The Waterboys — The Hammerhead Bar

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

The song riffs around an E E7

[Verse 1}
E
Anto took me down to Whistler's place

It was like a scene from a dream
D                         A
Tarantulas, drapes, magic mushroom cakes
       E
Sharks hanging from the beams
E
Dave Ruffian was there with a sad-eyed girl

And the son of Ringo Starr
         D
It was a night like any other, man
       A           A7               A6sus4
At the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead Bar


[Verse 2}
E
Four beer-bellied roadies from Uriah Heep

Were comparing stomach tattoos
D                         A
Two had Satan, one had Tam Paton
 E
One had a belt-shaped bruise
     E
In a spotlit corner a famous DJ

Was showing a starlet his scars
              D
Yeah it was all for one and one for all
        A           A7               A6sus4
At the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, at the Hammerhead Bar


[Verse 3}
E
Three groupies were gargling umbrella drinks

Under the eye of the Ox
    D                         A
The first said to the second about the third
          E
"She's as square as a fucking box"
     E
Viv Stanshall turned up on cue

With a pickled skull in a jar
          D
There was always something intriguing to do
        A           A7               A6sus4
At the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, at the Hammerhead Bar

[Verse 4}
    E
The local MP, a Tory grandee
    E
Sir Bufton Fairbairn-Smart
     D                           A
Who dressed like a cross between Robert The Bruce
       E
And Napoleon Bonaparte
      E
Was busy murdering Billy Joel's

"Just The Way You Are"
       D
It was business as usual, sunny boys
        A           A7               A6sus4
At the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, at the Hammerhead Bar


[Verse 5}
       E
On the stroke of midnight Whistler said
N/C
"Let us now toast the deceased!"
       D                   A
And he sank his snout in a stained-glass keg
   E
Of alcohol and yeast
    E
Nine Lithuanian dancing girls

Each sucking a fat cigar
      D
Jitterbugged along the beer-strewn top
        A           A7               A6sus4
Of the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, of the Hammerhead Bar


[Verse 6}
      E
Those days are gone, those dancing days
   E
Of bacchanal, of drink
D                    A
Whistler sleeps with mermaids
E
Groupies are extinct
     E
The famous DJ is doing time

For acts lewd and bizarre
    D
And only dust remains, boys,
        A           A7               A6sus4
Of the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, the Hammerhead Bar
                  E
Of the Hammerhead Bar
                  E
Of the Hammerhead Bar
                  E
Of the Hammerhead Bar
