[Dm]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Anto
took me down to Whistler's [C]place
[Dm]It was like a scene fr[C]om
[Dm]a dream[C]
Tarantulas, drapes, [G]magic mushroom cakes
[D]Sha[Dm]rks han[C]ging from the[Dm] beam[D]s
[Dm]Dave Ruffian was there[C]
[Dm]with a sad- eyed girl
And the son of [C]Ringo [Dm]Starr
[C]It was a night like any other, man
[G]At [C]the [F]Hammerhead,
the Hammerhead, the [Dm]Ham merhead Bar

[Verse 2]
[Dm]
Four beer[D]- bellied roadies from
Uriah [Dm]Heep[C]
Were com[D]paring stom[C]ach [Dm]tattoos[C]
Two had Satan, [G]one had Tam Paton
[Dm]One had a belt- shaped b[C]ruise
[Dm]In a spotlit corner a fam
[D]ous [Dm]DJ
Was showing [C]a starl[Dm]et his scars
[C]Yeah it was all for one and one for all
[Gsus4]At the Ha[G]mmer[C]head, the Hammerhead, at
the [Dm]Ham merhead Bar
[D]

[Verse 3]
Three groupies [Dm]were gargling
[D]umbrella drinks
Under the eye of the [Dm]Ox[C]
The first said to the second
[G]about the third
[Dm]"She's as square as a fucking box"
[D]Viv Stanshall turned up on cue
With a pickled [C]skull in [Dm]a jar[C]
There was always something
intriguing to [G]do
At the [C]Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, at
[Dm]the [D]Hammerhead Bar

[Verse 4]
[D]
The [Dm]local MP, a Tory [C]grandee
[D]Sir [Dm]Bufton Fairbairn- [C]Smart
Who dressed like a cross
between [G]Robert The Bruce
[C]And[D] Napoleon Bonaparte
Was busy murdering Billy Joel's
"Just [Dm]The Way You [C]Are"
[Dm]It was b[C]usiness as usual, sunny boys
[G]At the [C]Hammerhead, the Hammerhead, at the
[Dm]Hammerhead Bar

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][C][G][Dm][G][Gsus4][G][D]
[C][D]

[Verse 5]
On the [D]stroke of [C]midnight Whist[D]ler said
"Let us now toast the
deceased!"
[C]And he sank his snout in [G]a stained- glass keg
[D]Of alcohol and yea[C]st
[D]Nine Lithuanian dancing girls
Each sucking a fat [C]cigar
Jitterbugged along the beer- [G]strewn top
Of [D]the [G]Hammerhead, the[Dm][C]
Hammerhead, of the [D]Hammerhead Bar

[Verse 6]
[D]
[Dm]Those days are gone,
those dan[D]cing [Dm]days[D]
Of [C]bacchanal, [D]of [C]drink
Whistler sleeps with [G]mermaids[D]
Groupies are extinct
[Dm]The famous DJ is d[D]oing[Dm] time
[D]For acts l[Dm]ewd and bizarr[C]e
And only dust remains, boys
[G]Of [C]the Hammerhead,
[Dm]the Hammerhead, the Hammer[D]head Bar

[Verse 7]
[D]
Of [Dm]the H[C]ammerhead Bar[G]
Of [D]the [C]Hammerhead Bar[G]
Of the [Dm]Hammerhead Bar
[D]
