    [Verse 1]
    Gm
    We all came out to Montreux
    F                                       Gm
    On the Lake Geneva shoreline
    Gm
    To make records with a mobile
    F                                 Gm
    We didn\’t have much time
    Gm
    Frank Zappa and the Mothers
    F                                 Gm
    Were at the best place around
    Gm
    But some stupid with a flare gun
    F                                                 Gm
    Burned the place to the ground

    [Chorus]
    C                 Ab                                 Gm
    Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
    C                                 Ab
    Smoke on the water

    [Verse 2]
    Gm
    They burned down the gambling house
    F                                 Gm
    It died with an awful sound
    Gm
    A funky Claude was running in and out
    F                                 Gm
    Pulling kids out the ground
    Gm
    When it all was over
    F                                                 Gm
    We had to find another place
    Gm
    But Swiss time was running out
    F                                                 Gm
    It seemed that we would lose the race

    [Chorus]
    C                 Ab                                 Gm

    Smoke on the water

    [Verse]
    Gm
    We ended up at the Grand Hotel
    F                                 Gm
    It was empty, cold and bare
    Gm
    But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
    F                                 Gm
    Making our music there
    Gm
    With a few red lights, a few old beds
    F                                 Gm
    We made a place to sweat
    Gm
    No matter what we get out of this
    F                                                 Gm
    I know, I know we\’ll never forget

    [Chorus]
    C                 Ab                                 Gm
    Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
    C                                 Ab
    Smoke on the water

    [Outro]
    |Gm Bb C Gm | Bb Db C |Gm Bb C Bb | Gm | (x4)
