HOUSE OF TURNABOUT
As recorded by The Edgar Broughton Band
(From the 1971 Album THE EDGAR BROUGHTON BAND)
[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
BmSell me more cried the lady
BmHer wares all hanging down
I'm not a Alandlord or a tenant
In the Bmhouse of turnabout
BmMy pride is flat my body fat
BmMy part played on this floor
APay for me to play
And hang your Bmtears next to mine
[Verse 2]
BmOne with hope might move in here
BmTheir shadows still intact
To Atry to find the way we're meant
And Bmnot prepared to act
BmGeraldine was in the club
BmHis face was torn in two
Now Ahe could play with confidence
ABmgain for me and you
[Guitar Solo]
Bm
[Verse 3]
BmSell me more said the customer
BmHis heroes falling down
Is it AI that made you prisoner
In the Bmhouse of turnabout
BmShe wept I am at fault she said
BmIt's me that brought you here
Where the AMadame's at the peephole
And the Bmbed is full of fear
[Verse 4]
BmI'll not keep you in a void
BmImpossible to fill
ALook upon the guest list
And the Bmmen that helped me kill
BmThe vestiges of sanity
BmThe bloom that was my pride
And you're Anearly like a brother
As you Bmlie here at my side
[Verse 5]
BmGeraldine is beautiful
BmThe smile plays on his face
And I Aswear if it could happen
I'd be Bmthankful in his place
And I Aswear if it could happen
I'd be Bmthankful in his place
