Ballad Of Mott by Mott The Hoople
Ballad Of Mott
Intro: G C
G C
Verse:
G G7
I changed my name in search of fame
C G
To find the Midas touch
Bm G G7
Oh I wish I hadn't wanted then
C
What I want now twice as much
G G7
We crossed the mighty oceans
C G
And we had a few divides
Bm G G7
But we never crossed emotion
C G
For we felt too much inside
Chorus:
D C
You know all the tales we tell
Bm G
You know the band so well
G7 C D G C G
But still I feel somehow, we've let you down
D C
We went off somewhere on the way
Bm G G7
And now I see we have to pay
C D C Bm Am G C
The rock 'n' roll circus is in town
G C
Verse:
And Buffin lost his child-like dreams
And Mick lost his guitar
And Verden grew a line or two
And Overends' just a rock 'n' roll star
Behind these shades
The vision fades
As I learn a thing or two
And if I had my time again
You all know just what I'd do
Chorus:
D C
Rock 'n' rolls' a losers loser's game
Bm G G7
It mesmerises and I can't explain
C D G C G
The reasons for the sights and for the sounds
D C
We went off somewhere on the way
Bm G G7
And now I see we have to pay
C D C Bm Am G C
The rock 'n' roll circus is in town
G C
Guitar solo:
G G7 C G Bm G G7 C G
G G7 C G Bm G G7 C G
Chorus:
D C
So, Rock 'n' rolls' a losers loser's game
Bm G G7
It mesmerises and I can't explain
C D G C G
The reasons for the sights and for the sounds
D C
The greasepaint still sticks to my face
Bm G G7
So what the hell, I can't erase
C D C Bm Am G C
The rock and roll feeling from my mind
C Bm Am G until the end
From my mind
From my mind
From my mind
From my mind
From my mind
From my mind
From my mind
