Lucifer Sam, Siam cat,
B
Always sitting by your side
B E
Always by your side,
C G D
That cat's something i can't explain
Jennifer Gentle you're a witch,
You're the left side
He's the right side oh, no,
That cat's something i can't explain
Lucifer go to sea,
Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat
Somehwere, anywhere,
That cat's something i can't explain
(Keyboard solo:
Best sound if used with 1960's organ:
Cello, with repeat on)
At night prowling sifting sand,
Padding around on the ground
He'll be found when you're around,
That cat's something i can't explain

Why'd you have to leave me there,
Hanging in my infant air waiting?
You only have to read the lines of scribbly black,
And everything shines
(Use verse chord changes)

Across the stream with wooden shoes,

Bells to tell the king the news

For all the time spent in that room,
The dolls house dakrness, old perfume
And fairy stories held me high,
On clouds of sunlight floating by
Oh, oh mother tell me more,
Tell me more
E for outro
~FLAMING~
E D
Alone in the clouds all blue,
Bm A E
Lying on an eiderdown, yippee
A D F E
You can't see me but I can you
Lazing in the foggy dew,
Sitting on a unicorn, no fear
You can't hear me but I can you
Watching buttercups cup the light,
Sleeping on a dandelion, too much
I won't touch you but then I might
Streaming through the starlit skies,
Traveling by telephone
Hey ho here we go,
Ever so high
Alone in the clouds all blue,
Lying on an eiderdown, yippee
You can't see me but I can you
~POW R. TOC H.~

Doctor, doctor I'm in bed,
Doctor, doctor, aching head
Doctor, doctor, gold is lead,
Doctor, doctor, choke on bread
Doctor, doctor, underfed,
Doctor, doctor, gold is lead
Doctor, doctor, Jesus bled,
Doctor, doctor, pain is red
Doctor, doctor, dark doom,
Gruel ghoul, greasy spoon
Used spoon, June gloom

~THE GNOME~
D A D C A C A
I want to tell you a story 'bout a little man, if I can,
D A D C A C A
A gnome named Grimble Grumble. And little gnomes stay in their homes,
G D Bb7 C F A7 D
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.
D A D C A C A
He wore a scarlet tunic, a bluegreen hood; it looked quite good.
D A D C A C A
He had a big adventure amidst the grass, fresh air at last.
G D Bb7 C F A7 D
Wining, dining, biding his time.
G C/G F A/E E G D G D
And then one day, hooray, another way for gnomes to say, "Hooray!"
D A D C/G A C/G A
Look at the sky; look at the river. Isn't it good?
D A D C/G A C/G A
Look at the sky; look at the river. Isn't it good?
G D Bb7 C F A7 D
Winding, finding places to go.
G C/G F A/E E G D G D
And then one day, hooray, another way for gnomes to say, "Hooray!"
~CHAPTER 24~
(There is no guitar in this song, but there is a bass and unfortanetly I haven't been
to figure it out)
All movement is accomplished in six stages,
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the your light,
It forms when darkness is increased by one
Change; return success,
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortuene,
Sunset
The time is with the month of winter solstice,
When the change is due to come
Thunder in the Earth, the course of Heaven,
Things cannott be destroyed once and for all
Change; return success,
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune,
Sunset...
Sunrise...

~SCARECROW~
D A C A G
The black and green scarecrow, as ev'ryone knows,
A D A
Stood with a bird on his hat and straw ev'rywhere.
D
He didn't care.
G Am G A
He stood in a field where barley grows.
D A C A G
His head did no thinking, his arms didn't move,
A D A D
Except when the wind cut up rough and mice ran around on the ground.
G Am G A
He stood in a field where barley grows.
D A C A G
The black and green scarecrow is sadder than me__.
A D A
But now he's resigned to his fate's, 'cause life's not unkind.
D
He doesn't mind.
G Am G A
He stood in a field where barley grows.
~BIKE~
G C
I've got a bike, you can ride it if you like,
C
It's got a basket, a bell that rings
G
And things to make it look good,
D G
I'd give it to you if i could but i borrowed it
D (let ring)
You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
D
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things
I've got a cloak it's a bit of a joke,
There's a tear up the front it's red and black
I've had it for months,
If you think it could look good then i guess it should
You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things
I know a mouse and he hasn't got a house,
I don't know why I call him Gerald
He's getting rather old but he's a good mouse
You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things
I've got a clan of gingerbread men,
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men
Take a couple if you wish they're on the dish
You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things
I know a room of musical tunes,
Some rhyme some ching most of them are clock work
let's go into the other room and make them work
There you have it ENJOY!
