My attempt at the chords to Boys in the Band by The Libertines

You're walking like you never seen the light

You're walking like it every night

But I've never seen you dance,

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

E|3----------------8-----|
B|--4----------------9---|
G|----5----------------9-|
D|-----------------------|
A|-----------------------|
E|-----------------------|

PRECHORUS

but tell me baby how does it feel

I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel

CHORUS

And they all get them out for

The boys in the band

They twist and they shout for

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

E|3----------------8-----|
B|--4----------------9---|
G|----5----------------9-|
D|-----------------------|
A|-----------------------|
E|-----------------------|

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

The boys in the band

They twist and they shout for

For the boys in the band

PRECHORUS

but tell me baby how does it feel

I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel

CHORUS

And they all get them out for
