DONKEY RIDES, A PENNY, A GLASS
(Marriott, Laine)

B-side to 'The Universal' (Immediate, 1968)

I think the chords are right, the only bit of tab I could work out
is the intro,  the rest is too buried in the mix or impossible (like the guitar solo)

Chords used:

Acoustic guitar (left speaker)

A:   x02220  F#m:  244222
C:   332010  G:    320033
D:   xx0232  F:    133211
E:   022100  
C#m: x46654

The tab for intro and chorus is:

    A          C          D                 E

A      C#m        D         F#m          G        A
I like wasting my days in a caravan, 
A      C#m      D          F#m           G        A
I like my Uncle Joe what a lovely man,

      A                C
Well, I love things, I do my best,
  D                        E
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like the rest,
       A               C   
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
   D                          E
So I'll just move along quite naturally.

A                        D
Summers here and I'll be idling my time away,
A                      D
Looking for someone to tell me the time of day,
C             G          F    C         G
Any make your wish could true come.
F                                       (F F# G G#)
Unexpected attacks on your nose,
A
Can be treated by touching your toes,
D      C        G        D
Donkey rides, a penny, a glass.

D
(guitar solo)

C G

A          C#m          D             F#m              G       A
Snowflakes falling like leaves in the summertime,
A          C#m         D             F#m               G       A
Fishcakes, cabbage and mash, oh, the world is mine,

A                C
I love things, I do my best,
  D                        E
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like rest, 
       A               C
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
   D                          E
So I'll just move along quite naturally, yes.

A                C
I love things, I do my best,
  D                        E
I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like rest,
       A               C
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
   D                          E
So I'll just move along quite naturally.
 
A                C

I eat, sleep and laugh and cry just like the rest,
       A               C 
What becomes of me, is meant to be,
   D                          E           
So I'll just move along quite naturally.

(The song fades out on the third line of the last chorus).
