Key:
D A G D A G [Verse]
D G A Cannons roared in the valley they thundered
A (Bm) D While the guns lit up the night
D G A Then it rained and both sides wondered
A (Bm) D Who is wrong and who is right
D G A On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow
A (Bm) D Bloody hands and broken back
D G A When they fire see him pirouette solo
A (Bm) D Jump in time to the rat a tat [Chorus]
D A G What a night though it's one of seven
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head [Interlude]
D A G D A G [Verse]
D G A By the wall in a silouette standing
A (Bm) D Through a flash of sudden light
D G A Cigarette from his mouth just hanging
A (Bm) D Paper square to his heart pinned tight [Interlude]
D A G D A G
Continues after the ad
[Verse] Oooh..
D G A Gather round reluctant marksmen
A (Bm) D One of them to take his life
D G A With a smile he gives them pardon
A (Bm) D Leaves the dark and takes the light [Chorus]
D A G What a night though it's one of seven
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head (To fill your head) [Interlude]
D A G D A G [Verse]
D G A They dispatch their precious cargo
A (Bm) D And knock him back right off his feet
D G A And they pray may no one follow
A (Bm) D Better still to face the beast
D G A When the field has become a garden
A (Bm) D And the wall has stood the test
D G A Children play and the dogs run barking
A (Bm) D Who would think or who would guess [Chorus]
D A G What a night though it's one of seven (les morts dansant)
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head (TO fill your head) [Interlude]
D A G D A G [Chorus]
D A G What a night though it's one of seven (les morts dansant)
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head (TO fill your head)
D A G What a night though it's one of seven(les morts dansant)
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head Ooh what a night..
D A G What a night though it's one of seven(les morts dansant)
D A G What a night for the dancing dead
D A G What a night to be called to heaven
D A G What a picture to fill your head [Other]
D A G Oh Oh...
D A G Finish on a D
