Subject: "Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night" - Rocky Horror Picture Show

Hi,

Here are (as promised) the lyrics and chords to :

	"Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night"/"Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)"

I got the lyrics from cs.uwp.edu (though I edited them a little) and
worked the chords out mostly by just playing my guitar like a bass along
with the CD - I hope they're correct! The sax solo part is good to muck
around with - just play something in C# and then later in D over the
top of the last 8 "Hot Patootie"s.

The version of the song that I worked this out from was on :

	"The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD
	(Music from the original soundtrack of the
	20th century fox presentation of the Michael
	White/Lou Adler Production)

In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry
- not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!

COMING SOON : "Sweet Transvestite"

WHATEVER HAPPENNED TO SATURDAY NIGHT / HOT PATOOTIE (BLESS MY SOUL)

( Eddie )

( Intro : C#                   A# )
(         C#                   A# )

C#                   A#
Whatever happened to Saturday night,
C#                                A#
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright?
F#                           G#
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
F#                   G#
Came into my life, I thought I was divine.

C#                             A#
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go,
C#                             A#
And listen to the music on the radio;
F#                           G#
A saxophone was playing in a rock 'n roll show.
F#                            G#
You climbed in the back seat, you really had a good time.

C#            D#             F#                 C#
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
C#            D#             F#                 C#
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
C#            D#             F#                 C#
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
C#            D#             F#                 C#

(            C#            D#             F#                 C# )

( Middle break : F# C#   F# C# )

C#                            A#
My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled.
C#                                A#
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt.
F#                               G#
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
F#                                  G#
And she'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine.

C#                     A#
Get back in front, put some hair oil on
C#                          A#
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
F#                                           G#
With your arms around your girl you'd try to sing along.
F#                       G#
It felt pretty good. Woo You really had a good time.

C#            D#             F#                 C#
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
C#            D#             F#                 C#
