We all came down to Montreux
F
G
on the Lake Geneva shoreline
G
To make records with the mobile
F
G
We didn’t have much time
G
Frank Zappa and the mothers
F
G
were at the best place around
G
But some stupid with a flare-gun
F
G
burned the place to the ground
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
G
a fire in the sky
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
G
They burned down the gambling house
F
G
it died with an awful sound
G
A funky claude was running in and out
F
G
pulling kids out the ground
G
When it all was over
F
G
we had to find another place
G
But Swiss time was running out
F
G
it seemed that we would lose the race
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
G
a fire in the sky
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
G
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
F
G
it was empty cold and bare
G
But with the rolling truck stones thing outside
F
G
making our music there
G
With a few red lights and a few old beds
F
G
we made a place to sweat
G
No matter what we get out of this
F
G
I know well never forget
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
G
a fire in the sky
C
Ab
Smoke on the water
