STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK - Accordi - Incense And Peppermint
Gestisci
--Key----Delay----Bpm: 72---Guitar--Piano-
#

OK, this has always been credited to John Carter and Tim Gilbert, but
according to the SAC article in _Goldmine_ #359 John Carter wrote lyrics
to SAC (and future Lynyrd Skynyrd) guitarist Ed King's instrumental
track, 'The Happy Whistler'; Tim Gilbert had written other songs with
John Carter before (most notably the Rainy Daze 'That Acapulco Gold',
which hit #70 nationwide before program directors found out what
'Acapulco Gold' was) and was apparently co-credited by mistake.

"Incense and Peppermints"
(Ed King - John Carter)

Verse 1:


Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind

Dead kings, many things I can't define

Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind

Incense and peppermints, the color of time

Chorus:


Who cares what games we choose

Little to win, but nothing to lose

Verse 2 (half-length):

Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns
Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around

Refrain:


Look at yourself, look at yourself
F#m(maj7)/F F#m6/D#
Yeah, yeah

Look at yourself, look at yourself
F#m F#m(maj7)/F F#m7/E A [N.C.]

Verse 3:

To divide this cockeyed world in two
Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do
Beatniks and politics, nothing is new
A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view

[repeat chorus]
