out from was on :

"The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD
(Music from the original soundtrack of the
20th century fox presentation of the Michael
White/Lou Adler Production)

In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry
- not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!

COMING SOON : "Eddie's Teddy" & "Super Heroes" - are these wanted?!?

So - come up to the lab,
GG Piano Chord 

And see what's on the slab.
N.C.
I see you shiver with antici ...
EE Piano Chord 

... pation.

EE Piano Chord 

But maybe the rain
GG Piano Chord 

Isn't really to blame.
AA Piano Chord 

So I'll remove the cause.
EE Piano Chord 

(chuckles) But not the symptom.
