song.
Haven't played it for years, so I re-visited the tune, and here you
go:
Verse:
E C#m F# A E C#m
E C#m F# A C#m E
======================================================================
Turnaround:
A C#M D
A C#m D
A C#m F#
E C#m F# A C#m F#
=====================================================================
Bridge:
C#m F# A B7 E
C#m F# A F# B7
=====================================================================
End: (From "Me again")
E C#m F# A F#
E F# Ab
=====================================================================
Like "Here without you", this is another fine study of the odd, yet
brilliant & gorgeous chord progressions from Gene Clark.
Also Fascinating, is the way Gene could take a very mundane,
straightforward & symetrical chord progression, like "The world turns
all around her", and come up with an equally wonderful song.
The modulations here are very engaging; especially considering that
the song is in the key of E major, and ends on Ab.
A nice simple cakewalk to play; no sweat, no strain.
As far as the questions about arrangement; this is of course a
rough "Preflyte demo", and as mentioned, would sound wonderful given
the full "MTM & TTT Treatment".
I would beef up the drums and percussion, install a Chris Bass line
proper, (A nice descending "Walk down" at the end of the bridge back
to the tonic, B to E, would sound SPLENDID here) and because it's in
the key of "E", a nice 12 string solo in the middle, with your E & B
strings droning would be great.
Cap it off with the odd, yet beautiful counterpoint modal Crosby
harmony, and your good to go.
Very talented songwriter, that boy...
Enjoy!
