Talk Talk chords by The Music Explosion

This alienated rant was a #15 hit for the Music Machine in early 1967.  My
bar band covered it as late as 1975, with me snarling the lead vocal,
whacking on a tambourine, and playing both organ and the detuned low-E
guitar riff at various points in the song.  --AWR

                            (Sean Bonniwell)

 verses is played F#-E but sounds Eb-Db.]
