The Ballad Of Peter

(início)

Riff inicial (Este riff é tocado quatro vezes como uma intro. A bateria entra na segunda vez e
a harmoia e Hammond veem na terceira vez. Apesar de o riff soar como algo diferente nas
notas que ligam os versos, acho que é por aí mais ou menos que se toca):
  +     +  +   +   +     +  +   +   +     +  +   +   +     +  +   +   +
         (Stab)           (Stab)           (Stab)           (Stab)

(x = Left-hand-muted percussive note)
.............................................................................................................
D                 G
 Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
D                    G
 Spreading wisdom and cash around
D                    G
 Fed the starving and housed the poor
D                  G
 Showed the Vatican what gold's for
G       A             Bm
 But he made too many enemies
G       A                Bm
 Of the people who would keep us on our knees
G           A
 Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
G           Gm/Bb A/C#   D   D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A
 Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead
D                  G
 Peter Pumpkinhead pulled them all
D                  G
 Emptied churches and shopping malls
D                      G
 Where he spoke it would raise the roof
D                  G
 Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth
G       A             Bm
 But he made too many enemies
G       A                Bm
 Of the people who would keep us on our knees
G           A
 Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
G           Gm/Bb A/C#   D   D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A
 Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead
D                  G
 Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame
D                     G
 Governments who would slur his name
D                     G
 Plots and sex scandals failed outright
D                   G
 Peter merely said, "Any kind of love is all right"
G       A             Bm
 But he made too many enemies
G       A                Bm
 Of the people who would keep us on our knees
G           A
 Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
G           Gm/Bb A/C#   D   D/C#  D/B  D/A  G  G/F#  Em  A
 Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead
D                  G
 Peter Pumpkinhead was too good
D                  G
 Had him nailed to a chunk of wood
D                   G
 He died grinning on live TV
D                       G
 Hanging there he looked a lot like you, and an awful lot like me!
G       A             Bm
 But he made too many enemies
G       A                Bm
 Of the people who would keep us on our knees
G           A
 Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
