Chords:
Transpose:
Alabama 3
Mansion on the Hill
Based on the track from The Last Train To Mashville, Vol.2

This is a pretty slow choon on the album and there is some finger picking, hammering and 
sliding but itÂ’s all based on these chords I think so itÂ’s a great one to improv on and 
muck about with.

Intro

A C D A C D

AI hit the dance floor around about midnight
C DGin and juice and I was feelinÂ’ fine
ACome the morning all the sounds went up
C DPolice man said the joint was shut
AAll the brothers gettin' busted outside
C DUndercover officers readin' them their rights
AItÂ’s a one way ticket boys youÂ’re prison bound
C DThe night the lights in Dallas went down
Chorus So
AHow long we gotta wait until
F D AWe get the keys to the mansion on the hill
AHow long we gotta waste our time
F D ABoardin' a bus that's bound for the welfare line
A C D
AShe shakes the blues off then she tries her luck
C DMakes a little bet, hopes her horse comes up
ASheÂ’s pickin' pockets for some easy money
C DBlew the damn lot on the lottery
AShe steals a paper, checks the front page
C DHeadlines read the dancehall can't be saved
AHow can they open up an opera house
C DThe night the lights in Dallas went down
Chorus So
AHow long we gotta wait until
F D AWe get the keys to the mansion on the hill
AHow long we gotta waste our time
F D ABoardin' a bus that's bound for the welfare line
A F D
D AWelfare lineÂ…
A C D
ATweek freak Tony on the four two eight
C DSpecial branch sting right time wrong place
AColumbian connections in the corridors of power
C DMean the man on the money ain't ever goin' down
ALord Lucky takes his lady to the Magic Flute
C DLittle taste or two thinks he's bullet proof
ATony tunes the underground radio
C DOn the night the lights in Dallas went down
Chorus So
AHow long we gotta wait until
F DWe get the keys to the mansion on the hill
AHow long we gotta waste our time
F D ABoardin' a bus that's bound for the welfare line
