DONKEY RIDES, A PENNY, A GLASS
(Marriott, Laine)
B-side to 'The Universal' (Immediate, 1968)
I think the chords are right, the only bit of tab I could work out
is the intro, the rest is too buried in the mix or impossible (like the guitar solo)
Chords used:
Acoustic guitar (left speaker)
: x02220 : 244222
: 332010 : 320033
: xx0232 : 133211
: 022100
: x46654
The tab for intro and chorus is:
-----------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------|
-------------7\5--5--5--5/7--7--7--5--7/(8)/9--9--9--|
--5/7--7--7--7\5--5--5--5/7--7--7--5--7/(8)/9--9--9--|
--5/7--7--7--5\3--3--3--3/5--5--5--3--5/(6)/7--7--7--|
--3/5--5--5------------------------------------------|
(x2)
I like wasting my days in a caravan,
I like my Uncle Joe what a lovely man,
Well, I love things, I do my best,
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like the rest,
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
So I'll just move along quite naturally.
Summers here and I'll be idling my time away,
Looking for someone to tell me the time of day,
Any make your wish could true come.
( )
Unexpected attacks on your nose,
Can be treated by touching your toes,
Donkey rides, a penny, a glass.
(guitar solo)
Snowflakes falling like leaves in the summertime,
Fishcakes, cabbage and mash, oh, the world is mine,
I love things, I do my best,
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like rest,
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
So I'll just move along quite naturally, yes.
I love things, I do my best,
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like rest,
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
So I'll just move along quite naturally.
I love things, I do my best,
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like the rest,
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
So I'll just move along quite naturally.
(The song fades out on the third line of the last chorus).
