Intro: Main Riff x4

/ G - - - / - - - - /

We all came out to Montreux on the

/ - - F - / G - - - /

Lake Geneva shoreline

/ G - - - / - - - - /

To make records with a mobile

/ - - F - / G - - - /

We didn't have much time

/ G - - - / - - - - /

Frank Zappa and the Mothers

/ - - F - / G - - - /

Were at the best place around

/ G - - - / - - - - /

But some stupid with a flare gun

/ - - F - / G - - - /

Burned the place to the ground

Chorus:

/ C - - - / Ab - - - / G - - - / - - - - /

Smoke on the water, and fire in the sky

/ C - - - / Ab - - - /

Smoke on the water

Riff x2

/ G - - - / - - - - /

They burned down the gambling house

/ - - F - / G - - - /

It died with an awful sound

/ G - - - / - - - - /

The funky Claude was running in and out

/ - - F - / G - - - /

Pulling kids outa the ground

/ G - - - / - - - - /

When it all was over

/ - - F - / G - - - /

We had to find another place

/ G - - - / - - - - /

But Swiss time was running out

/ - - F - / G - - - /

It seemed that we would lose the race

Chorus

Riff x2

/ G - - - / - - - - /

We ended up at the grand hotel

/ - - F - / G - - - /

It was empty cold and bare

/ G - - - / - - - - /

But with the rolling truck stones thing just outside

/ - - F - / G - - - /

Making our music there

/ G - - - / - - - - /

With a few red lights and a few old beds

/ - - F - / G - - - /

We make a place to sweat

/ G - - - / - - - - /

No matter what we get out of this

/ - - F - / G - - - /

I know we'll never forget

Chorus
