Intro
C F G
You better you better you bet
C F G
I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes
I sometimes feel I should just go home but I'm dealing with a memory that
never forgets
I love to hear you say my name especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind but I've drunk myself blind to the
Am
sound of old T.Rex
Gm F Bb
Hm
F Abmaj7
To the sound of old T Rex
C Gsus4 G
Oh, and who's next
C F
When I say I love you you say you better
Am G C
You better you better you bet
C F
When I say I need you you say you better
Am G Dm
You better you better you bet
Dm Am G
You better bet your life
Dm
Or love will cut you
Am G
Cut you like a knife
I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
I'm not into your passport picture, I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs
I don't really mind how much you love me
Oh a little is all right
When you say come over and spend the night
Tonight Tonight
Chorus
Ab Eb
I lay on the bed with you
Bb C
We could make some book of records
Ab Eb
Your dog keeps licking my nose
Bb D Am G
And chewing up all those letters saying you better
Dm Dm Am G
You better bet your life
Am G Am
You better love me
Am G Am
all the time now
C G C
you better shove me
C G C
Back into line now
I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier
I know I've been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy sometimes
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line everytime
And when it comes to all that living
I know what I'm giving
I've got it all down to a tee
And it's free
Chorus
Chorus
D G
When I say I love you you say you better
Bm A D
You better you better you bet
D G
When I say I need you you say you better
Bm A D
You better you better you bet
G A
G A
You better bet your life
G A
Or love will cut you
G A G
Just like a knife

| It looks like the lyrics are slightly wrong here. The line actually says "To the sound of old T-Rex, and who's next". Who's next, being The Who's 1971 album. Which is pretty great reference that they are listening to their own album. Great song. | |
