Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones

  [E]Please allow me to intro[D]duce myself I'm a [A]man of wealth and [E]taste
  I've been around for a [D]long, long year Stolen [A]many a man's soul and [E]faith
  I was around when Jesus Christ had His moment of doubt and [E]pain
  Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his [E]fate

  [B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
  But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

  [E]I stuck around St. [D]Petersburg When I [A]saw it was time for a [E]change
  I killed the Tzar and his [D]ministers Anas[A]tasia screamed in [E]vain
  I rode a tank, held a [D]gen'ral's rank When the [A]blitzkrieg raged and the [E]bodies stank

  [B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
  But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

  [E]I watched with glee while your [D]kings and queens
  Fought for [A]ten decades for the [E]gods they made
  I shouted out "Who killed the [D]Kennedys?" When [A]after all it was [E]you and me
  Let me please introduce myself I am a man of wealth and [E]taste
  And I lay traps for [D]troubadours Who get [A]killed before they reach Bom[E]bay

  [B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
  But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

  [Instrumental]

  [B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
  But what's [D]confusing you, is just the [A]nature of my [E]game

  [E]Just as every cop is a [D]criminal And [A]all the sinners [E]saints
  As heads is tails, just call me [D]Lucifer 'Cause I'm in [A]need of some re[E]straint
  So if you meet me, have some [D]courtesy Have some [A]sympathy and some [E]taste
  Use all your well-learned politesse Or I'll [A]lay your soul to [E]waste

  [B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
  But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

Ses 3 meilleurs souvenirs du FIUL / Her TOP 3 FIUL memories:

1. J'ai beaucoup aimé la participation de tout le village. L'amour qu'ils y ont mis était incroyable ainsi que l'accueil, la gentillesse et l'hospitalité qu'ils nous ont réservés. Et tout était très bien organisé. Nous, Allemands adorons ça!
2. Jouer avec Gus & Fin et UkeHeidi est un excellent souvenir. Ce sont de grands musiciens. J'étais un peu perdue avec tous ces gens qui parlaient français donc j'ai demandé aux écossais s'ils voudraient jouer. Il a fallu trouver un langage musical commun mais après on s'est éclaté et j'ai vraiment apprécié le moment. Après ça le problème de langue s'est globalement dissipé.
3. Jouer de la musique toute la nuit au feu de camp était super aussi.

1. I loved the participation of the whole little village in this event. Great with how much love they decorated the place and how they welcomed us with great friendlyness and hospitality. And everything was very well organized. We Germans love that!
2. I have great memories of playing with Gus and Fin and Ukeheidi, they are great musicians. With all those french-speaking people around I felt a bit lost and so I asked the scottish guys if they would like to try some music together. It took a bit to find a musical language together but then it was great fun and a performance I really enjoyed. After that the language thing got much easier in general.
3.The playing music all night at the campfire was great also.
