T. Rex – 20th Century Baby

This is quite the pretty little song, and sounds great when played on an acoustic. I
it on the T. Rex “Work in Progress” 2 disc set, it appears on both discs in stripped-down
and full-band forms.

Enjoy!

Verse:

G Em
The highlight of my life was meeting you

G D D7
That windy autumn day at Malibu

Chorus:

Your face was heaven sent

My mind laid hard to rent

D C G D7
Girl be my 20th century baby

(chords continue as such for whole song.)

2nd verse/chorus:
Love comes but once to men the wise men say
I knew that must be true that LA day
Your diamond eyes that shine
The rubies of your mind
Girl be my 20th century baby
