[Intro:] Am C D7

We all came out to Montreux
C D7 Am
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
C D7 Am
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
D F Am C D Am C Eb/G D/F#
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
D F
Smoke on the water

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
