[Verse]
   Am 
We all came out to Montreux 
               G   Am 
On the Lake Geneva shoreline 
Am 
To make records with a mobile 
G          Am 
 We didn't have much time 
Am 
Frank Zappa and the Mothers 
                 G       Am 
Were at the best place around 
Am 
But some stupid with a flare gun 
                 G       Am 
Burned the place to the ground
[Chorus]
D            Bb    Am 
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky 
D            Bb 
Smoke on the water
[Riff]

[Verse]
Am 
They burned down the gambling house 
                G      Am 
It died with an awful sound 
Am 
A funky Claude was running in and out 
G         Am 
  Pulling kids out the ground 
Am 
When it all was over 
                G        Am 
We had to find another place 
Am 
But Swiss time was running out 
                        G         Am 
It seemed that we would lose the race
[Chorus]
D            Bb    Am 
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky 
D            Bb 
Smoke on the water

[Verse]
Am 
We ended up at the Grand Hotel 
       G      Am 
It was empty, cold and bare 
Am 
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside 
G           Am 
 Making our music there 
Am 
With a few red lights, a few old beds 
          G         Am 
We made a place to sweat 
Am 
No matter what we get out of this 
      G              Am 
I know, I know we'll never forget
[Chorus]
D            Bb    Am 
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky 
D            Bb 
Smoke on the water
[Outro]
