Sultans Of Swing Guitar Chords

                 Dm
You get a shiver in the dark
      C                       Bb
It’s raining in the park
       A
But meantime
Dm
South of the river You
C                        Bb               A           
stop and you hold everything
F
A band is blowing Dixie
                C
Double four time
Bb
You feel alright  When
                                     Dm Bb-C
you hear the music ring

                           Dm
Well, now you step inside
               C               Bb              A
But you don’t see too many faces
Dm                               C
Coming in out of the rain to
  Bb          A
hear the Jazz go down
F                                       C
Competition in other places

Bb
Ah, but the horns,
  Dm
they blowin’ that sound
Bb – C
Way on down south
Bb – C
Way on down south,
Dm
London town

                  Dm                   C
Check out guitar George
Bb             A
He knows  all the chords
Dm
Mind, it’s strictly rhythm
      C   
He doesn’t want to
Bb                A
make it cry or sing
F
Yes and an old guitar
  C
is all he can afford
Bb
When he gets up under the
Dm Bb-C
lights to play his thing

Dm                            C
And Harry doesn’t mind
Bb                  A
if he doesn’t  make the scene
Dm                           C
He’s got a daytime job –
Bb         A
he’s doing alright
F
He can play the
       C
Honky Tonk like anything
Bb
Saving it up for
Dm Bb-C
Friday night
                              Bb-C
With the Sultans
                                     Dm
With the Sultans of Swing

              Dm
Then a crowd of young boys
               C             Bb                  A
They’re fooling around in the corner
Dm
Drunk and dressed in
 C
their best brown baggies
Bb                    A
And their platform soles
F
They don’t give a damn
                    C
About any trumpet playing band
Bb
It ain’t what they call
                Dm  Bb – C
Rock and Roll
                              Bb – C
And the Sultans
                                                   Dm
Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole

Dm
And then the man
          C              Bb
He steps right up to
A
the microphone
Dm                C
And says at last
                    Bb             A       A7
Just as the time bell rings
F
“Goodnight, now it’s
 C
time to go home”
Bb
Then he makes it fast
                                Dm Bb-C
With one more thing
                                  Bb-C
“We are the Sultans –
Dm
We are the Sultans of Swing”
