Once in a Very Blue Moon
1984
[intro]
E D A E
E D
Mamma's in the kitchen rattlin' pans and the baby cries,
A E
on the TV news, somebody died
E D
He was a crazy biker in a motorcycle ridin' daredevil show,
A E
in Merry England, oh, twenty seven years old
E
He was tryin' to break the record,
D
for jumpin' over cars, he was the champ
A E
He fell a little bit short oh, hit the ramp
E D A E
E D
This is the story, sad and it's gory of Robin Winter-Smith
A E
He was a very brave man if you get my drift
E
'Cause he waved to the crowd, headed down the runway like
D A E
a man possessed, Robin Winter-Smith, I guess he did his best
E D A E
E D
I make a livin' a-playin' these songs and I hang out in bars
A E
I play my guitar, oh but honey, I don't jump over cars
E D
Mamma's in the kitchen rattlin' pans and the baby cries,
A E
on the TV news, somebody died
E D
He was a crazy biker in a motorcycle ridin' daredevil show,
A E
in Merry England, oh, twenty seven years old
