Baron Samedi Lyrics
by 10cc
a good 1st position Bdim chord is: (XX3434)
(notes implied between chords: g e c a Bdim slides 3-6-9-12fret )
I'll show you man who walk on fire And don't get burned
Don't get burned, don't get burned He don't get burned
I'll show you man who tread on glass And he don't get cut
Don't get cut, don't get cut He don't get cut
You can take a knife and slit his throat And he won't drop dead
Won't drop dead, won't drop dead He won't drop dead
Been a ju-ju boy for a thousand years And he ain't cut yet
Ain't cut yet, ain't cut yet He ain't cut yet
Hold em
You've got to crease em and fold em
You've got to shape em and mould em
Take a piece of their soul man
Well he can take a little moonlight
Suck the poison from a snakebite
Movin round about midnight
He's got the power of life
See the sacrifice of the virgin women
See the deadly snake and the headless chicken
Take a sip from dripping red
Make it with the living dead ...................
Take you up when you feeling down
When you're sick he will come around
Takes his cures from out the ground
He's the one who can hypnotize
And you'll never believe your eyes
He can cause the dead to rise
(play solo sequence x3 ..........)
(slide up on Bdim 3-6-9-12fret(x3) - end on Am)
