Intro
C7 F A# F C7 F
[Verse 1]
C7
I write songs about politicians
F A#
Corruption and sedition
F C7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
F C7
My lecture in aptness
F A#
My political incorrectness
F C7 F
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
A7
I may reach a crescendo
Dm
With a touch of innuendo
G C
I throw in an item of news
F C7
There'll be songs of deep depression
F A#
Like a karaoke session
F C7 F
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
A# F C7 F
[Verse 3]
C7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
F A#
She lives just 'round the corner
F C7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
F C7
I have one for a friend in Chester
F A#
Whose particular friend, Lester
F C7 F
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
A7
This over way inquisition
Dm
I'm an incompetent magician
G C
I fail to saw my woman in two
F C7
While acting arty-tarty
F C7
At some late-night tinker's party
F C7 F
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
C7 F
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
C7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
F
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
A#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
F C7 F
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
A#
Was it some smooth old talk?
F
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
A# C7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
F
I want to know, I want to know
A#
I want to know, I want to know
F C7 F
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
A# F C7 F (3x)
[Verse 5]
C7
Singing on right, for nada
F A#
Being seven years old in Ireland
F C7
And I won the great big kish and romance
F C7
That time in the café on the coast road
F A#
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
F C7 F A7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
Dm
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
G C
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
F C7
That's a topic not too cosy
F C7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
F C7 F
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
C7 F
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
C7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
F
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
A#
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
F C7 F
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
A#
Was it some smooth old talk?
F
Hey, take the dog for a walk
A# C7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
F
I want to know, I want to know
A#
I want to know for sure
F C7 F A# F C7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
