Original Song by Mott the Hoople
[Verse]
G
Down in the basement
C/G
Stands his brother on a fender bass guitar when
D
We were looking for a suitable replacement
G
To play for Henry and the H-Bombs
C/G
I can't remember don't know where we got the name from
D
All I know is that we've been together too long
G
Not making it with Henry and the H-Bombs
[Chorus]
C/G
Don't you know he comes on about the flowers
G
He can talk for hours and for hours
D
About the rain and the showers
G
But his whole trip is a power
C/G
So get along in the meanwhile
G
Cause heaven knows it could change in a wing while
D
That's no way to treat your boy
N.C.
Halfway faking it, halfway taking it
[Verse]
G
With Henry and the H-Bombs
C/G
I can't remember don't know where we got the name from
D
All I know is that we've been together too long
G
Not making it with Henry and the H-Bombs
[Break]
C Cadd2 C Cadd2 C D D6 D D6 D G
[Chorus]
C/G
Don't you know he comes on about the flowers
G
He can talk for hours and for hours
D
About the rain and the showers
G
But his whole trip is a power
C/G
So get along in the meanwhile
G
Cause heaven knows it could change in a wing while
D
That's no way to make love
N.C.
Halfway taking it, halfway faking it
[Outro]
G
With Henry and the H-Bombs
C/G
I can't remember don't know where we got the name from
D
All I know is that we've been together too long
G
Not making it with Henry and the H-Bombs
