Patti Smith

Biography:

Patricia Lee "Patti" Smith (born December 30, 1946) is an American singer, poet and visual artist who was a highly influential component of the New York punk rock movement, particularly with her 1975 début album 'Horses'. Called the "Godmother of Punk", she integrated the beat poetry performance style with three-chord rock.

[Intro]

F G Am C G Am x 2


[Verse 1]

C G Am F G Am
I was down in Georgia nothing was as real
C G Am F G Am
As the street beneath my feet descending into air

C G Am F G Am


[Verse 2]

C G Am F G Am
The cauldron was a bubbling, the flesh was lean
C G Am F G Am
And the women moved forward like piranhas in a stream
C G Am F G Am
They spread themselves before me an offering so sweet
C G Am F G Am
And they beckoned and they beckoned come on darling eat


[Chorus]

F G Am C G Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
F G Am C G Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Verse 3]

C G Am F G Am
They circled around me natives in a ring
C G Am F G Am
And I saw their souls a-withering like snakes in chains
C G Am F G Am
And they wrapped themselves around me, what a treat
C G Am F G Am
And they rattled their tales hissing’ come on let’s eat


[Chorus]

F G Am C G Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
F G Am C G Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Instrumental]

F G Am C G Am x 4


[Verse 4]

C G Am F G Am
I felt a rising in my throat the girls a-saying grace
C G Am F G Am
And the air, the viscous air pressed against my face
C G Am F G Am
And it all got too damn much for me just got too damn rough
C G Am F G Am
And I pushed away my plate and said boys I've had enough
C G Am F G Am
And I laid upon the table another piece of meat
C G Am F G Am
And I opened up my veins to them and said come on eat


[Chorus]

F G Am C G Am
Eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
F G Am C G Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
F G Am C G Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat
F G Am C G Am
You eat the summer cannibals, eat eat eat


[Outro]

F G Am C G Am
‘Cause I was down in Georgia nothing was as real
F G Am C G Am
As the street beneath my feet descending into hell
F G Am
So eat eat eat
F G Am
You eat eat eat
F G Am
You eat eat eat
F G Am
Eat eat eat
