«Looking Glass»
(Gary Alexander)
A regional hit in early ’67, but better known as the B-side of «No Fair At
All». I’m told that both sides of the single are different from the LP.
Intro:
E Bm7
/ / / / / / / /
Verse 1:
E G#m7
You say that you’re gonna go
Gmaj7 F#m7 B7
I suppose you know what’s best for you
E G#m7
So go, run with the wind
Gmaj7 F#m7 B7
Taste the sun, feel the spin of worlds
Bm G
Unknown to me, but come home to me
E7 F#7
At your journey’s end I’ll be here
Gmaj7 C
I’ll be near anytime you need me
Am B C B
Need me, I’ll be here
Verse 2:
So go, play in jeweled cities
Play with pretties, tie ribbons in your hair
And if you find the looking glass
Please stay and ask the other side
Who’s that standing there, who’s that standing there
What’s her name
Bm G
Does she still wear morning in her hair
E7 F#7
And smile the same
Gmaj7 C Am B C B
The same… aahh…
[repeat verse 2 with twin fuzz-guitar solo replacing first four lines;
End cold on final B chord]
