Intro 1
(E major)
Verse 1
This is a (E major) (Edim) (E major)
(C major) (E major) Bangkok,
(A minor) oriental setting
and the city don't know
what the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world
in a show with everything
But you'll grin (D minor) ner (A minor) (D minor) (A minor) (D minor)
(A minor) Time flies, doesn't seem a minute
since the Tyrolean Spa
had the chess boys in it
All change, don't you know
that when you play at this (E major) level
there's no (F major) ordinary (A minor) ven ue? (D minor)
(A minor) It's Iceland, (D minor) or the Philippines,
(A minor) or Hastings, or (D minor) , or this place! (G sharpdim) (E major)
(A minor) When I am (F major) bankrupt
and the (C major) world's (G major) your oyster (A minor)
The bars are (D minor) temples
but their (E major) balls ain't (A minor) free (D minor)
You'll (A minor) find a god (F major) in every
(C major) golden (G major) oyster (A minor)
And if you're (D minor) lucky then
the (E major) gods are (D minor) cheap
I can feel (E major) an (D minor) an gel sliding up to (A minor) me
One town's fairy like another
When your head's down over your pieces,
brother
It's a drag, it's a bore
It's really such a pity
To be looking at the ball
Not looking at the city
What (D minor) do you mean? (A minor)
You've seen one crowded, polluted,
(D minor) New -thinking town
(A minor) Don't a man, I'm swarming sweet
Sweet Somerset up
Make the Somerset more sweet
Get tied, you're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's (E major) among the purest (A minor) (D minor)
I (A minor) get my kicks above the waistline
One (D minor) night (G sharpdim) (E major)
(A minor) in (F major) Bangkok
makes a (C major) hard (G major) man humble (A minor)
Not much between (D minor) despair and ecstasy
One (A minor) night in (F major) Bangkok
can the (C major) tough (G major) guys (A minor) crumble
Can't be too care (D minor) ful
with your (A minor) company
(D minor) I can feel the devil walking
next to (A minor) me (E major) (A minor) (E major)
(A minor)
I am going to be the witness
to the ultimate test of cerebral fitness.
This grips me more
than would a muddy old river
or a reclining Buddha.
But (D minor) thank (A minor) God
I'm only watching (D minor) the game, (A minor)
controlling it (D minor)
I (A minor) don't see you guys
rating the kind of mate
I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use
would not excite you
(D minor) So (A minor) you better go back to your bars,
your temples,
(D minor) your massage parlours
(G sharpdim) (A minor) One night in (F major) Bangkok
and the (C major) world's (G major) your oyster (A minor)
The bars are (D minor) temples
but their pearls ain't free
You'll (A minor) find a God (F major) in
every golden (C major) (G major) cluster (A minor)
A little spe (D minor) cial, little (E major) history
(A minor) I (D minor) can feel an angel
sliding up to (A minor) me
One night in (F major) Bangkok
makes a (C major) hard (G major) man fumble
(A minor) Not much between (D minor) despair and (A minor) ecstasy
(D minor) One (A minor) night in (F major) Bangkok
and the (C major) tough (G major) guys tumble (A minor)
Can't be too careful (D minor) with your (A minor) company
(D minor) I can feel the devil
walking next to (A minor) me (A minor)
