The Trip chords by Donovan

Intro:
F7

Verse 1:
F7
We was a-d-d-d-drivin' d-downtown L.A.,

F7
About a-midnight hour

F7
And it almost b-b-blew my mind

F7
I got caught in a coloured shower

F7
All those lights were t-t-twinkling on Sunset

F7
I saw a sign in the sky

F7
It said, "T-t-t-trip a t-trip, I trip, trip,"

F7
I couldn't keep up up if I tried

Verse 2:

F7   C7
Ah, we stepped down to reality company

C7
To get some instant sleep

    F7
And the driver turned, I said, "Welcome back"

F7
He smiled and he said, "Beep beep"

F7
What goes on? Chick-a-chick

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

F7
What goes on all around me

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

Verse 3:

F7
When in should come-a my dream woman

F7
She got sequins in her hair

F7
Like she stepped out off of a Fellini film

F7
She sat in a white straw chair

F7
But I thought I'd take a second look

F7
Just to see what I could see

F7
And my scene had popped out like a bubble does

Verse 4:

F7
There was nobody there but me

     C7
I said, "Girl, you drank a lot of drink-me

C7
But you ain't in a Wonderland

      F7
You know I might-a be there to greet you, child

F7
When your trippin' ship touches sand."

F7
What goes on? Chick-a-chick

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

F7
What goes on? Chick-a-chick

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

Verse 5:

F7
A silver goblet of wine is-a to be

F7
Held in a bejewelled glove

F7
And her knights they toast the tournament

F7
The falcons they fly above

F7
And the queen will a drink of the dew tonight

F7
But the jester she cries alone

F7
Because Merlin he spoke of an instant spell


F7
To make the devil's white knights moan

Verse 6:

   C7
And-a all in all, the seagull said

C7
"As I look to where I've been

  F7
The whole wide human race

F7
Has a-taken far too much Methedrine"

F7
What goes on? Chick-a-chick

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

F7
What goes on? So near

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

F7
Yeah well, come on

Guitar Solo:
F7  C7  F7

Verse 7:

C7 F7
We sat in a velvet jewel case

F7
With sparkles everywhere

F7
And Julian he sat on a diamond ring

F7
And-a talked of the days gone by

F7
We spoke of a common kaleidoscope

F7
And the pros and the cons of Zen

F7
And he spoke and-a said for a piece of cake

F7
He really did have a yen

Verse 8:

   C7
Bobby Dylan he sat "the Mad Hatter"

C7
A broken hour glass in his hand

   F7
And-a Joannie sat in a white lace

F7
Looking cool with a black lace fan

F7
What goes on? Chick-a-chick

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know

F7
What goes on? Yes please tell me

F7
What goes on? I really wanna know
