Let It Bleed, Genevieve

[Intro] E  A  E  A  B

E
Genevieve lay bleeding in my 
basement
B                         A
Misconceiving life again
E         C#m             G#m   
Up on the sidewalk, her 
     C#m
replacement
B                      A
Waiting to be skinned

E
Bobby wants a lady from the low 
lands
B                             A
And I'd like to have one too
E         C#m               G#m 
Paul said, "One in the bush 
              C#m
worth two in your hand"
B                                 
Even then you'll find there are 
       A
too few

E
Genevieve lay dreaming on my ceiling
B                            
A thought came, rolling stone, 
                   A
across her mind
E            C#m        G#m      C#m
Looking down with great feeling
B                              A
I'll trade you yours for mine

E
Just try to sing in choirs, hear the
 old gears grind
B                                 
And upstairs they'll say, "There's
                  A
 too much noise"
E          C#m           G#m    C#m
I tell the lady we'll be quiet
B                            A
She knows boys will be boys

( E  B  A  E  C#m  G#m  C#m  B  A )

E
Gene Gene Gene, what's the matter
B                                 
You'll get your way next time 
    A
around
E            C#m             G#m
Subtract the former from the 
     C#m
latter
B                              
You're fatter than when you were 
         A
found

E
Genevieve lay bleeding in my 
basement

( B  A  E  C#m  G#m  C#m  B  A )
