My attempt at the chords to Boys in the Band by The Libertines
F
You're walking like you never seen the light
F
You're walking like it every night
A#m
But I've never seen you dance,
C
and I've never heard you sing
Am Dm (Change the root note for each syllable of Single Thing: D, C#, C)
So how can it mean a single thing
G C
, (single strum)
It's all so rudimentary
VERSE
You're talking like your handy in a fight
You talking like it every night
But I've never seen those flowers,
in the barrel of a gun
All I've ever seen you do is run
It's all so rudimentary

PRECHORUS
F A
but tell me baby how does it feel
Dm A# Am
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
CHORUS
F Am
And they all get them out for
A# C
The boys in the band
F Am
They twist and they shout for
A# C
For the boys in the band
VERSE
You're walking like you never seen the light
You're walking like it every night
But then I stop to think,
I ask my self why
One of those things that darling you must try
It's all so rudimentary

Now I'm jealous, I'm jealous of my own

I've no homestead but through these hearts I will roam, yeah
CHORUS

And they all get them out for

They twist and they shout for

For the boys in the band

but tell me baby how does it feel
Dm A# Am
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
CHORUS
And they all get them out for
(they all get them out)
The boys in the band
(only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for
(twist and scream and shout)
For the boys in the band
(only for the boys in the band)
