GENO by Dexys Midnight Runners
BASS IN INTRO:
A---------8---------------------| E-----9-9---9-----7---6-7-6-7---|
INTRO CHORDS: C# B (x4)
[C#]Back in sixty, the [B]weight of his work at de [C#]club (oh Ge[B]no)
Before Jimmy's machine and the rocksteady rub (oh Geno)
On a [B]night when flowers didn't [F#m]suit my tune,
After a week of flunking and bunking school,
Geno is heading the crowd that night
Just practising steps and keeping out of the fights.
[A]Academic [E]inspiration, [B]you gave me [F#]none,
You were Michael the lover, the fighter that won,
But now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you,
No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do.
C# (drumroll)
REPEAT INTRO x2 (C# B)
[C#]That man took the [B]stage, his towel swinging [C#]high (oh Ge[B]no)
This man was my bombers, my dexys, my highs (oh Geno)
Oh, the [B]crowd they all hailed you, and [F#m]chanted your name,
But they never knew, like we knew, me and you were the same,
And now you're all over, your sound is so tame,
Brrrrrri, you fed me and plainly I'll remember your name,
[A]Academic [E]inspiration, [B]you gave me [F#]none,
You were Michael the lover, the fighter that won,
But now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you,
No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do.
