Ballad Of Robin Winter-smith

Written by Richard Dobson

	  		 

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 



Outro: E D A E
