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

Good night, cubist town, good night
