(play this part with riff) Picture yourself in a boat on a river With tangerine trees and marmalade skies Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly Fmaj7 (Dm7 C7sus) {optional chords} A girl with caleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes and she's gone
CHORUS:
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds, ahhhhh
Follow her down to a bridge by the fountain Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers That grow so incredibly high Newspaper taxis appear on the shore Waiting to take you away Climb in the back with your head in the clouds And you're gone ...CHORUS
Picture yourself on a train in a station With plasticine porters with looking glass ties Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile The girl with caleidoscope eyes ...CHORUS TWICE

NOTE: The song sounds better by capoing it to a high fret. (from Sgt. Pepper's, 1967)
