Mischief Brew – A Liquor Never Brewed (Guitar)

|G        |Cm Gm D Gm|
                   Hey!

      Gm
There was a knockin' at my door

Cm                  Gm
It's the dreaded landlord

    Cm                 Gm               D              Bb
He wants his rent and wants it now, and he is careless how

    Eb                  Bb   F      Eb     Bb
He left us in a vacant daze, asking how we got here.

 Gm                                 D                 Gm
And we retired to slumber but, the glasses never were rinsed.

      Gm
There was a tappin' on my back

Cm               Gm
It's the dreaded foreman

   Cm           Gm                 D              Bb
I think I see a smile through his teeth and his cigar

   Eb               Bb               F    Eb      Bb
He put my hands to work and said I'd otherwise do nothin'

      Gm                                 D              Gm
And I made a thousand things today, I'm sure I'll never use.

      Gm
There was a ringin' on my phone

   Cm             Gm           Cm                Gm
I picked it up to answer, they said they were my comrade.

          D               Bb
But they couldn't say my name

     Eb                   Bb
So I asked them about the sun and moon

     F           Eb        Bb
And what their thoughts on time were

     Gm                             D               Gm
They hung it up in madness and went on to punch the clock

Cm                                         Gm
And somewhere there's a sound of someone singing

  D                         Gm
I got an invitation once to liberty

     Cm                       Bb
They had a mischief brew but, no goblets were used

D
Besting rum or porter 'tis a liquor never brewed.

         Gm
Never brewed...

|Gm  Cm Gm|Cm Gm D Gm|
                    Hey!

      Gm
There was a knockin' at my door

Cm               Gm
It's the dreaded policemen

   Cm              Gm              D                      Bb
He had a ticket to enter signed by fools and stamped with laws

        Eb              Bb            F        Eb   Bb
And he questioned me on politics and scored my generation

    Gm                             D        Gm
For not respecting elders and the lands authority

Gm
When the rebel came to knock,

  Cm                Gm
I said "Come back tomorrow

        Cm                Gm                D               Bb
There's more life I'll be living than just slaving for your wage... hey!

    Eb                 Bb
And to the troop and foreman.

        F          Eb      Bb         D
Make yourself the things I don't use

        Gm            D           F            Gm
For I'm off into the forest for a liquor never brewed!"

          Cm                              Gm
today I'm following the sound of someone singing

  D                         Gm
I got an invitation once to liberty

     Cm                       Bb
They had a mischief brew but, no goblets were used

D
Besting rum or porter 'tis a liquor never brewed.

         Gm
Never brewed...
