Attilas Blues (CHORDS) by The Guess Who
[Intro]~
F#7 A7 E7
Show biz train,.. baby won't you climb on board
F#7 A7 E7
Show biz train,.. baby won't you climb on board
[Verse 1]~
E7
Is your manager managin' to manage for the best
E7
Or is he makin' out fine for himself
E7
Does your record label bring you in with trumpets and horns
E7
Just to pack you back away on the shelf
A
Is your lawyer lyin' to you,.. do you really want to know
A A7 E7
As your agent waiting home for his pay pay pay
B7 A7
Welcome one and all now to show show business
G7 A7 E7
Wouldn't have it any other way
B7 A7
Welcome one and all now to show show business
G7 A7 E7
Wouldn't have it any other way
[Verse 2]~
E7
Got some people linin' up for seven days before you come
E7
But then your house is full of empty chairs
E7
Are you findin' self-importance in the things that you've done
E7
You're findin' out that no one really cares
A
Do the people buy your records,.. do they play them on the air
A7 E7
But the warehouse must be where they stay
B7 A7
Welcome one and all now to show show business
G7 A7 E7
Wouldn't have it any other way
B7 A7
Welcome one and all now to show show business
G7 A7 E7
Wouldn't have it any other way
[Instrumental Solo]~
E7 A7 E7
[Chorus]~
F#7 A7 E7
Show biz train,.. baby won't you climb on board
F#7 A7 E7 A7 B7
Show biz train,.. baby won't you climb on board
[Bridge]~
E7
Well have you ever had an aardvark sandwich
E7
Have you ever had a seagull stew
A7 E7
I had a pet pitiful penguin and I made him watch the six o'clock news
E
And shine my shoes
B7 A7 E7 A7 B7
I got the "help preserve 'em,.. don't deserve 'em,.. try and serve 'em,.. love 'em all" blues
E7
Well,.. have you ever seen a Madras monkey
E7
Have you ever seen an Orlon eel
A7 E7
I had a pet pitiful parrot and I taught him how to pick and choose,.. drink my booze
B7 A7 E7 A7 B7
I got the "help preserve 'em,.. don't deserve 'em,.. try and serve 'em,.. love 'em all" blues
A7
Just keepin' track of where things are all goin'
E7
Baby just keepin' track
A7
Just keepin' track of where things are all goin'
E7
Baby just keepin' track
A7 E7
Housefly,.. tell me what you're thinkin' 'bout
A7 E7
Housefly,.. tryin' to really sort it out
D7 F7
Flyin' head-on into the plate glass window
D7 E7
Sniffin' that DDT
A7 E7
Dumb bird,.. flyin's comin' slowly to you
A7 E7
Dumb bird,.. flyin' isn't holy to you
D7 F7
Headin' down South for the big celebration
D7 E7
You got a ride for me (know what I'm tellin' ya)
[Chorus]~
F#7 A7 E7

Show biz train,.. baby won't you climb on board
