Rue Des Blancs-Manteaux Lyrics & Tabs by Marc Almond

Rue Des Blancs-Manteaux

guitar chords lyrics

Marc Almond

In the Rue des Blancs-Manteaux
They raised a wooden stage
Threw some bran in a basket

And there was the scaffold
In the Rue des Blancs-Manteaux
In the Rue des Blancs-Manteaux
The executioner rose at dawn
He had a job to do
He must chop the generals, bishops and admirals too
In the Rue des Blancs-Manteaux
Into the Rue des Blancs-Manteaux
Came the well-bred women
With their precious jewels
But the heads they turned them
Rolling from on high

With their precious jewels
But the heads they turned them
Rolling from on high
Heads stuck in their hats
In the gutter of the Blancs-Manteaux
