G5 B♭5 C5  G5 B♭5 D♭5 C5  G5 B♭5 C5  B♭5 G5  x 4

   G5
We all came out to Montreux
              F5   G5
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
G5
To make records with a mobile
F5        G5
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

  C5           A♭5   G5  (b♭ g b♭ g f g   b♭ g b♭ g f)
  Smoke on the water and fire in the sky
  C5           A♭5
  Smoke on the water

Riff  x 2

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky & Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out of 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

  Refrain

Riff  x 2

Riff  x 2

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty, cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there

With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know, I know we'll never forget

  Refrain

Riff  x 4
