Tuning: E A D G B E
Song For Insane Times - Kevin Ayers (from Joy of a Toy) My first submission. Standard Tuning Cm9 : x30343 } These are the intro and solo chords; I tend to pick at the top 4 strings and not F6/G: 300011 } play the bottom two (xx0343, xx0011, xx5333, and xx3111) EbM7: x65333 } DbM7: x43111 } GM7 : 320002 Bm7 : x24232 FM7 : xx3210 CM7 : x32000 Am7 : x02010 Gm7 : 353333 INTRO Cm9 F6/G (x3) (This bit's slightly odd; it's either in 5/4 or it's two and a half bars long but it's hard to say which; with the slight swing and the syncopated drum fill over the top it's essentially free-form. Your best bet is to listen to it and make up your own mind!) +-1-0-----------------+ +-----1---------------+ +-------2-------------+ +---------3-----------+ +-----------2---------+ +-------------3-0-----+ +-----------------1-0-+
GM7People say they Bm7want to be free FM7They look at him and they CM7look at me Am7But it's only themselves they're Gm7wanting to see FM7And everybody knows aCM7bout it.
GM7We talked all night and were Bm7all turned on FM7We believe we heard him CM7singing his song Am7Telling us all there was Gm7work to be done FM7And we all sung the CM7chorus of "I Am The Walrus"
GM7Yes, Disneyland has Bm7come to town FM7Everyone's dressed and CM7standing around Am7Alice is wearing her Gm7sexiest gown FM7But she doesn't want you to CM7look at her
GM7Beautiful people are Bm7queuing to drown FM7They wait for the lifeguard to CM7put on his crown Am7But he's up at the Gm7other end of town FM7Trying to talk to the CM7mirror
KEYBOARD SOLO: EbM7 DbM7 (repeat)
Cm9FM7 F6/GCM7 (these chords have the weird run over them from the intro) BANANA!
GM7The scientist talks and he Bm7knows what he means FM7He sits on the floor and has CM7beautiful dreams Am7But he gets brought down by a Gm7woman who screams FM7But he knows it's only a CM7record, oh yes it is!
GM7His brave new girl stopBm7s feeding the ants FM7And looks at him with her CM7septic pants Am7She still knows how to maGm7ke him dance FM7And forget about emanciCM7pation, it's all imagination
GM7And you and I wBm7e sit and hum FM7We know something'CM7s got to come Am7To get us off our Gm7endless bum FM7There's probably one in the CM7bathroom or in the hall
(Repeat keyboard solo/intro and descend into a freeform jazz exploration to fade.)
