CUBIST TOWN
As recorded by Manfred Mann
(From the 1968 Album MIGHTY GARVEY!)

Intro:
Fm

1st Verse:
Fm      Cm
The world was just the world of pollen air
Db                Ab
I wandered 'round and 'round the busy square
Fm                   Db
I turned and floated gently upside down
        Eb   Cm       Fm
And one by one the people gathered 'round

2nd Verse:
Fm             Ab     Fm Db
The rivers and the bridges turned to blue
          Fm      Ab
The thin age of the night is creeping through
Fm
The orange sun is dying on the line
  Db    Ab   Eb C       F  N.C.
And slowly melts into  the sea of wine

Chorus:
F      Bb        Am
Good night, cubist town, good night
      F         Dm
The day has vanished with the night
       Bb          Gm
The light has vanished with the day
       Am      Bb  C  Fm
And the bride  passed me quietly away

3rd Verse:
Fm
The table grows the evening meal's begun
Db        Cm   Db      Ab
The wedding song of love has just been sung
Fm
But there's to much of this, too much for me
 Db        Eb   C     F
I go outside where darkness sets me free

Chorus:
F      Bb        Am
Good night, cubist town, good night
      F         Dm
The day has vanished with the night
       Bb          Gm
The light has vanished with the day
       Am      Bb  C  Fm
And the bride  passed me quietly away

4th Verse:
Fm
I thought I saw the house where you were born
Fm
A yellow house, the color of the corn
Fm
I thought I saw strange beasts out there in the sky
  Db        Fm
But music filled my mind, then they passed by

Chorus:
F      Bb        Am
Good night, cubist town, good night
      F         Dm
The day has vanished with the night
       Bb          Gm
The light has vanished with the day
       Am      Bb  C  Fm
And the bride  passed me quietly away
  Db        Eb   C      G
But music filled my mind, then they passed by

Outro:
F      Bb        C
Good night, cubist town, good night
      Bb        F
The day has vanished with the night
      Bb        C
Good night, cubist town, good night
       Bb        F
The night has vanished with the day
      Bb        C
Good night, cubist town, good night
      Bb        F
The day has vanished with the night
      Bb        C
Good night, cubist town, good night
