02-MR. SPACEMAN – Sol M
The Byrds
Woke up this morning
with light in my eyes
And then realized
it was still dark outside
It was a light coming
down from the sky
I don't know
who or why
Must be those strangers
that come every night
Those saucer shaped lights
put people uptight
Leave blue-green footprints
that glow in the dark
I hope they get home
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along
for a ride
Woke up this morning,
I was feeling quite weird
Had flies in my beard,
my toothpaste was smeared
Over my window,
they'd written my name
Said, so long,
we'll see you again
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey, Mr. Spaceman
Won't you please take me along
03-TIFFANY QUEEN – La M
The Byrds
Happiness hit me on the first day that we met
She was sittin' in my kitchen with a face I can't forget
She was lookin' in my direction
and she calling with her eyes
I was trying to do and interview
and telling them all lies
Last year in the summer
with a tiffany lamp over her head
They were ask me what I thought
about the 50's rock'n'roll
Then they got into a limousine
and fell into a hole
I moved into the kitchen
and I quickly fell in love
The warden came along
and asked me what I was thinking of
Last year in the summer
with a tiffany lamp over her head
Well, I grabbed her by the hand
and with a few things I could
The warden said your leaving well,
you've better leave for good
I made it to Tasmania
to buy a devil dog
Well, we met a handsome prince
who turned into a frog
Last year in the summer
with a tiffany lamp over her head
Instrumental (Electric Guitar)
Now we're living out in Malibu
the ocean by our side
Laying in the sunshine
drifting with the tide
Well, happiness is hit me
on the first day that we met
She was sittin' in my kitchen
and a face I can't forget
Last year in the summer
with a tiffany lamp over her head
Over her head
04-TURN, TURN, TURN – Re M
The Byrds
To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose
under heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh,
a time to weep
To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose
under heaven
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones
Together
To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose
under heaven
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain
from embracing
instrumental break
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of peace,
I swear it’s not too late
05-WILD MOUNTAIN THYME – Re M
Byrds
Oh, the summer time is coming
And the leaves are sweetly turning
And the wild mountain thyme
Blooms across the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, go
If you will not go with me
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All across the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, go
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All across the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, go
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All across the purple heather
Will you go, lassie, go
06-HERE WITHOUT YOU
The Byrds
Daytime just makes me feel lonely
At night I can only dream about you
Girl, you're on my mind
Nearly all of the time
It's so hard being here without you
Words in my head keep repeating
Things that you said when I was with you
And I wonder, is it true?
Do you feel the same way too?
It's so hard being here without you
Being here without you
Oh I know it won't last
I'll see you someday
It seems as though that day will come never
But there's one thing I'll swear
Though you're far away
I'll be thinking about you forever
Streets that I walk on depress me
Ones that were happy when I was with you
Still with all the friends I know
And with all the things I do
It's so hard being here without you
Being here without you.
Now you are resting in hell
And I miss you again
Little vertical girl
La, la, la, la,
After I kill you
What should I do?
All of those dark days
for you
I'm so happy,
stupid happy
I just did it
I have done it
I just did it
I'm only waiting for love
Little stupid fool girl
And you don't understand
La, la, la, la
Now you are resting in hell
And I miss you again
Little vertical girl
La, la, la, la,
I'm only waiting for love
Little stupid fool girl
And you don't under
I'm only waiting for love
Little stupid fool girl
And you don't under
I'm only waiting for love
Little stupid fool girl
And you don't under
I'm only waiting for love
Little stupid fool girl
And you don't understand
Death for you [Repeat x7]
