Back in sixty-eight in a sweaty club (oh Geno)
C# B C# B
Before Jimmy's machine and the rocksteady rub (oh Geno)
B F#m
On a night when flowers didn't suit my shoes
B F#m
After a week of flunkin' and bunkin' school
B F#m
The lowest head in the crowd that night
B F#m
Just practicin' steps and keepin' out of the fights
A E B F#
Academic inspiration you gave me none
A E B F#
You were Michael the lover the fighter that won
A E B F#
And now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you
A E B F#
No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do

That man took the stage his towel swinging high (oh Geno)
C# B C# B
This man was my bombers, my dexys, my highs (oh Geno)
B F#m
And the crowd they all hailed you and chanted your name
B F#m
But they never knew like we knew me and you we're the same
B F#m
And now your all over your song is so tame
B F#m
Brrrr you fed me your bread and I'll remember your name
A E B F#
Academic inspiration you gave me none
A E B F#
You were Michael the lover the fighter that won
A E B F#
And now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you
A E B F#
No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do
A B F# E (x2) A B C#

Oh Geno

Oh Geno
