Chorus 1:
From here to Salvador
The ladies dance
To fill us reckless sons
With the passions of the heart
Bass:
Verse 1:
(Played choppy and often mute strings, by lifting fingers off the fretboard, in-between strumming.)
I've been around this town for so long
She's been dancing since the first day
I've been all around but
I love comin' back to see Lucy
Verse 2:
She swings me over to pull me out
Twirls around and I fall about
In giggles and laughter
Oh! I'm plastered
Can't damn help it, I'm sorry love
Verse 3:
What's to falling feeling feet?
For bouncing a-round-a these streets
They're lonely, like you and you for me
To ask for a dance or two
Bridge:
With a heart of gold
And a face so pale
With a second-hand dress
And the lips of a temptress
Verse 4:
Barstool banshee, howled out at me
The kings and queens of the clubs, evolved from pubs
And too much broken heart love
And singin' up the blues in a locked boxed bedroom
Pre-chorus:
A-wop-bop-A-loo-bops, A-wop-bamboo
Are ya gonna take the chance
Why do ya care, know or play fair
-ass -ass
And neither do the lords of the dance
Guitar riff:
(Played over pre-chorus)
(G\) (G-Bass) (F#-Bass)
Chorus 2:
From here to Salvador
The ladies dance
To fill us reckless sons
With the passions of the heart
Bass:
(Oooh) Bah-bah
Middle:
(Hoo, hah)
Bass:
(Hoo, hah) x6
(No Bass)
(Hoo, hah)
Verse 5:
Well it's a bang-bang, Anglo Saxons at the disco
A-tisch-oo! All fall down
Hound dogs growl on the prowl
For the next young gal
Who told her daddy "I'm goin' 'round Gemma's to...
Verse 6:
...learn and study.
I'm young, so free and I'm kinda sexy
When I'm on the floor all the boys they feel me
-ass -ass
And old dear diary's never been a friend of mine
Guitar riff:
(Played over Verse 6)
(((-ass)
Chorus 3:
