[Verse 1]
Am
There was heat in the air
Dm
And cops everywhere you looked
Am
So there wasn't a lot
Dm G
And the breaks that you got You know you took
F C
And I remember wonderin' Where you've been
G F C
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
[Chorus]
C F
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
C G
They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio
C F
The night Spanish Eddie fell from grace
C
There was amazement on his face
G
On the night that Eddie failed
C
Sanity prevailed
[Verse 2]
Am
It was June or July
Dm
When the heat from above beat down
Am
It was famine or drought
Dm G
When the brothers went out of style uptown
F C
And we was mixin' Vicks with lemon gin
G F C
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
[Chorus]
C F
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
C G
They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio
C F
The night Spanish Eddie made front page
C
His revolution came of age
G
He wrote "Surrender" on the wall
C
The night he took the fall
[Bridge]
F Dm G
I heard someone say "He's tryin' to fly"
Am C G
Like Eddie used to say We'll do when we die
[Instrumental]

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
[Chorus]
C F
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
C G
They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio
C F
The night Spanish Eddie fell from grace
C
There was amazement on his face
G
On the night that Eddie failed
C
Sanity prevailed
[Outro]
C F
The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
C G
They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in

They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio

The night Spanish Eddie cashed it in
C G
They were playin' "Desolation Row" On the radio
