Biography:
Procol Harum is a British rock band formed in London, England, in 1967. They contributed to the development of progressive rock, and by extension, symphonic rock. The band's claim to fame is 'A Whiter Shade of Pale', a huge hit in 1967. The band differed from most of the progressive rock bands of the 70s in the relatively prominent blues component to their sound, largely due to the voice and piano of leader Gary Brooker. In the early years, Matthew Fisher's organ and Robin Trower's guitar combined for a unique sound.

"Something Following Me"
(Gary Brooker - Keith Reid)
Intro:
(solo piano, 6/8):
G F C7 G
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Verse 1:
G F
While standing at the junction
C7 G
On 42nd Street
G F
I idly kicked a pebble
C7 G
Lyin' near my feet
Em B7
Whoa, I hear a weird noise
Em B7
Take a look up and down
G F
The cause of the commotion
C7 G
Is right there on the ground
Em Em+7/D#
Imagine my surprise
Em7/D Em6/C#
Thought I'd left it at home yeah
Am
But there's no doubt about it its my
Em Am Em Em Am Em
Own tombstone
Verse 2:
I went into a shop
Bought a loaf of bread
I sunk my teeth into it
Thought I'd busted my head
Oh, I dashed to the dentist
Hey, hey, I got an awful pain, yeah
This man looks in my mouth and screams
This boy's insane
Imagine my surprise
Thought I'd left it at home, yeah
There's a lump in my mouth of my
Own tombstone
Instrumental break:
(abbreviated verse: piano solo over first four lines; guitar solo
from "Imagine my surprise" onward)
Verse 3:
I went in to see a movie
Got the only empty seat
I tried to stretch out in it
Something blockin' my feet
Finally the lights came up
And I could clearly see
A slab of engraved marble
Just starin' up at me
Imagine my surprise
I thought I'd left it at home
There's no doubt I'm sittin on my
Em Am Em [end cold]
Own tombstone
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
