Tiger Lillies - Violin Time
Dm Gm
Violin time at the port side
Dm A
And the whores say pretty words
Dm Gm
To an old man who is dying
A Dm
And his cries they do disturb
Dm Gm
Violin time for the soldier
Dm A
He curses as you squeal
Dm Gm
And he kills you for a reason
A Dm
Patriotic imbecile
Bb Dm
Violin time, violin time,
Bb A
violin time, violin
Dm Gm
Violin time for the mother
Dm A
And child she has lost
Dm Gm
Violin time, violin time
A Dm
As they nail her to the cross
Bb Dm
Violin time, violin time,
Bb A
violin time, violin
Bb Dm
Violin time, violin time,
A Dm
violin, violin
Dm Gm
Violin time for the desperado
Dm A
Who is crying into his cup
Dm Gm
Violin time, violin time
A Dm
As they come to lock him up
Bb Dm
Violin time, violin time,
Bb A
violin time, violin
Bb Dm
Violin time, violin time,
A Dm
violin, violin
