Cavaliers Guitar Chords Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel

[Intro]
Cm Bb Ab Fm D# x2

 

[Verse 1]
Cm Bb Ab
Make mine old time or I’ll spit in your eye
Fm D#
It’s better than lying, anytime
Cm Bb
I’m horrified to step outside
Ab Fm D#
Trying very hard to keep up my guard
Cm Bb
Everything’s becoming Drag
Ab Fm D#
We’d best get off, escape the bad, could be very sad
Cm Bb
Misery coming over me
Ab Fm D#
I’m thinking about going blind and don’t want to see

 

[Break]
Cm Bb Ab Fm D#

 

[Verse 2]
Cm Bb
Shift around this one song town
Ab Fm D#
Like a sparrow with a broken wing, feeling blue
Cm Bb
Terrified to step outside
Ab Fm D#
It’s so easy to make a suicide come true
Cm Bb
Masturbation, getting off
Ab Fm D#
You can scoff, your ideals offer nothing new
Cm Bb
I’m getting ready to run and hide
Ab Fm D#
Looking for a suitable bitch to crucify

 

[Chorus]
D# Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify
Ab Bb
It’s getting fierce
Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify
Ab Bb
To be Cavaliers
Cm Bb Ab
Oh, woah-woah, woah-woah-woah
Fm D#
How do you feel now you’ve testified?

 

[Break]
Cm Bb Ab Fm D#

 

[Verse 3]
Cm Bb
Love to have God next to me
Ab Fm D#
With his hands around my throat in harmony
Cm Bb
Take away the silver tray
Ab Fm D#
Fetch me water, God, give me strength, I’m in pain
Cm Bb
Seeing, blow-job blues and boogaloos and
Ab Fm D#
Ten little niggers hooked on absinthe and daffodils
Cm Bb
Telling tales of white gardenia
Ab Fm D#
Honky-tonking all the love that’s in you

 

[Break]
Cm Bb Ab Fm D# x5

 

[Chorus]
D# Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify
Ab Bb
It’s getting fierce
Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify

To Cavaliers

Oh, woah-oh, ooh-ooh
Ab Fm D#
How does it feel now you’ve testified?

 

[Break]
Cm Bb Ab Fm D#

 

[Verse 4]
Cm Bb
Long-tailed coat, a silly joke
Ab Fm D#
They drink like men then see them choke on Coca-Cola
Cm Bb
Morgue-like lips and waitress tips
Ab Fm D#
And you shuffle around on your Sabrina hips
Cm Bb Ab
Oh, make mine old time or I’ll spit in your eye
Fm D#
It’s better than lying, anytime
Cm Bb
I’m horrified to step outside
Ab Fm D#
Trying very hard to keep up my guard

 

[Chorus]
D# Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify
Ab Bb
It’s getting fierce
Fm Gm
We’re all beginning to testify, testify
Ab Bb
To be Cavaliers
Cm Bb
Oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh
Ab Fm D#
How does it feel now you’ve testified?
