Intro
B7 E A E B7 E
[Verse 1]
B7
I write songs about politicians
E A
Corruption and sedition
E B7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
E B7
My lecture in aptness
E A
My political incorrectness
E B7 E
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
G#7
I may reach a crescendo
C#m
With a touch of innuendo
F# B
I throw in an item of news
E B7
There'll be songs of deep depression
E A
Like a karaoke session
E B7 E
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
A E B7 E
[Verse 3]
B7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
E A
She lives just 'round the corner
E B7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
E B7
I have one for a friend in Chester
E A
Whose particular friend, Lester
E B7 E
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
G#7
This over way inquisition
C#m
I'm an incompetent magician
F# B
I fail to saw my woman in two
E B7
While acting arty-tarty
E B7
At some late-night tinker's party
E B7 E
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
B7 E
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
B7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
E
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
A
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
E B7 E
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
A
Was it some smooth old talk?
E
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
A B7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
E
I want to know, I want to know
A
I want to know, I want to know
E B7 E
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
A E B7 E (3x)
[Verse 5]
B7
Singing on right, for nada
E A
Being seven years old in Ireland
E B7
And I won the great big kish and romance
E B7
That time in the café on the coast road
E A
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
E B7 E G#7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
C#m
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
F# B
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
E B7
That's a topic not too cosy
E B7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
E B7 E
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
B7 E
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
B7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
E
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
A
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
E B7 E
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
A
Was it some smooth old talk?
E
Hey, take the dog for a walk
A B7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
E
I want to know, I want to know
A
I want to know for sure
E B7 E A E B7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
