DREAMY LADY - C

C Em Am C

C Em Am G D/F*


O dreamy lady
Won't you come
To my bed

Night is the right time
To get acquainted
With my head

In my bed

Star light is shinning
Silver baby hold me tight

Moon beams are twining
In the portals of my sight

You're so right
Na, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Will you still love me

Na, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Will you still love me

O dreamy lady
Won't you come
To my bed

Night is the right time
To get acquainted
With my head

In my bed

Na, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Will you still love me

Na, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Will you still love me

Oh dreamy lady


FOXY BOY - C

C – F – C – G – C – F – Am (F – G)

Girl won't you move close to me
Take me in your arms and groove me
Girl don't you ever miss a date
With your Foxy Boy


Girl won't you move close to me
Take me in your arms and groove me
Girl don't you ever miss a date
With your Foxy Boy


Am – Em – Am – Em – G
The nights are long
And my love grows strong
As I work all day
I dream a song

With words of love
You captured my soul
As we reached to hold
My heart you stole

CHORUS x2


With each dawn men are history born
A summer romance, a winter storm
My disco love that was destined to be
You kissed me hard, by a soulless sea

CHORUS x3

OVER THE FLATS - C

C – Am – F – G
I was dragged here from my old place
Turned from my old gang
Given a new face
My old man loved it
He had his garden
He had his papadoms
But my reputations gone

CHORUS
Flats, over the flats over the flats over the flats

I miss my friend called pete
He always looked so neat
He had those dancin feet
How will we ever meet

CHORUS

The chicks I used to know
Will never see me grow
Will never grasp my hand
When I’m a fighting man

CHORUS

Here no-one knows my name
People all look the same
I walk unnoted steps
They don't know my rep

CHORUS

Well I was born to move
With fire in my shoes
I’m an unnoticed boy
Just future’s toy

CHORUS x2

I’m just gone


RIDE A WHITE SWAN - E


E – A – E - B

Ride it on out like a bird in the sky ways
Ride it on out like you were a bird
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it on out like you were a bird

Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, babe can't go wrong

Catch a bright star and a place it on your fore-head
Say a few spells and baby, there you go
Take a black cat and sit it on your shoulder
And in the morning you'll know all you know, oh

{LEAD}


Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, baby can't go wrong

Da-da-da-di-di-da, da-da-da-di-di-da ....



20th CENTURY BABY - F

The highlight of my life was meeting you

That windy autumn day at Malibu

Your diamond eyes that shine

The rubies of your mind

Love comes but once to men, the wise men say
I knew that must be true, that L.A. day
Your face was heaven sent
My mind red hot to rent
Girl, be my Twentieth Century Baby

Doo-doo-doo-do-

Your face was heaven sent
My mind red hot to rent

The highlight of my life was meeting you
That windy autumn day at Malibu
Your diamond eyes that shine
The rubies of your mind
Girl, be my Twentieth Century Baby

Your diamond eyes that shine
The rubies of your mind
Girl, be my Twentieth Century Baby

Christmas
Everybody's gotta do the Christmas Bop, yeah

Hey baby lend me your ear
Christmas time is drawing near
Get out your silk jeans
And your space shoes
I've got some sweet, wild, devastating news

CHORUS
Chrsitmas, here come the fun
Christmas, we're gonna have some fun
Christmas, gonna dance till we drop
Everybody's gotta do the Christmas Bop

Yeah Christmas, summer's gone and snow's fallen down
I'm gonna miss that golden, surfing sound
But cold is bold and there's nothing wrong
With dressing sweet while I'm singing my song

CHORUS
