Rose Tint My World - from the Rocky Horror Picture Show
------------------
Words and music by Richard O'Brien, around 1973.
C majorC
(COLUMBIA) It was great when it all began
FF C majorC
I was a regular Frankie fan
C majorC
But it was over when he had the plan
D MajorD G+G
to start working on a muscle-man
C majorC
Now the only thing that gives me hope
FF C majorC
is my love of a certain dope
Rose tints my world keeps me
G+G FF C majorC
safe from my trouble and pain.
C majorC
(ROCKY) I'm just seven hours old.
FF C majorC
Truly beautiful to behold.
And somebody should be told
D MajorD G+G
my libido hasn't been controlled.
C majorC
Now the only thing I've come to trust
FF C majorC
is an orgasmic rush of lust
Rose tints my world keeps me
G+G FF C majorC
safe from my trouble and pain.
FF F minorFm
(BRAD) It's beyond me. Help me, mommy.
C majorC
I'll be good, you'll see. Take this dream away.
FF F minorFm
What's this, let's see, I feel sexy.
C majorC G+G
What's come over me. Whoa-- here it comes again.
FF F minorFm
(JANET) Oh I--I feel released, bad times deceased
C majorC
My confidence has increased. Reality is here.
FF F minorFm
The game has been disbanded. My mind has been expanded
C majorC G+G
It's a gas that Frankie's landed. His lust is so sincere.

Don't Dream It - from the Rocky Horror Picture Show
--------------
Words and music by Richard O'Brien, around 1973.
N.C.
(FRANK) Whatever happened to Fay Wray?
That delicate satin-draped frame.
FF G+G
As it clung to her thigh
C majorC A minorAm
How I started to cry
FF G+G
'Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same.
FF F minorFm C majorC C7C7
Give yourself over to absolute pleasure
FF F minorFm C majorC C7C7
Swim the warm waters of sins of the flesh
FF F minorFm C majorC C7C7
Erotic nightmares beyond any measure
FF F minorFm C majorC G+G
And sensual daydreams to treasure forever--
G7G7
Can't you just see it--oh oh ho.
C majorC A minorAm FF G+G
Don't dream it. Be it.
C majorC A minorAm FF G+G
Don't dream it. Be it.
(Repeated umptean times, the others join in and Dr. Scott
gives his speech:)
(SCOTT) We've got to get out of this trap
Before this decadence saps our wills.
I've got to be strong and try to hang on.
Or else my mind may well snap
Und my life will be lived for the thrill.
FF F minorFm
(BRAD) It's beyond me. Help me, Mommy.
C majorC G+G
(JANET) God bless Lili St. Cyr.
