Lyrics & Chords: International Disaster


by Jim Pembroke. Album: The Lucky Golden Stripes And Starpose (1976)
           A                            D
They'll be skiing down in St. Moritz to boating up at Eton
        E                A
Playing tennis in Monaco too
F#m                 Bm
Poker in Gibraltar, bingo in Mallorca
           D                   E
And housey-housey out in Timbuktu

And they'll be waltzin' in Vienna and fightin' in Angola
Over Coca Cola too
Sunbathing in Clacton, hijackin' Manhattan
Playing Chinese checkers in Peru

       F#m               A
  International disaster slowly gettin' faster
        D              F#m
  Gonna take us by surprise
       A                 D
  International disaster send for the plaster
  Bm                  E
  Gotta stick it on before I dies
       F#m               A
  International disaster gonna be a blaster
        D             F#m
  Gonna rearrange our lives
       A                 D
  International disaster send for the master
  Bm                    E
  Don't wait to see the white of his eyes

         F#m           E    D
    International disaster (comin')
         F#m           E    D
    International disaster (comin')
         F#m           E    D       F#m...
    International disaster (comin')

And they'll be flyin' in the Concorde and rollin' in the gutter
Calcutta and Singapore
Price of silver dropping so do yer Christmas shopping
Before you lose the chance the score

  International disaster...

    International disaster...
