As long as you're not among that strange breed who still haven't figured out that ...Headfuck has three solos, and you don't start shouting 'Headfuck' 'til halfway through the last one!

On which subject, how the 'kin 'ell does one play the chorus to headfuck? I've been trying to figure it out for years, and all I can make out is that there's a C# in there somewhere. And that might be wrong

MY BABY IS A HEADFUCK

THE WiLDHEARTS

Tune down 1/2 step


A
Drags me round all day just like a ball
D
On a chain or tooth pain
         E
And I confess
(slide down string)
I'm just a mess

     A
Do I have to take this shit from you every time
  D
I look your way or say 'hey!'
           E
It's about time
    D                      A
You show me yours and I'll show you mine
      A
And I hope you can keep that turd-eating grin of yours
 D
Upon your face
                                        E
When you find that you're thrown to one side
       D                          A
'Cause no-one likes a long roller-coaster ride

                 E
'Cause she's the kind of girl Who'll take your heart
    A                                D
And leave you feeling worse than you did at the start
               F#      G
'Cause she's a headfuck
   D         A
My baby is a headfuck

     A
In a bygone age engaged in a passion trip
  D
A final score was required
                     E
Just to make it worthwhile
D                      A
All the patience and a waste of time
       A
For it seems today the play did mutate
       D
Into a movie scene
                                  E
Where the aim was to get the best line
D                      A
Crashing heads for the second time

                 E
'Cause she's the kind of girl Who'll break your mind
    A                        D
And make an easy meal of the sensitive kind
               F#      G
'Cause she's a headfuck
   D         A
My baby is a headfuck

Wah!!

now that's what I call service

If this were a restaurant, and you had just provided me with some food, I would gladly tip you 10%.

But it's not. So I can't.
