Crystalize Your Mind
The Living Children
Sick of Scott MacKenzie? Here`s a little cautionary tale from 1967
that you can find on `Crystalize Your Mind` part of the `Nuggets of
the Golden State` series on Big Beat records. Recorded and produced by
the melifuously named Leo de Gar Kulka in San Francisco.
Main Riff (repeat throughout, except for bridges):
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-------3h4p3h4p3-------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----5-------------1h3--1--3--1----|
|-s3--------------------------------|
Verse I:
There`s a place called Haight I know, yeah,
`Cause everybody`s told me so, yeah,
Crsytalize Your Mind with an empty heart,
`Cause tryin` it little baby`s been tearin` me apart right now,
Bridge One:
A C
I tried and I tried,
D F
I tried and I tried,
Drum break, back to Main Riff.
Keep you walkin` by my side today,
Cause you can`t get back there no other way,
Keep on droppin`, baby gonna blow your mind,
Things you`re droppin` are keepin you far behind,
Bridge Two:
[A C]
[D F]
[A C]
[D F]
Drum break,
[A C]
[D F]
Repeat Verse I and fade.
Notes:
That hammer-on-pull-off bit in the riff is just a little fluttering
thing on the 3rd and 4th frets of the G string; there must be a name
for it, but I don`t know what it is.
