Biography:
Starlight Mints are a group of beautiful pop mutants: four oddballs whose love for archetypal pop music and AM radio has provided a rock-solid foundation for a whole bunch of inspired weirdness. Allan Vest (vocals/guitar), Marian Love Nunez (keyboards), Javier Gonzales (bass), and Andy Nunez (drums) began jamming together in the '90s, giving birth to their own funky brand of heavily instrumental, surrealistically worded pop sound. Maybe you could call it bubblegum psych.

BLACK CHAMPAGNE - Starlight Mints
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Screenaged
Tuning: Standard
There are lots of little riffs and fills in this song which you should
be able to work out if there are two of you playing!
Below are the basic chords, plus tabs for the outro solo.
C - G - G7 - F
C G G7 F
Queen of the rebel spark, child of the silver flame
C G F
Why did you leave this mark on your reign
C G G7 F
Playing in a field of fire, dowsed by another's fame
C G F
But with a simple smile you shouted out a phrase
F C G
And the gallows sway till the night is through
F C G
And my thoughts are strange as I leave with you
F C
Am I,
G
Am I losing my mind
F
Reverse libido
C G
That you're not gonna find
F C
Me and you
G G7
Drinking black champagne under the yellow moon
C - G - G7 - F
C G
Keys on the chair, do you want me to
G7 F
Chair's on the bed, do you want me to
C G G7 - F
Give up, decide now
C G
Bells never ring for your majesty
G7 F
Seems you'll be wearing one of these so
C G G7 - F
Chin up, decide now
F C G
Well the gallows sway when the king comes through
F C G
With his muscles grazing everything you do
F C
Am I,
G
Am I losing my mind
F
Reverse libido
C G
That you're not gonna find
F C
Me and you
G G7
Drinking black champagne under the yellow moon
