Roland was a warrior from the Land of the Midnight Sun
SOL RE LAWith a Thompson gun for hire, fighting to be done
SIm RE SOLThe deal was made in Denmark on a dark and stormy day
So he set out for Biafra to join the bloody fray
SIm RE SOL
Through sixty-six and seven they fought the Congo war
Fingers on their triggers, knee-deep in gore
SIm RE SOLFor days and nights they battled the Bantu to their knees
SOL RE LA SImThey killed to earn their living and to help out the Congolese
SOL RE LA SIm
Roland the Thompson gunner...
Roland the Thompson gunner...
SIm RE SOL
His comrades fought beside him - Van Owen and the rest
But of all the Thompson gunners Roland was the best
SIm RE SOLSo the CIA decided they wanted Roland dead
SOL RE LA SImThat son-of-a-bitch Van Owen blew off Roland's head
Chorus: Harmony:
Roland the headless Thompson gunner (Time, time, time
D A For another peaceful war
Norway's bravest son But time stands still for
Roland
'Til he evens up the score)
LA SIm LA RE LA SOL SIm
They can still see his headless body stalking through the night
In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun
RE LA SOL SImIn the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun
SIm RE SOL
Roland searched the continent for the man who'd done him in
SOL RE LAHe found him in Mombassa in a barroom drinking gin
Roland aimed his Thompson gun - he didn't say a word
SOL RE LA SImBut he blew Van Owen's body from there to Johannesburg
SOL RE LA SIm
Roland the headless Thompson gunner...
SOL RE LA SImRoland the headless Thompson gunner...
Roland the headless Thompson gunner...
SIm RE SOL
The eternal Thompson gunner, still wandering through the night
SOL RE LANow it's ten years later but he still keeps up the fight
In Ireland, in Lebanon, in Palestine and Berkeley
SOL SOL SOL REPatty Hearst heard the burst of Roland's Thompson gun
LA SImAnd bought it
All the A cords can be played as a regular A or O O 2 2 O O, [I forget
the name of this cord]
