Verse 1:
             C        E/B     Am   C/G
Bell Bottom Blues, you made me cry
              F                G     F C G [Riff 1]
I don't wanna lose this feeling
            C       E/B     Am   C/G
If I could choose a place to die
           F             G
It would be in your arms
Chorus:
A                    E/G#             F#m         D  E
Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you
A                    E/G#               F#m
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back
     D    E
I'd gladly do it, because
A              Amaj7/C# A7   D                E
(I don't want to fade  away) Give me one more day, please
A              Amaj7/C# A7  D                E
(I don't want to fade  away) In your heart I wanna stay
F C G  [Riff 1]
Verse 2:
It's all wrong, but it's all right
The way that you treat me, baby   ...mmmm
Once I was strong, but I lost the fight
You won't find a better loser
[repeat chorus]
[guitar solo over verse chords]
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
Bell Bottom Blues, don't say goodbye
We're surely gonna meet again
And if we do, dontcha be surprised
If you find me with another lover   ...oh!
[repeat chorus, repeating last two lines two extra times; end cold
on G of Riff 1]
