I take no credit, but there needs to be an accurate Molly's Chambers on
this website that's easily accessible. See tab credit below. I took this
from the 5 star full album tab of Youth and Young Manhood. I've seen it
played with B A and D power chords as opposed to barre chords, and I think
either way sounds good. The distinctive riff of this song comes from
removing your index finger from the F# barre and placing it back on and off
again to the proper rhythm. Play it hard!!

[Intro] [SEE LEAD TAB FOR INTRO RIFF](further down)
[Verse 1]------>[PLAY INTRO RIFF ALL WAY THROUGH]
F#
Free, that's all that she could be, that's why she'll never stay,
White, barenaked in the night, and lookin' for some play
Just another girl, that wants to rule the world, any time or place
And when, she gets into your head, you know she's there to stay.
[Chorus]
B A
You want it, Well she's got it,
F#
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind,
B D
She's got your, your pistol,
F#
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind,
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind.
[Verse 2]------>[PLAY INTRO RIFF ALL WAY THROUGH]
F#
Slow, she's burnin' in your soul, with whispers in your ear,
It's okay, I'll give it anyway, just get me out of here,
You'll plead, you'll get down on your knees, for just another taste,
And when, you think she's let you in, that's when she fades away.
[Chorus]
B A
You want it, Well she's got it,
F#
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind,
B D
She's got your, your pistol,
F#
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind,
Molly's Chambers gonna change your mind.

You want it, Well she's got it,
