Gay Cavalier
Richie Havens ft: Pino Daniele

B minorBm A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA (3v)
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G F#m7F#m7 F#7F#7 B minorBm

B minorBm       A augmentedA
The forest got furry...
  G+G      F#7F#7
the desert grew eyes
B minorBm       A augmentedA
mountains got runny...
   G+G        F#7F#7
and lakes turned to skies
B minorBm       A augmentedA
a harvest of pumpinks grew
 G+G     F#7F#7
sequins for ears and I
B minorBm    A augmentedA   G+G F#m7F#m7
sighted for my sanity...
F#7F#7   B minorBm
Gay Cavalier

B minorBm       A augmentedA
A majorA torrent of roses
  G+G      F#7F#7
not tossed by a tear
   B minorBm     A augmentedA
what Nature disposes
   G+G     F#7F#7
man makes disappear
   B minorBm     A augmentedA
one moment's sincerity
  G+G    F#7F#7
smoothly sincere
    B minorBm  A augmentedA   G+G F#m7F#m7
might bring back my sanity...
F#7F#7   B minorBm
Gay Cavalier


If you wanna know...
   A augmentedA       F#7F#7      B minorBm
Je' sto cuntanno ancora 'a rrobba mia and

I don't know
   A augmentedA       F#7F#7         B minorBm
se'a vita e' 'na ciofeca o e' grazie 'e Dio
    A augmentedA   G+G
if you wanna know
  A augmentedA       B minorBm
pe' te nun saccio niente
     A augmentedA     B minorBm
quacche vota so' cuntento
  A augmentedA   G+G     F#m7F#m7  F#7F#7 B minorBm

B minorBm       A augmentedA
The terrible simmetry
  G+G      F#7F#7
tinkles like glass
B minorBm       A augmentedA
the future at Liberty
   G+G      F#7F#7
is freed from the past
   B minorBm      A augmentedA
the mountains and moments
 G+G       F#7F#7
merge with the here
      B minorBm  A augmentedA   G+G  F#m7F#m7
and we're back with our sanity...
F#7F#7   B minorBm
Gay Cavalier

B minorBm    A augmentedA
The window is open,
 G+G      F#7F#7
ajar is the door
  B minorBm      A augmentedA
no more of this groping
    G+G        F#7F#7
we've reached the far shore
   B minorBm      A augmentedA
the land that we searched
    G+G      F#7F#7
for is nearly than near
      B minorBm  A augmentedA   G+G F#m7F#m7
and we're here with our sanity...
F#7F#7   B minorBm
Gay Cavalier

B minorBm       A augmentedA
With genius in genesis...
  G+G    F#7F#7
goblins appear
B minorBm       A augmentedA
but in patches for
     G+G     F#7F#7
penances nothing to fear
B minorBm       A augmentedA
love widely not wisely
  G+G      F#7F#7
all Mankind is dear
      B minorBm  A augmentedA   G+G F#m7F#m7
and the whole is Humanity...
F#7F#7   B minorBm
