1969 Rock (With Intro / RTE Radio Eireann Session / 16th Jan 1973)

[Intro]

Hello there, I'm Eric Bell out of Thin Lizzy

The first time we're gonna play tonight is "1969 Rock"

I hope you really dig it

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]

The madman climbed the steeple spire

"Go higher, go higher," said the crowd from down below

"But the world's on fire," said the madman from the steeple spire

"You're a liar," said the crowd from down below

So the madman climbed the steeple spire

And let a crystal ball tear fall on the crowd down below

[Verse 2]

You, yeah, don't know what you're missing

I've got kissin' for you, yeah

You, yeah, I need you so

Oh, don't you know?

Oh, don't you know?

[Chorus]

And I know

I really love you

I really need you

You, yes, you, honeysuckle

Oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

You, yeah, got your mystic way

Got your purple haze

You, yeah, you, baby

I love you so

I need you, you know

You, baby

[Chorus]

And I know

I really love you

I really need you

You, yeah

You, ya pretty girl

Ow

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

You, you, you, you, you, you

You, yeah

You don't know what you're missin'

I've got kissin' for you, yeah

You, yeah, you don't own me

You can't control me

You, yeah

[Chorus]

And I know

I really l-l-l-l-love you

I really n-n-n-n-need you

You, yeah

You, baby face

[Instrumental Outro]

Ooh
