Intro: E (mit Bassaufgang zur Strophe: H - C# - D#)

Strophe 1:

       E
I'm a lonesome rider,

         C#/G#

I'm a real tough guy,

             F#

I tell you livin' ain't easy but 

H                        A#
every day I try. 

      A                    A#⁰
I've seen a million places.

       H        C#
Baby I get around

         F#
with a sixpack of beer 

                   H/F# E
and a Maschendrahtzaun. 

        E
Im a hardworking man.

                C#/G#
I don't need much in life.

            F#
I got my horse, I got my boots,

   H                        A#
a hat and a knife. 

A               A#⁰
All I really need 

      H             C#
can surely be found

          F#
I need girls, I need whisky

                 H/F# E
and Maschendrahtzaun. 

Refrain:

A
Maschendrahtzaun in the morning,

E
Maschendrahtzaun late at night,

A                                                        A   A#⁰
Maschendrahtzaun in the evening,

H
Maschendrahtzaun makes me feel alright.

      A# A           A#⁰
And if I ever be king

H                 C#/G#
and I get a crown

                   F#
then it would surely be made of

                 H/F# E
Maschendrahtzaun... 

2. Strophe:

         E
All the ladies wanna have me,

         C#/G#

I'm a handsome boy

                F#

and all the boys want me too,

                     H                              A#
in especially Siegfried und Roy. 

        A                  A#⁰
I'm a sexmachine, baby,

               H                         C#
I had more girls than James Brown,
        F#
and I fucked them all
                    H/F# E
on the Maschendrahtzaun. 
         E
But now the time has gone by
                             C#/G#

and something happened to me.
            F#

I'm only half the man

   H                A# 
I used to be.

              A          A#⁰
I was the sexiest man

         H              C#
in the whole big town

           F#
before I ripped my balls

                    H/F# E
on the Maschendrahtzaun. 

Refrain

3. Strophe:

         E
I was also a Sheriff,

             C#/G#
I was fighting for right.

        F#
I was protecting law and order

          H                           A# 
every day, every night. 

        A               A#⁰
I was hunting a man

         H          C#
with a big fat Bauch.

        F#
And I caught him in the back of a

     H/F#  E
Knallerbsenstrauch. 

                 E
But now the story is over.

                 C#/G#
I had a good good life.

  F#
I still got my horse,

      H                               A# 
my boots and my knife. 

  A                 A#⁰
I did a lot of travelling,

     H                   C#
but now I settle down,

         F#
at the Knallerbsenstrauch

                    H/F# E
on the Maschendrahtzaun. 

Refrain

                  F#
then it would surely be made of 

           H/F# E
Maschendrahtzaun...
                  F#
then it would surely be made of 

           H/F# E
Maschendrahtzaun...

Yeah...!
