The Hammerhead Bar chords

[VERSE 1]
[E]Anto took me down to Whistler's place

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

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

[VERSE 2]
[E]Four beer-bellied roadies from Uriah Heep

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

Was showing a starlet his scars
Yeah it was al[D]l for one and one for all
At the H[A]ammerhead, t[A7]he Hammerhead, at[A6sus4] the Hammerhead Bar

[VERSE 3]
[E]Three groupies were gargling umbrella drinks

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

With a pickled skull in a jar
There was [D]always something intriguing to do
At the H[A]ammerhead, t[A7]he Hammerhead, at[A6sus4] the Hammerhead Bar

[VERSE 4]
The [E]local MP, a Tory grandee
Sir [E]Bufton Fairbairn-Smart
Who d[D]ressed like a cross between [A]Robert The Bruce
And Nap[E]oleon Bonaparte
Was bu[E]sy murdering Billy Joel's

"Just The Way You Are"
It was [D]business as usual, sunny boys
At the H[A]ammerhead, t[A7]he Hammerhead, at[A6sus4] the Hammerhead Bar

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

Each sucking a fat cigar
Jitter[D]bugged along the beer-strewn top
Of the H[A]ammerhead, t[A7]he Hammerhead, of[A6sus4] the Hammerhead Bar

[VERSE 6]
Those [E]days are gone, those dancing days
Of [E]bacchanal, of drink
[D]Whistler sleeps with [A]mermaids
[E]Groupies are extinct
The f[E]amous DJ is doing time

For acts lewd and bizarre
And [D]only dust remains, boys,
Of the H[A]ammerhead, t[A7]he Hammerhead, th[A6sus4]e Hammerhead Bar
Of the Hammerhead [E]Bar
Of the Hammerhead [E]Bar
Of the Hammerhead [E]Bar
