F6/G: 300011 } play the bottom two (xx0343, xx0011, xx5333, and xx3111)

INTRO
Cm9 F6/G (x3)
(This bit's slightly odd; it's either in 5/4 or it's two and a half bars long but it's hard to say which;
with the slight swing and the syncopated drum fill over the top it's essentially free-form. Your best bet
is to listen to it and make up your own mind!)

GM7 Bm7
People say they want to be free
FM7 CM7
They look at him and they look at me
Am7 Gm7
But it's only themselves they're wanting to see
FM7 CM7
And everybody knows about it.
GM7 Bm7
We talked all night and were all turned on
FM7 CM7
We believe we heard him singing his song
Am7 Gm7
Telling us all there was work to be done
FM7 CM7
And we all sung the chorus of "I Am The Walrus"
GM7 Bm7
Yes, Disneyland has come to town
FM7 CM7
Everyone's dressed and standing around
Am7 Gm7
Alice is wearing her sexiest gown
FM7 CM7
But she doesn't want you to look at her
GM7 Bm7
Beautiful people are queuing to drown
FM7 CM7
They wait for the lifeguard to put on his crown
Am7 Gm7
But he's up at the other end of town
FM7 CM7
Trying to talk to the mirror
KEYBOARD SOLO:
EbM7 DbM7 (repeat)
Cm9 F6/G
FM7 CM7 (these chords have the weird run over them from the intro)
BANANA!
GM7 Bm7
The scientist talks and he knows what he means
FM7 CM7
He sits on the floor and has beautiful dreams
Am7 Gm7
But he gets brought down by a woman who screams
FM7 CM7
But he knows it's only a record, oh yes it is!
GM7 Bm7
His brave new girl stops feeding the ants
FM7 CM7
And looks at him with her septic pants
Am7 Gm7
She still knows how to make him dance
FM7 CM7
And forget about emancipation, it's all imagination
GM7 Bm7
And you and I we sit and hum
FM7 CM7
We know something's got to come
Am7 Gm7
To get us off our endless bum
FM7 CM7
There's probably one in the bathroom or in the hall
(Repeat keyboard solo/intro and descend into a freeform jazz exploration to fade.)
