                 "Wasn't It A Bit Like Now (Parallel '23)"
                              (Terry Kirkman)

Intro:

	F7 F#7 G7        [5X; start to fade 3rd time]

Verse:

	Bb
	Silly bubbles effervesce
	        F7
	In the mothball smell of a beaded dress
	The "Oh, you kid"s, the marathons
	     Bb          Gb7       F7
	The bathtub gin, hungover dawns
	     Bb
	The round-framed picture, the flat straw hat
	     F7
	The long-nosed roadster at a mile a minute flat
	The bell-bottom pants, the fine silk vest
	        [N.C.]
	Are all tucked away in her cedar chest

Chorus:

	     (F7)
	Ah-ha-ha   Ah-ha-ha
	                F7 E7 F7
	Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha  ha-ah-ah
	                     Bb
	Wasn't it a bit like now
	             F7
	Huh Mom, huh Dad?
	Are all the memories really gone
	               Bb
	Gone   of the best darn times
	     Gb9          F9
	I'll bet you ever had

	             Bb
	Instead of "groovy" it was "mean"
	And jeepers, it's wild
	Eb                        Edim
	It just doesn't seem that different now
	    Bb             /A        /Ab     G7
	The why's are the same, it's just a question of how
	Eb                      Edim
	Doesn't it seem a little bit like now
	   Bb        /A     /Ab       G7
	I pose this question to your arching brow
	    C7  F7     Bb
	Huh Mom,   huh Dad?

Bridge:

	   Bb
	Cosmetic progress intensifies
	    F7
	The so-cool look in my baby's eyes
	The far-out kids, the kicks they're on
	 Bb [N.C.]
	Obsolete sins, new world's dawn

	       Bb
	Three pictures for a quarter in your Carnaby hat
	F7
	Jet-propelled cars on the Bonneville flats
	Slender legs in their paisley best
	    [N.C.]
	All tucked away in her mini-dress

	[repeat chorus]

	[repeat intro to fade]
