Athena
The Who
(see notes at the end) Intro: Athena I had no idea how much I’d need her In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her My heart starts palpitating when I think my guess was wrong but I think I’ll get along She’s just a girl - she’s a bomb Athena all I ever want to do is please her My life has been so settled and she’s the reason Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone but I think I’ll get along She’s just girl - she’s bomb she’s bomb / / Just girl just girl just girl just girl / / Just girl just girl she’s just girl Athena my heart felt like a shattered glass in an acid bath I felt like one of those flattened ants you find on a crazy path I’d of topped myself to give her time she didn’t need to ask was I a suicidal psychopath? She’s just girl - she’s bomb she’s just girl she’s bomb Consumed there was a beautiful white horse I saw on a dream stage He had a snake the size of a sewer pipe living in his rib cage I felt like a pickled priest who was being flam-bed you were requisitioned blondie She’s just girl she’s bomb I’m happy she’s bombI’m ecstatic / / Just girl just girl just girl just girl / / Just girl just girl she’s just girl Bridge: / / / ( / / / ) x2 Look into the face of a child measure how long you smiled before the memory claimed How long would children remain? how long would children remain? Athena you picked me up by my lapels and screamed "leave her" It felt like waking up in heaven on an empty meter And now you’re stuck with a castrated leader and I hate the creep I didn’t mean that she’s a bomb I just said it she’s a bomb Forget it please she’s a bomb Athena I had no idea how much I need her My life has been so settled and she’s the reason Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone but I get along She’s just girl she’s bomb she’s just girl she’s bomb Notes: (she’s bomb...) / / / / / #/* / e--3-3-3--------------|----------------5--2--4----6---------------- B--3-3-3--------------|-2--3--3--5-----5--3--5----7------2--------- G--0-0-0--------------|-2--4--2--4-----6--2--4----6------2--------- D--0-0-0--------------|-2--5--4--6-----0--0--0----0------2--------- A---------------------|-0--0--0--0-----------------------4--------- G--3-2-3-etc----------|-------------------------------------------- * oops during recording??
