G F G
We all came out to Montreux
F G
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
F G
To make records with a mobile
F G
We didn’t have much time

G F G
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
F G
Were at the best place around
F G
But some stupid with a flare gun
F G
Burned the place to the ground

C G# G
Smoke on the water, and fire in the sky
C G# E G A E G B-A E G A G E 2x
Smoke on the water

G F G
They burned down the gambling house
F G
It died with an awful sound
F G
A funky Claude was running in and out
F G
Pulling kids outa the ground
F G
When it all was over
F G
We had to find another place
F G
But Swiss time was running out
F G
It seemed that we would lose the race

C G# G
Smoke on the water, and fire in the sky
C G# E G A E G B-A E G A G E 2x
Smoke on the water

G F G
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
F G
It was empty cold and bare
F G
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
F G
Making our music there
F G F G
With a few red lights, a few old beds
F G
We made a place to sweat
F G
No matter what we get out of this
F G
I know, I know we’ll never forget

C G# G
Smoke on the water, and fire in the sky
C G# E G A E G B-A E G A G E 6x
Smoke on the water
