Tenement Funster

Words and music by Roger Taylor

Em    Am

Em            Am
My new purple shoes 
       Em                    G
'bin amazing the people next door
   G7                       C           
And my rock'n'roll 45's 
       Eb                      D                Fm       D7 D7 D7 D7
'bin enraging the folks on the lower floor 


Em                    Am
I got a way  with the girls on my block
          Em                   Am
Tryin' my best be a real individual
Em                     G           G7
But when we go down to Smokies and rock
          C                         D7 (8x)
They line up like it's some kinda ritual


Chorus: 
Em            Am
Ooh give me a good guitar 
            m                       Am 
and you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Em                 G           
or just buy me an open car
G7            C                          D7
I'll make the speed of light out of this place


Em              Am
I like the good things in life
    Em                            Am
But most of the best things ain't free
     Em                  G
This same situation just cuts like a knife
             G7               C               D7
When you 're young and you're poor and you're crazy


Chorus:

Ooh give me... etc.
