Dreadlock Holiday

by 10cc
10cc

Biography:

10cc are an English art rock and pop band. Initially comprised of four musicians - Graham Gouldman, Eric Stewart, Kevin Godley and Lol Creme - who had written and recorded together for some three years, before assuming the "10cc" name in 1972 - two strong song-writing teams, injected sharp wit to lyrically-dextrous songs.
Stewart and Gouldman were straight pop-song-writers, who created the band’s most accessible songs; Godley and Creme were the experimental half of 10cc, featuring an Art School sensibility and cinematic writing.

[Intro]

Gm Dm Cm Gm Dm Cm
Gm Dm Cm Dm Gm Dm Cm Dm


[Verse 1]

Gm Dm Cm
I was walkin' down the street,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
Concen-tratin' on truckin' right.
Dm Gm Dm Cm
I heard a dark voice beside of me,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
And I looked round in a state of fright.


[Bridge 1]

Dm Gm Dm Cm Dm
I saw four faces, one mad, a brother from the gutter.
Gm Dm Cm Dm
They looked me up and down a bit and turned to each other.


[Interlude]

Gm Dm Cm Dm
Gm Dm Cm N.C.
I say:


[Chorus 1]

Gm F D# Dm
I don't like cricket, oh no,
Cm Dm D#
I love it.
Gm F D# Dm
I don't like cricket, oh no,
Cm Dm D#
I love it.

Break:

F A# D#/A# A# D# A# D#/A# A#
Don't you walk through my words; you got to show some re-spect.
F A# D#/A# A# D# A# D#/A# A# Am D7
Don't you walk through my words, 'cos you ain't heard me out yet.


[Interlude]

Gm Dm Cm Dm Gm Dm Cm Dm


[Verse 2]

Gm Dm Cm
Well he looked down at my silver chain,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
He said I'll give you one dollar.
Dm Gm Dm Cm
I said You've got to be jokin' man,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
It was a present from me mother.


[Bridge 2]

Dm Gm Dm Cm
He said I like it, I want it, I'll take it off your hands,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
And you'll be sorry you crossed me, you'd better understand,
Dm Gm Dm Cm
That you're a-lone...
Dm Gm Dm Cm N.C.
A long way from home. And I say...


[Chorus 2]

Gm F D# Dm
I don't like Reggae, oh no,
Cm Dm D#
I love it.
Gm F D# Dm
I don't like Reggae, oh no,
Cm Dm D#
I love it.

Break:

F A# D#/A# A# D# A# D#/A# A#
Don't you cramp me style, don't you queer me pitch.
F A# D#/A# A# D# A# D#/A# A# Am D7
Don't you walk through my words, 'cos you ain't heard me out yet.

[Verse 3]

G#m D#m C#m
I hurried back to the swimming pool,
D#m G#m D#m C#m
Sinkin' pina coladas,
D#m G#m D#m C#m
I heard a dark voice beside me say,
D#m G#m D#m C#m
Would you like something harder.


[Bridge 3]

D#m G#m D#m C#m
She said I've got it, you want it, my harvest is the best,
D#m G#m D#m C#m D#m
And if you try it you'll like it, and wallow in a dreadlock holi...
G#m D#m
(Dreadlock, holi, Dreadlock holi,
C#m D#m G#m D#m C#m N.C.
Deadlock holi, Dreadlock holiday). And I say:


[Chorus 3]

G#m F# E D#m
Don't like Ja-maica, oh no,
C#m D#m E
I love her.
G#m F# E D#m
Don't like Ja-maica, oh no,
C#m D#m E
I love her.

Break:

F# B E/B B E B E/B B
Don't you walk through her words; you got to show some re-spect.
F# B E/B B E B E/B B A#m D#7
Don't you walk through her words, 'cos you ain't heard her out yet.
