Rock Minuet chords and lyrics - LOU REED

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Paralyzed by [D]hatred and a piss
ugly soul
If he murdered his father,
he thought he'd become whole
While listening at night
to an old radio

[Interlude 1]
Where they danced to the rock minuet
[D]

[Verse 2]
In the gay bars [D]in the back
of the bar
He consummated hatred on a cold
sawdust floor
While the jukebox played
backbeats, he sniffed coke off a jar

[Verse 3]
While they danced to a rock minuet
[D]
School was [C]a waste,
[D]he was meant for the street
But school was the only way,
the army could be beat
The two whores sucked his nipples 'til
he came on their feet
As they danced to the
rock minuet

[Verse 4]
[D]He dreamt that his father was
sunk to his knees
His leather belt tied so tight
that it was hard to breathe
And the studs from his jacket were as
cold as a breeze

[Verse 5]
As he danced to a rock minuet
[D]He pictured the bedroom
where he heard the first cry
His mother on all fours, ah,
with his father behind
And her yell hurt so much,
he had wished he'd gone blind

[Interlude 2]
And rocked to a rock minuet
[D][Bb][D][Dm]
[Bb][D]
[Dm][D][Dm][D][Bb][D]

[Verse 6]
In the back of the warehouse were a [D]couple of guys
They had tied someone up
and sewn up their eyes
And he got so excited
he came on his thighs
When they danced to the rock
minuet

[Verse 7]
[D]On avenue be, someone cruised
him one night
He took him in an alley and
then pulled a knife
And thought of his father,
as he cut his windpipe

[Verse 8]
And finally danced to the rock minuet
[D]
In the curse of the alley,
the thrill of the street
On the bitter cold docks
where the outlaws all meet
In euphoria drug in euphoria heat
You could dance to the rock minuet

[Verse 9]
In the [D]thrill of the needle
and anonymous sex
You could dance to the rock minuet

[Verse 10]
So when [D]you dance hard,
slow dancing
When you dance hard,
[D]slow [D]dancing
When you dance hard,
[D]slow [D]dancing
When you dance to the rock minuet
