(From the 1968 Album SHINE ON BRIGHTLY)
Tune down 1/2 step
[Intro]
A G A G
[Verse 1]
B E G#7 C#m
My Prussian-blue electric clock's
B E G#7 C#m
Alarm bell rings, it will not stop
F#m E A
And I can see no end in sight
E F#m
And search in vain by candlelight
Bm7 E
For some long road that goes nowhere
Fdim F#m7
For some signpost that is not there
A G
And even my befuddled brain
A G
Is shining brightly, quite insane
[Verse 2]
B E G#7 C#m
The chandelier is in full swing
B E G#7 C#m
As gifts for me the three kings bring
F#m E A
Of myrrh and frankincense, I'm told
E F#m
And fat old Buddhas carved in gold
Bm E
And though it seems they smile with glee
Fdim C#dim F#m
I know in truth they envy me
A G
And watch as my befuddled brain
A G
Shines on brightly quite insane
[Organ Solo]
F#m E A E F#m
Bm Em Bm Fdim C#dim
F#m
[Interlude]
A G A G
[Verse 3]
B E G#7 C#m
Above all else, confusion reigns
B E G#7 C#m
And though I ask, no one explains
F#m E A
My eunuch friend has been and gone
E F#m
He said that I must soldier on
Bm7 E7
And though the ferris wheel spins 'round
Fdim F#m
My tongue it seems has run the ground
A G
And croaks as my befuddled brain
A G
Shines on brightly, quite insane
[Outro]
A G A G A G A
Shine on, hah, shine on, hah, shine on....
