                   LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
             KENNY VANCE AND THE PLANOTONES

INTRO:  C    Am    F    G7 - play over and over until 
                             Verse comes in.   

VERSE:
     C          Am              F            G7
At Erasmus Hall high school we used to harmonize
C                   Am       F           G7
Me and Frankie and Adam and two Italian guys
F                G7          C               Am
We were singing oldies but they were newies then
     F                                 G7
And today when I play my old 45's I remember when

VERSE:
     C             Am           F          G7
We practiced in a subway, in a lobby or a hall
C             Am              F              G7
Crowded in a doorway singing do waps to the wall
     F                G7            C               Am
And if we went to a party and they wouldn't let us sing
      F                                  G7
We'd lock ourselves in the bathroom and nobody could get in


CHORUS:
G               C              Am      F             G7
'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
   C              Am        F           G      C  Am  F  G7
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost found   ooooh


BRIDGE:
         F                  G7                 C                C7
And the girls would gather 'round us and our heads would really swell
      F                G7                C              C7
We'd sing songs by the Moonglows, the Harptones and the Dells
     F                          C              Am
And when we sang sincerely, we really sang it high
      D7                        F                   G  Ab7
Even though it was falsetto we almost reached the sky


VERSE:
       C#           Bbm           F# Ab7
We've sung a lot of changes since 19 55
       C#          Bbm               F#           Ab7
And a lot of bad arrangements we've tried to harmonise
     F#                 Ab7         C#               Bbm
Now they've turned into oldies but they were newies then 
      F#                                   Ab7       A7
And today when I play those old 45's I remember when


CHORUS:
                 D            Bm      G              A7
'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
   D             Bm         G          A7     
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ... 
 D              Bm      G7           A7
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
  D              Bm         G          A7     
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ...
 D              Bm      G7           A7
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
  D              Bm         G          A7     D
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost found

NOTE: Depending on Kenny Vance and the Planotones mood 
they sometimes change the ending up. They will use 
parts from two other doo-wop songs. 
In that case play D Bm G A7 over and over until end.

These are the additional lyrics they will use:

VERSE: 
Wooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oh
You are an angel
Angel divine
You're sent from heaven
You're really mine
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh, oh my darling
Lorraine

*VERSE:
Oh what a night
This is the night
This is the night
This is the night for love

Sing the second VERSE* 6 times - then fade out....
