Subject: "Sweet Transvestite" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show

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?!?

SWEET TRANSVESTITE

( Frank N Furter )

( Intro : E )

     D# E
	How do you do, I
     F# G
	See you've met my
     G# A
	Faithful handyman.

     D# E G  G# A A

     D# E
	He's just a little brought down
     F# G
	Because when you knocked
     G# A
	He thought you were the candyman.

     D# E G  G# A A

     D# E
	Don't get strung out
     F# G
	by the way I look.
     G# A                         D# E
	Don't judge a book by its cover.

     D# E
	I'm not much of a man
     F# G
	by the light of day
     G# A                              D# E
	But by night I'm one hell of a lover.

        E          B
	I'm just a sweet transvestite
            A                      E    D# E
	From Transexual, Transylvania.

     D# E
	Let me show you around
     F# G
	Maybe play you a sound.
     G# A                                D# E
	You look like you're both pretty groovy.

     D# E
	Or if you want something visual
     F# G
	That's not too abysmal,
     G# A                          D#  E
	We could take in an old Steve Reeves movie.

     D# E
	I'm glad we caught you at home,
     F# G
	Could we use your phone?
     G# A                              D# E
	We're both in a bit of a hurry.    Right.

     D# E
	We'll just say where we are,
     F# G
	Then go back into the car.
     G# A                             D#  E
	We don't want to be any worry.

     D# E
	Well you got with a flat,
     F# G
	Well, how 'bout that?
     G# A                      D# E
	Well, babies, don't you panic.

     D# E
	By the light of the night
     F# G
	It'll all seem alright.
     G# A                     D# E
	I'll get you a satanic mechanic.

	E          B
	I'm just a sweet transvestite
	    A                      E    D# E
	From Transexual, Transylvania.

     D# E
	Why don't you stay for the night?  Night.
     F# G
	Or maybe a bite?  Bite.
     G# A                            D# E
	I could show you my favourite ... obsession.

     D# E
	I've been making a man
     F# G
	With blond hair and a tan
     G# A                             D# E
	And he's good for relieving my ... tension

	E          B
	I'm just a sweet transvestite
	    A                      E    D# E
	From Transexual, Transylvania.        HIT IT! HIT IT!
	E          B
	I'm just a sweet transvestite, Sweet transvestite
	    A                      E    D# E
	From Transexual, Transylvania.

	E	(with a slide!)

				 E
	So - come up to the lab,
				    G
	And see what's on the slab.
					 N.C.
	I see you shiver with antici ...
		    E
	... pation.

			   E
	But maybe the rain
			       G
	Isn't really to blame.
		                  A
	So I'll remove the cause.
			                E
	(chuckles) But not the symptom.
