CASABLANCA MOON by Slapp Happy
from the 1974 album 'Slapp Happy' 
Written by Peter Blegvad and Anthony Moore
(C) 1974 by Virgin Records
Transcribed by Tha Funkinator (dwarfmuncher(at)gmail.com)

Notes: 
-I'm not sure if the interlude ends on a Cm or a Cm9 or a Cm(add9), although
just plain Cm works.
-To match the 'original' (released on 'Acnalbasac Noom') version, 
transpose down 1/2 step.

[Verse 1:]
BbmHe (x13321@1)used to wear fedoras, but now he sports a fez
F7There's (131241@1)kabbalistic innuendoes in everything he says
F7Sucking (131241@1)on a cigarette, picking up the threads
BbmUnderneath (x13321@1)the Casablanca moon

[Verse 2:]
He lurks behind a paper in the shadow of a mosque
He can't count all the continents he's crossed
Trailing party members, leaving footprints in the frost
Underneath the Acnalbasac Noom

[Chorus]
EbmHis (xx4342@1)cover was broken somewhere in Hoboken
BbmThe (x13321@1)Man said his case was lost
C7His (x32310@1)team was sent to the Orient
F7A (131241@1)double agent, double-crossed

[Verse 3:]
There's a cocaine stain on his moustache
Pieces of his puzzle just don't join
People in high places want to stamp his many faces
On a Trans-Caucasian coin

[Interlude]
BbHe (x1333x@1)better watch his step, cos sooner or later
G (320003@1)                                 Cm (x3101x@1)        F7They'll (131241@1)find his headless body in a ventilator

[Verse 4:]
Lines of sweat, like tinsel, start to smart his eyes
Neuroses seep like cement through the cracks in his disguise
In a dark bordello, broke a mirror with a cry
Underneath the Casablanca Moon

[Verse 5:]
Yesterday evening, he finally lost his mind
The walls fell in, he saw mankind
Standing before him, raising their hand
In a significant gesture which he didn't understand

[Chorus]
[Repeat Verse 1]

[Coda:]
BbHe (x1333x@1)better watch his step, cos sooner or later
G (320003@1)                                 Cm (x3101x@1)      
They'll find his headless body in a ventilator
