The Birmingham Ho

Em
I met this girl in a Birmingham taxi
D
I got it first, but she slipped in 
before me
C
Just as I was telling her, hey this 
is mine 'ho
Am
She already told the cab driver 
where to go
G
Me I always show respect for the 
ladies
Bm                      C
I sat back and let her have it her 
way
   D
So good lord sees me through 
darkness and light
  D
I tell you what I remembered from 
that night


    Em
I'm hungry, do you fancy a little 
something to eat?
  D
I can't go on forever on Cognac and 
weed
    C
But she was already on the way down 
in the seat
Am
I tried to stop her, or maybe I 
didn't
   G
So there I was in a strange 
situation
    Bm                            
The chauffeur said I can drop you 
C
off at the station
        D
I said no man, no don't
  C
I tell you when to stop keep your 
eyes on the road


[Chorus]
          Em                       
You don't have to be gay to make a 
D                 C
friend feel good OK
              Am                   
No, you don't have to be gay to 
    G                 Bm C
make a friend feel good OK
          D
You don't have to be gay to make a 
friend feel good OK


[Verse]
Em                                D
Two hours later, she was still at it
The driver had to refill gasoline 
    C
and shit

       G                       
So whatever kind of trouble you 
                         D
might get yourself into

       G                           
Just think of me that night and 
                 D
what I went through

                 G                 
I thought it was Helen or Marie or 
                         D
whatever, giving me head

         G                       
Until I realised it was this dude 
                D
called Fred ... Hello


                           G
And that was a Birmingham Ho
              D
Hey, ho hey, ho hey
                          G
And that was a Birmingham Ho
                  D
Hey, ho hey, ho hey, ho hey

Take it away now..



Em (Her kan du strengt tatt holde 
(Em) hele veien frem til refrenget,
men vers grepene funker også greit)



Hold on a minute, that's bullshit

You told me it was a microphone

And you wanted me to sing in it

I have a lot of friends and I do 
lots of things for them

I don't think it's me, I think it's 
you that have a problem

So zip up and try to be a gentleman

I have feelings too and I don't need
 you to hurt them

So zip up and try to be a gentleman

So zip up and try to be a gentleman



[Chorus]
