From Goodbye And Hello, 1967
*****
Okay, here goes…This is played capoed at the first fret.
The chords for the ‘O the new children’ parts are all the same.
Listen to the song to find out how it goes.
*****
Am D
The antique people are down in the dungeons
Am D
Run by machines and afraid of the tax
Am D
Their heads in the grave and their hands on their eyes
Am G
Hauling their hearts around circular tracks
F C
Pretending forever their masquerade towers
G Gsus4
Are not really riddled with widening cracks
G
And I wave goodbye to iron
F Gm
And smile hello to the air
Gm F Eb
O the new children dance I am young
D Gm F
All around the balloons I will live
Eb D Gm
Swaying by chance I am strong
F Eb D
To the breeze from the moon I can give
Gm F Eb
Painting the sky You the strange
D Gm F
With the colors of sun Seed of day
Eb D Gm
Freely they fly Feel the change
F Eb D Gm / F / E D G
As all become one Know the Way, know the Way
G / / / (x2)
G C
The velocity addicts explode on the highway
G C
