I Can Only Give You Everything  Them

Heretical as it may seem, I wouldn't trade this demented punker (from
_Them Again_) for all of _Astral Weeks_. Covered by countless garage
bands (including the fledgling MC5 - beat *that* for punk credentials)
although the version I heard most often as a beat-crazed teen was by
the Bram Rigg Set. Killer fuzz guitar riff so simple anyone can play
it - which of course was the entire idea. -- AWR

[ Tab from: bttp://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tbem/i_can_only_give_you_everytbing_crd.btml ]

I can't give you more than what I've got
You can't expect to get what I have not

C D [N.C.]
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you e[G]veryth[C]ing[F] [G] [C] [F]
Verse 2 (organ enters):
Why can't I get you to understand
'Cause after all I am just a man
You... are on my mind when stars appear and shadows fall
And... when every little flower blooms and bluebirds call
I try and I try
But baby, you know that I
Can only give you everything

I'll do anything you want me to do
'Cause I don't want to know this life without you
Oh... don't ever go and leave me in this world alone
I'd... be like a little child if I was on my own
I [Db]try and I [Eb]try
Db Eb [N.C.]

Can only give you e[Ab]veryt[Db]hing[Gb] [Ab] [Db] [Gb]
Coda:
(rant over Ab Db Gb chord progression):
Everything, baby
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
Everything, oh...
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
