------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fair Exchange - Be Bop Deluxe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: axe victim Email: Leave a message on my ‘Ultimate Guitar’ profile or comment here and I’ll get back to you. It's about time I did a tidy and more accurate tab for this old favourite from the Sunburst Finish album. As usual, I have plundered both the live and studio versions for this tab. The guitar solo is from the studio version. I think all the info you need is there.

proud it's a perfect disguise, So much to give, so much to gain Just give me your money and I'll give you my pain It's a fair exchange ( fair exchange ) Now Tia Maria, she leans on the wall Looks in the mirror and pukes on the floor Tries to remember the cause of it all... He just gave her a drink and she gave him a ball It's a fair exchange ( fair exchange ) But I expect you expect a lot from me I can feel your burning need Your greedy, seedy fantasies are guaranteed To make my young heart bleed For you and your pubescent blues Yes, you and your dancing shoes You and your sad glad news About your boyfriend Stan, He's a dirty flirty man And he'll get you if he can Oh, look out! Here I stand in a daze, axe in my hand Another fool on the stage with a travelling band There's a space in my heart, a permanent flame Just give me your body and I'll give you my brain It's a fair exchange ( fair exchange ) Now Venus De Milo, a statue of note She lays in the gutter with a knife at her throat Naked as sin, no not even a coat She gave you a thrill so you gave her a grope It's a fair exchange ( fair exchange ) Still I expect you expect a lot from me I know you all... The show goes on despite the wrong The strong still rise and the weak still fall This song is up to you, All along, You never knew This song is coming on through To take you for a ride It's tested, true and tried Even though it almost lied... Words & music by Bill Nelson.
