Avengers Superbad

On By MaryIn T.Rex Guitar TabsLeave a comment

This is a simple song with a repetative chord sequence

E
superbad tiger running with your brain,

tucked beneath your arms like a devil’s train
A
when the angels from the heavens meat the angels from the earth
E
we’ll hide inside our cave aha that’s right of course

G A E
and we know, we ain’t slow we’re the avengers

E
i’ve known lots of ladies

and the ladies know me

i’ve been foxy roxy punctured and I’m funky born free
A
you can needle treacle kiss me with the honey from your mouth
E
but belive me I’m a bad moon bopster

and i’ll never come in your house

G A E
and we know, we ain’t slow we’re the avengers

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!

Intro: G

Verse:

G Em
The highlight of my life was meeting you

G D D7
That windy autumn day at Malibu

Chorus:

C
Your face was heaven sent

G
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

1 verse of do-do-do’s, then 2nd chorus over
repeat 1st verse/chorus

end on G
