G5One pill makes you larger, and G#5one pill makes you small
And the G5ones that mother gives you, don't doG#5 anything at all
Go ask A#5Alice,C5 when shes D#5ten feet A#5tall. A#5
G5And if you go chasing rabbits, and you G#5know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a G5hookah-smoking Caterpiller hasG#5 given you the call
Call A#5Alice,C5 when D#5she was just A#5small. A#5
F5When men on the chessboard get up and A#5tell you where to go,
And you've F5just had some kind of mushroom, and yourA#5 mind is moving(') '''
Go ask G5Alice, I think she'll G5know.
When G5logic and proportion have G#5fallen slightly dead,
And the G5White Knight is talking backwards, and the G#5Red Queens off her head,
ReA#5memberC5 what the D#5Doormouse A#5said F5>- KeeA#5p yourF5 head, KeeA#5p your heA#5ad
* I play all the chords as standard 2 note power chords in the 5th and 6th
string, except for F5, which I play at the 13 position instead of the 1st.
Keep the beat military! And if there are any chords other than 5ths in
here, I can't hear 'em...
PS. I think the solo is in G Phyrigian, played on a Strat, neck pickup with
just a bit of gain.
PPS. Can anyone tell me what she sings just after the mushrooms' And is she
really smoking Caterpillers' Why'
