Jam (The)-That's Entertainment - sr - 0

[Intro - Capo 3 but don't for live]
G  Em  G  Em  Am  F  G  Em
 
[Verse] 
G                  Em
A police car and a screaming siren,
G                   Em
Pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete,
G               Em
A baby wailing, stray dog howling,
G                           Em
The screech of brakes and a lamp light blinking,
 
[Chorus] 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F
That's entertainment,
 
[Instrumental] 
G Em G Em
 
[Verse] 
G                      Em
A smash of glass and a rumble of boots,
G                       Em
An electric train and a ripped up phone booth,
G                              Em
Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat,
G                      Em
Lights going out and a kick in the balls,
I say
 
[Chorus] 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!
Em    G        Em
La la la la la la...
 
[Verse] 
G                 Em
Days of speed and slow time Mondays,
G                           Em
Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday,
G                      Em
Watching the news, not eating your tea,
G                        Em
A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls,
I say
 
[Chorus] 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!
Em    G        Em
La la la la la la...
 
[Verse] 
G                     Em
Waking up at 6am on a cool warm morning,
G                       Em
Opening the windows and breathing in petrol,
G                               Em
An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard,
G                      Em
Watching the telly and thinking 'bout your holidays,
  
[Chorus]
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!
Em    G        Em
La la la la la la...
 
[Verse]
G                              Em
Waking up from a bad dream and smoking cigarrettes,
G                        Em
Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume,
G                      Em
A hot summer's day and sticky black tarmac,
G                             Em
Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were far away,

[Chorus] 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!
Em    G        Em
La la la la la la...
  
[Verse] 
G                              Em
Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight, 
G                      Em
Two lovers missing the tranquillity of solitude,
G                 Em
Getting a cab and travelling on buses,
G                      Em
Reading graffiti 'bout slashed seat affairs,
I say
  
[Chorus] 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!
Em    G        Em
La la la la la la...
 
Am          F
That's entertainment,
Am          F          G
That's entertainment - Ahh!

Gm7

In  the  mornin  you  go  gunnin'

For  the  man  who  stole  your  water  

And  you  fire  till  he  is  done  in  

But  they  catch  you  at  the  border  

And  the  mourners  are  all  singin'  

As  they  drag  you  by  your  feet  

But  the  hangman  isn't  hangin'  

And  they  put  you  on  the  street  



              Cm7    Dm7    Ebmaj7  Dm7          

You  go  back  Jack  do  it  again

Gm7  

Wheel  turnin'  'round  and  'round  

              Cm7    Dm7    Ebmaj7  Dm7

You  go  back  Jack  do  it  again  



Gm7

When  you  know  she's  no  high  climber  

Then  you  find  your  only  friend  

In  a  room  with  your  two  timer  

And  you're  sure  you're  near  the  end  

Then  you  love  a  little  wild  one  

And  she  brings  you  only  sorrow  

All  the  time  you  know  she's  smilin'  

You'll  be  on  your  knees  tomorrow  



              Cm7    Dm7    Ebmaj7  Dm7          

You  go  back  Jack  do  it  again

Gm7

Now  you  swear  and  kick  and  beg  us  

That  you're  not  a  gamblin'  man  

Then  you  find  you're  back  in  Vegas  

With  a  handle  in  your  hand  

Your  black  cards  can  make  you  money  

So  you  hide  them  when  you're  able  

In  the  land  of  milk  and  honey  

You  must  put  them  on  the  table  



              Cm7    Dm7    Ebmaj7  Dm7          

You  go  back  Jack  do  it  again

Gm7  

Wheel  turnin'  'round  and  'round  

              Cm7    Dm7    Ebmaj7  Dm7

You  go  back  Jack  do  it  again
