Death Of A Disco Dancer
(Morrissey/Marr)
From: Winston Campbell <jieuryli@eden.rutgers.edu>
The intro bassline (and basically throughout the song) is:
B A G#m G B A G#m E
G -------------------------------|-------------------------------|
D -------------------------5-4---|-------------------------2-0---|
A -2----2-0----0---------------5-|-2----2-0----0---------------4-|
E ----2------0---4------3--------|----2------0---4--4p2p0--------|
Sometimes the bass changes a bit, but that is the basic bassline.
the lyrics are (and the same eight chord progression is constant throughout
the entire song):
B A G#m G
the death of a disco dancer
B A G#m E
well, it happens a lot round here
and if you think peace is a common goal
well, that goes to show
just how little you know
the death of a disco dancer
well, i~d rather not get involved
i never talk to my neighbour
i~d just rather not get involved
love, peace and harmony?
love, peace and harmony?
oh, very nice
very nice
very nice
very nice
...but maybe in the next world

F#m D Bm
Oh, you look so tired
F#m D Bm
Mouth is slack and wide
F#m D Bm
Ill-housed and ill-advised
F#m D Bm A
Your face is as mean as your life has been

Crash into my arms

I want you
E D
You don't agree but you don't refuse

I know you
F#m D Bm
And I know a place
F#m D Bm
Where no one is likely to pass
F#m D Bm
Oh, you don't care if it's late
F#m D Bm
And you don't care if you're lost
F#m D Bm
And, oh, you look so tired
F#m D Bm
But tonight you presume too much
F#m D Bm
Too much, too much
F#m
And if it's the last thing I ever do
D Bm A
I'm gonna get you
E D
Crash into my arms
E A
I want you
E D
You don't agree but you don't refuse
E - F5
I know you
