Lyrics

We (G5)all came out to Mon treaux

on the Lake Ge ne va shore line

to make rec ords with a mo bile,

we did n’t (G5)have much time.

But Frank Zap pa and the Moth ers

were at the best (F5)place a round.

But some stu pid with a flare gun

burned the place (F5)to the ground.

(C5)Smoke

on the (Ab5)wa ter,

a fire in the sky.

(C5)Smoke

on the (Ab5)wa ter.
