Gunner
Bm

Roland was a warrior from the Land of the Midnight
Sun
G

A*
With a Thompson gun for hire, fighting to be done

The deal was made in Denmark on a dark and
stormy day
G

So he set out for Biafra to join the bloody fray

Bm
D

Through sixty-six and seven they fought the Congo
war
G

Fingers on their triggers, knee-deep in gore
Bm

For days and nights they battled the Bantu to their
knees
G
D
A
Bm
They killed to earn their living and to help out the
Congolese
G
D
A Bm
Roland the Thompson gunner...
G
D
A Bm
Roland the Thompson gunner...

Bm
D

His comrades fought beside him - Van Owen and the
rest
G

But of all the Thompson gunners Roland was the
best
Bm D
G
So the CIA decided they wanted Roland dead
G
D A
Bm
That son-of-a-bitch Van Owen blew off Roland's
head

Chorus:

Roland the headless Thompson gunner

Norway's bravest son

They can still see his headless body stalking through
the night
D

Bm
In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun
D
A

Bm
In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson gun

Bm
D
G
Roland searched the continent for the man who'd
done him in
G
D
A
He found him in Mombassa in a barroom drinking
gin
Bm
D
G
Roland aimed his Thompson gun - he didn't say a
word
G
D
A
Bm
But he blew Van Owen's body from there to
Johannesburg
G
D
A Bm
Roland the headless Thompson gunner...
G
D
A Bm
Roland the headless Thompson gunner...
G
D
A Bm
Roland the headless Thompson gunner...
Bm
D
G
The eternal Thompson gunner, still wandering
through the night
G
D
A
Now it's ten years later but he still keeps up the
fight
Bm
D
G
In Ireland, in Lebanon, in Palestine and Berkeley
G

Patty Hearst heard the burst of Roland's Thompson
gun

And bought it
