before you got to know a little dream Look at the Bangin'
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/slade/bangin_man_tab_ver_3.html ]
A
When you wake up in the morning
E
You can't remember much about the night before
A
Then the lady who's beside you gets up
E
She goes right out and locks the bathroom door
D D
And your head won't stop singing, the phone won't stop ringing
F
Your plane is goin' to leave at 12:15
A E A
It was close to 6 o'clock before you got to know a little dream
Chorus (play twice)
E
Look at the bangin' man, he says he can
D A
Time after time
E
He'll get down, down, down
A
To bang him back home
(repeat intro into verse second time)
I've been in fifty different towns in fifty different days
They all got different names
I've been in fifty limousines and fifty hotel rooms
They all look the same
And your head won't stop cracking, your case she's unpacking
The only sound is from the TV screen
Until a knock comes on the door and standing there's another little dream
Chorus
Guitar solo

Oh when you wake up in the morning
You can't remember much about the night before
A small reminder of the state you were in
Are all the tattered clothes across the floor
And your head it still keeps singing, the phone it still keeps ringing
Remember just exactly where you've been
'Cause there ain't no doubt about it
There's no better things to see than what you've seen
Chorus
