Chords
i don’t have quite the right voicings for these chords,
but there’s only one recording and its very low quality.
ive done my best.
F# = X-9-11-11-11-9 C# = 9-9-11-10-9-X C#7 = 9-11-9-10-9-9 E = 7-9-9-8-7-7
the F#-C#-F# is a very quick riff-- listen to the song.
[Intro]
F# C# F# | E | F# | F# x2
[Verse]
F# C# F# E the wild donkeys kicking, braying in the middle F# F# made you wanna kick and bray yourself, at least you said so F# C# F# E you were wild eyed, your lips were flecked with foam F# F# till raw calcutta called you home
[Interlude]
F# C# F# | E | F# | F#
[Verse]
F# C# F# E twin rivers flowing brought a flush into your cheeks F# F# at the spot where the trickling streams and rivers meet F# C# F# E the wind from off the snowcapped mountain cooled you down F# F# till raw calcutta brought you back around
[Bridge]
C#7 C#7 i could hear the prophets F# F# yelling in the street C#7 C#7 and your eyes were pure poison, F# C#7 but your skin was sweet, hey!
[Outro]
