Biography:
The English rock band Traffic started out with Steve Winwood, Dave Mason, Jim Capaldi, and Chris Wood after Winwood left The Spencer Davis Group. From their beginning, in 1967, they were quite popular in their native England, though success elsewhere was slower in coming. Their first three albums combined psychedelic rock and soul with elements of British folk music, giving them a unique, groundbreaking sound. Their most popular single was Dear Mr. Fantasy, from the album of the same name.

"House For Everyone"
(Dave Mason)
Intro:
(w/tenor sax, 4X; interrupted by guiro first time)
Am Em
/ / / / / / / /
Verse 1:
C
My bed is made of candy floss
Eb
The house is made of cheese
C
It's lit by lots of glowworms
Eb
If I'm wrong correct me please
[repeat intro, 2X]
Verse 2:
The village is a pop-up book
The people wooden dolls
The roads are made from treacle
Think it's time that I moved on
[repeat intro, 2X]
Bridge:
Dm7 G
My boat is half a walnut shell
Dm7 G
The journey will be long
Dm7 G
So I filled the hold with peppermints
Dm7 G
And creamy pink blancmange
F
I sailed away for fifteen days
F#
It never once got dark
F
And came upon two large houses
F#
Set out in a park
Verse 3:
On the door of one was truth
On the other door was lies
Which one should I enter through
I really must decide
[repeat intro, w/lyrics:]
Am Em
The door marked lies had lots of flowers growing 'round outside
Am Em
But looking closer, noticed it was crumbling inside
Verse 4:
The door marked truth was very plain
But stood up very strong
And when I entered thru its door
I knew I wasn't wrong
Coda:
(w/tenor sax and flute)
Cm Ebm [4X]
/ / / / / / / /
(w/bass; start slowing down)
Cm Ebm [2X]
/ / / / / / / /
Cm
