[Intro]
Am Dm Am E Am E

[Verse 1]
Am E Am E Am E
Now I've got my payment For the service that I gave
Am E Am G C
They've given me my ticket To this place beyond the grave
Dm G Am G F E
I suppose it's kind of funny I suppose it's kind of sad
Am E Am Dm Am E
Thinking back on all the times we had

[Chorus]
Am E Am E Am E
But it's kind of hot and smoky In this anteroom to hell
Am E Am G C
And I won't make up a story 'Cause you know the truth so well
Dm G Am G F E
It's much too late to worry That we never had a chance
Am E Am G Dm
And when Joe the Georgian gets here We will dance, dance, dance
Am E Am Dm Am E
When Joe the Georgian gets here We will dance

[Instrumental]
Am Dm Am E Am E Am E

[Verse 2]
Am E Am E Am E
We all set off together On this sorry ship of state
Am E Am G C
When the captain took the fever We were hijacked by the mate
Dm G Am G F E
And he steered us through the shadows Upon an angry tide
Am E Am Dm Am E
And cast us one by one over the side

[Chorus]
Am E Am E Am E
But it's kind of hot and smoky In this anteroom to hell
Am E Am G C
And I won't make up a story 'Cause you know the truth so well
Dm G Am G F E
It's much too late to worry That we never had a chance
Am E Am G Dm
And when Joe the Georgian gets here We will dance, dance, dance
Am E Am Dm Am E
When Joe the Georgian gets here We will dance

[Instrumental]
Am Dm Am E Am E Am E
Am Dm Am E Am E Am E

[Verse 3]
Am E Am E Am E
There's Kamenev, Zinoviev, Bukharin and the rest
Am E C G C
We're sharpening our pitchforks And we're heating up the ends
Dm G Am G F E
We've got a few surprises For the mate when he appears
