Intro
G7 C F C G7 C
[Verse 1]
G7
I write songs about politicians
C F
Corruption and sedition
C G7
My songs they tiptoe over the line
C G7
My lecture in aptness
C F
My political incorrectness
C G7 C
Mea culpa, all these songs, they are mine
[Verse 2]
E7
I may reach a crescendo
Am
With a touch of innuendo
D G
I throw in an item of news
C G7
There'll be songs of deep depression
C F
Like a karaoke session
C G7 C
And I might do a song about you
[Interlude]
F C G7 C
[Verse 3]
G7
There'll be one for my friend, Lorna
C F
She lives just 'round the corner
C G7
Now Lorna only ever listens to the blues
C G7
I have one for a friend in Chester
C F
Whose particular friend, Lester
C G7 C
Has just left him to go back on the booze
[Verse 4]
E7
This over way inquisition
Am
I'm an incompetent magician
D G
I fail to saw my woman in two
C G7
While acting arty-tarty
C G7
At some late-night tinker's party
C G7 C
So I might do this song about you
[Chorus 1]
G7 C
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
G7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
C
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
F
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
C G7 C
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
F
Was it some smooth old talk?
C
Or did you just take the dog for a big long walk?
F G7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
Oh no, you would not do that
C
I want to know, I want to know
F
I want to know, I want to know
C G7 C
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Instrumental]
F C G7 C (3x)
[Verse 5]
G7
Singing on right, for nada
C F
Being seven years old in Ireland
C G7
And I won the great big kish and romance
C G7
That time in the café on the coast road
C F
When delicious Sister Mary Joseph
C G7 C E7
Sidled up to me and begged me for a dance (there ye are)
[Verse 6]
There was the pretty little acrobat
Am
She gave me peppermint tea and a pretty little hat
D G
She did fifteen cartwheels on my floor
C G7
That's a topic not too cosy
C G7
For a big jack-queen called Rosy
C G7 C
Who's never heard or cried, "Collect them all!"
[Chorus 1]
G7 C
But I want to know what brings you here tonight
G7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
C
You see, I'm up here, you're over there
F
Well, you could be home in your easy-chair
C G7 C
I want to know what brings you here tonight
[Chorus 2]
F
Was it some smooth old talk?
C
Hey, take the dog for a walk
F G7
Or did you just sneak out behind your wife?
N.C.
For the fifth time this week, baby
C
I want to know, I want to know
F
I want to know for sure
C G7 C F C G7
I want to know what brings you here tonight
