Subject: "Sweet Transvestite" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Hi,
Here are (as promised) the lyrics and chords to :
"Sweet Transvestite"
I have tried to reply to everyone who emailed me asking for "Rocky Horror
Picture Show" songs by mailing a copy of this and "Whatever Happened To
Saturday Night" to them aswell as by posting the songs to news and nevada.edu
I got the lyrics from cs.uwp.edu (though I edited them a little) and
worked the Chords out mostly by just playing my guitar like a bass along
with the CD - I hope they're correct!
The song has a fairly simple progression of Chords that you should be able
to follow pretty easily - especially if you mainly use "E-form bar Chords".
The Chorus part of the song has its Chords played sort of "12-bar blues
style" - use your little finger! Apart from that the song is pretty basic
although I might not have put the Chords into their EXACT position above the
lyrics.
The version of the song that I worked this out from was on :
"The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD
(Music from the original soundtrack of the
20th century fox presentation of the Michael
White/Lou Adler Production)
In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry
- not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!
COMING SOON : "Eddie's Teddy" & "Super Heroes" - are these wanted'!'
