Roxy Music - Virginia Plain

The song is in F# so if you want to play with the record use
Capo on 2nd
Such an easy song you can just launch into it and it always sound great.
Perfect for doing your own arrangements

E                                           B
Make me a deal, and make it straight, all signed & sealed I'll take it
E                                          B
To Robert E. Lee I'll show it, I hope & pray he don't blow it cos
A
We've been around a long time
F#                                  B
Tryin', just tryin', just tryin' to make-a the big time

Take me on a roller-coaster, take me for an airplane ride
Take me for a six-day wonder, but dont you, dont throw my pride aside
Besides, what's real and make believe
Baby Jane's in Acapulco, we are flying down to Rio

Throw me a line I'm sinking fast, clutching at straws, cant make it
A Havana sound we're tryin', a hard edged a-hipster jivin' oh
Last picture show's down the drive-in
You're so sheer, you're so chic, 
Teenage rebel of the week

Flavours of the mountain streamline, midnight blue casino floors
Dance the cha-cha thru till sunrise, opens up exclusive doors, oh wow
Just like flamingoes look the same
So me and you, just we two, got to search for something new

B repeats 3 times followed by 7 repeats of the famous riff 
(Guitar plays B E for this)

Far beyond the pale horizon someplace near the desert strand
A-where my Studebaker takes me, that's where I'll make my stand, but wait
Can' you see that Holtzer mane
NC
What's her name? Virginia Plain
