Intro
A7 D G D A7 D
[Verse 1]
A7
I write songs about politicians
D G
Corruption and sedition
D A7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
D A7
My lecture in aptness
D G
My political incorrectness
D A7 D
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
F#7
I may reach a crescendo
Bm
With a touch of innuendo
E A
I throw in an item of news
D A7
There'll be songs of deep depression
D G
Like a karaoke session
D A7 D
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
G D A7 D
[Verse 3]
A7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
D G
She lives just 'round the corner
D A7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
D A7
I have one for a friend in Chester
D G
Whose particular friend, Lester
D A7 D
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
F#7
This over way inquisition
Bm
I'm an incompetent magician
E A
I fail to saw my woman in two
D A7
While acting arty-tarty
D A7
At some late-night tinker's party
D A7 D
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
A7 D
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
A7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
D
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
G
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
D A7 D
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
G
Was it some smooth old talk?
D
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
G A7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
D
I want to know, I want to know
G
I want to know, I want to know
D A7 D
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
G D A7 D (3x)
[Verse 5]
A7
Singing on right, for nada
D G
Being seven years old in Ireland
D A7
And I won the great big kish and romance
D A7
That time in the café on the coast road
D G
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
D A7 D F#7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
Bm
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
E A
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
D A7
That's a topic not too cosy
D A7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
D A7 D
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
A7 D
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
A7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
D
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
G
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
D A7 D
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
G
Was it some smooth old talk?
D
Hey, take the dog for a walk
G A7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
D
I want to know, I want to know
G
I want to know for sure
D A7 D G D A7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
