Last Stage For Silverworld
Kenny Young
From: Last Stage For Silverworld (1973)

| G#m | G#m | G#m | G#m |

G#m            C#m
Once the Hobos come around
     F#                B
Your silver walls come tumblin' down
G#m                C#m
Watch the flashing colors shine
F#                B
Bound to make you color blind

E                    C#m         F#m           E
. Wear the brightest colors that dazzle in the sun
    E                C#m           F#m
And load your Indian chariots with flower-guns
     E                  C#m
With passion fruits and marigolds
    F#m            E
And randy dogs and horny toads
    C#m              F#     B
And babies born with Gemini eyes

E                 C#m     F#m              E
Roll your painted wagons along the rainbow roads
     E             C#m            F#m
With grey unflashy hashy cats and lorry loads
   E           C#m
Of semi-stoney semi-nudes
     F#m                E
With thoughts to lay on silver dudes
    C#m                 F#       B
And ladies blessed with feminine eyes

| G#           | G#m            C#m
  Silverworld,   Once the Hobos come around
     F#                B
Your silver walls come tumblin' down
G#m                C#m
Watch the flashing colors shine
F#               |B           | C#m    F#  | B   G#m | C#m F# | B |
Bound to make you color blind   Hi-ind . I---ind ..    ..  ..   <>

E             C#m        F#m             E
. Wear cosmic cosmetics across your rosy cheeks
    E               C#m              F#m
And bring along mad witches and some fable freaks
E                C#m
Daring gay young delegates
F#m               E
Smoking chains of apple straights
    C#m               F#     B
And gentlemen wearing Bimini ties

E              C#m                F#m              E
Last stage for Silverworld, we're leaving right on time
      E               C#m                    F#m
We'll show 'em how to change their style and make a rhyme
   E                C#m
To bite a fruit and raise a tree
   F#m             E
To play a flute in harmony
    C#m             F#         B
And feel in general chim-i-ney high

| G#           | G#m            C#m
  Silverworld,   Once the Hobos come around
     F#                B
Your silver walls come tumblin' down
G#m                C#m
Watch the flashing colors shine
F#               |B           | C#m    F#  | B   G#m |
Bound to make you color blind   Hi-ind . I---ind ..    
          E                                            B
Would you care to take a ride up through the Meadow of Content
      E                  B            A              B   
Where birds of faith fly sideways and hope is heaven-sent
 
| G#   | G#m            C#m
  ----   Once the Hobos come around
     F#                B
Your silver walls come tumblin' down
G#m                C#m
Watch the flashing colors shine
