Heart Break Hotel
Max-intensity Southern metal with 1970s Southern rock revival grit and modern metal punch, tracked like a wet bathroom room: drop-tuned distorted power chords, thick bass, tight punchy drums, raw blues harmonica leads, Hammond organ/piano accents, electro-swing brass stabs, R&B syncopation, orchestra-jazz voicings, blues-rock swagger, melodic arena-rock hooks, bluegrass rock pickin’, gang vocals, tape saturation, light reverb, and overdrive, Bridge opens to harmonica-driven atmosphere over clean guitar; outro fades on riff with extended harmonica improvisation
Each day I hang around this heart – break hotel Each night I’m proppin up the door The footman’s staring like he’s got things to tell Well, I ain’t breakin up no law My ladylove is sweatin here day and night I gotta see her yes I must She’s doing things that ain’t especially right She’s gotta do it for the dust Oh lady lady brings me down She’s always foolin around boy Shell listen maybe Cos this time She might not have a dime boy Oh baby baby come my way And it’ll be O.K. yeah Hey listen it will be O.K. Hey listen maybe O.K. The hours pass and I can’t move I still wait Tonight might well be our last chance She gotta make her mind before its too late She gotta listen now for once
