Container-lied

Written by Andreas Frege/Andreas Meurer

	  		
So this is "Containerlied" by the German Rock- and Punk-Band "Die Toten Hosen" 

For everyone who can't speak german, this is what the song's about.. 

it's about a beggar who tries to sleep in a container in cold night.. 

But unfortunately he dies.. on his head he's wearing a crown made out of a  

newspaper. 

the last verse is about his "comeback".. he appears as a cloud and what does 

he see? a little boy's wearing his paper-crown.. 


For the sound: i think it sounds pretty much like the original if you hardly  

use overdrive,  

but turn up the treble a bit more than usual. 

About the A-chords marked with a "*": 

play it as barre-chord...so it's 577655..from low to high.. 

i think it sounds better..now have fun with the song 


 (E)           (A)               (E)      (B)  

Dies ist 'ne Geschichte, die das Leben schrieb, 

           (C#m)          (E)     (B) 
von einem Penner, der in einen Container stieg. 

 (E)       (A)        (E)    (B)  
Es war sehr kalt in dieser Nacht 

         (C#m)       (E)     (B) 
und zum Schlafen war das kein schlechter Platz. 


Zwischenspiel: E, A, E, B  

            (E)      (A)          (E)  (B)  
Es war 'ne Hausfrau, die ihn als Erste sah, 

             (C#m)      (E)     (B) 
als er schon steif und längst erfroren war. 

         (E)      (A)          (E)  (B)  
Auf dem Kopf eine Krone aus Zeitungspapier - 
  
          (C#m) (E)             (B) (E) 
sah wie'n König aus, nur etwas unrasiert. 



 (C#m)                  (A)*     
Später kam er dann als Wolke zurück. 

         (E)             (B) 
Sah von oben herab und freute sich. 

    (C#m)                    (A)*      
Er erkannte seine Krone aus Zeitungspapier: 

             (E)                (B)   (E) 
ein kleiner Junge trug sie mit sich spazieren.
