The Playboy Mansion
words/music by U2 from the album POP
Transcribed by Ryan Combs 1combsry@mystic.slcc.edu
This swanky little number off the Pop album sounds as though it
has a lot of effects. I don't know everthing The Edge uses but
a Wah Wah would help.
If coke is a mystery and michael jackson... history If beauty
is truth and surgery the fountain of youth What am I to do?
Have I got the gifts to get me through the gates of that mansion
If oj is more than a drink and a big mac bigger than you think
If perfume is an obsession and talk shows... confession What
have we got to lose another push and (maybe) we'll be through
the gates of that mansion [Play Riff 1 as before]
I never bought a lotto ticket I never parked in anyone's space
the banks they're like cathedrals I guess casinos took their
Riff 1 [6 times]
place love come on down don't wake her she'll come around chance
is a kind of religion where you're damned for plain hard luck
I never did see that movie I never did read that book love come
on down left my numbers come around
don't know if I can hold on don't know if I'm that strong
don't know if I can wait that long till the colours come flashing
A Riff 1 [4 times]
and the lights go on then will there be no time for sorrow
then will there be no time for shame and though I can't say why
I know I've got to believe
we'll go driving in that pool it's who you know that gets you
through the gates of the playboy mansion
Riff 1 [10 times ('till the end)]
then will there be no time for sorrow
then will there be no time for shame
then will there be no time for sorrow
then will there be no time for shame
