[F#]Lucifer Sam, Siam c[G]at,
A[B]lways sitting by your side
[B]Always b[E]y your side,
T[C]hat cat's something i [G]can't exp[D]lain

Jennifer Gentle you're a witch,
You're the left side
He's the right side oh, no,
That cat's something i can't explain

Lucifer go to sea,
Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat
Somehwere, anywhere,
That cat's something i can't explain

(Keyboard solo:
Best sound if used with 1960's organ:
Cello, with repeat on)

At night prowling sifting sand,
Padding around on the ground
He'll be found when you're around,
That cat's something i can't explain

~MATILDA MOTHER~
-I'm not sure what these B, A, G, F

Hanging in my infant air waiting?
You only have to read the lines of scribbly black,
And everything shines

(Normal verse chords)
For all the time spent in that room,
The dolls house dakrness, old perfume
And fairy stories held me high,
On clouds of sunlight floating by
Oh, oh mother tell me more,
Tell me more

E for outro
~FLAMING~

Al[E]one in the clouds all bl[D]ue,
Lyi[Bm]ng on an ei[A]derdown, yi[E]ppee
You can't see m[A]e but [D]I ca[F]n y[E]ou

Lazing in the foggy dew,
Sitting on a unicorn, no fear
You can't hear me but I can you

Watching buttercups cup the light,
Sleeping on a dandelion, too much
I won't touch you but then I might

Streaming through the starlit skies,
Traveling by telephone
Hey ho here we go,
Ever so high

Alone in the clouds all blue,
Lying on an eiderdown, yippee
You can't see me but I can you
~POW R. TOC H.~
This is a funny song probably the result of too much acid and too much helium. Haha. It
a good song though

~TAKE UP THY STETHOSCOPE & WALK~

[E]

Doctor, doctor I'm in bed,
Doctor, doctor, aching head
Doctor, doctor, gold is lead,
Doctor, doctor, choke on bread
Doctor, doctor, underfed,
Doctor, doctor, gold is lead
Doctor, doctor, Jesus bled,
Doctor, doctor, pain is red
Doctor, doctor, dark doom,
Gruel ghoul, greasy spoon
Used spoon, June gloom

E-0-0-1-1-3-3-5-5-

Music seems to help the pain,
Seems to motivate the brain,
Doctor kindly tell your wife
                             (Go back to riff for verse)
That I'm alive,
Flowers thrive
Realise,
Realise,
Realise

~THE GNOME~
I[D] want to[A] tell you a[D] story 'bout a[C] little[A] man,[C] if I[A] can,

A[D] gnome named[A] Grimble[D] Grumble. And[C] little[A] gnomes stay[C] in their[A] homes,

[G]Eat[D]ing, [Bb7]sleep[C]ing, [F]drink[A7]ing their [D]wine.

He[D] wore a[A] scarlet[D] tunic, a[C] bluegreen[A] hood; it[C] looked quite[A] good.

He[D] had a[A] big a[D]dventure [C]amidst the[A] grass, fresh[C] air at[A] last.

[G]Win[D]ing, [Bb7]dini[C]ng, [F]bid[A7]ing his [D]time.

And[G] then one da[C/G]y, ho[F]oray, a[A/E]nother[E] way for gn[G]omes to [D]say, [G]"Ho[D]oray!"

~CHAPTER 24~
(There is no guitar in this song, but there is a bass and unfortanetly I haven't been
to figure it out)

All movement is accomplished in six stages,
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the your light,
It forms when darkness is increased by one

Change; return success,
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortuene,
Sunset

The time is with the month of winter solstice,
When the change is due to come
Thunder in the Earth, the course of Heaven,
Things cannott be destroyed once and for all

Change; return success,
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune,
Sunset...
Sunrise...

All movement is accomplished in six stages,
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the your light,

Sunrise...

~SCARECROW~
T[D]he black and gre[A]en scarecrow, [C]as ev'ryo[A]ne k[G]nows,
Stood with a[A] bird on his hat and[D] straw ev'r[A]ywhere.
He[D] didn't care.
He[G] stood in a[Am] field where[G] barley[A] grows.
His[D] head did no[A] thinking, his[C] arms didn't[A] mo[G]ve,
Except when the[A] wind cut up rough and[D] mice ran [A]around on the[D] ground.
He[G] stood in a[Am] field where[G] barley[A] grows.
The[D] black and green[A] scarecrow is[C] sadder than[A] me[G]__.
But now he's r[A]esigned to his fate's, 'cause[D] life's not u[A]nkind.
He[D] doesn't mind.
He[G] stood in a[Am] field where[G] barley[A] grows.

~BIKE~
I'[G]ve got a bike, you can ri[C]de it if you like,
I[C]t's got a basket, a bell that rings
And things to make it lo[G]ok good,
I'd gi[D]ve it to you if i could but i borrowed i[G]t
[D]You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
[D]I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I've got a cloak it's a bit of a joke,
There's a tear up the front it's red and black
I've had it for months,
If you think it could look good then i guess it should

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I know a mouse and he hasn't got a house,
I don't know why I call him Gerald
He's getting rather old but he's a good mouse

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I've got a clan of gingerbread men,
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men
Take a couple if you wish they're on the dish

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,
I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I know a room of musical tunes,
Some rhyme some ching most of them are clock work
