USE A CAPO IN THE 2ND FRET (for those who can't figure out why it doesn't match up)
[Verse]
A7
John and Mitchie were gettin' kind of itchy
A7
Just to leave the folk music behind
D7
Zal and Denny workin' for a penny
A7
Tryin' to get a fish on the line
E7
In a coffee house Sebastian sat
D7
And after every number they'd pass the hat
A7
McGuinn and McGuire just a-gettin' higher
D7
In L.A., you know where that's at
C7 A7
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass
[Verse]
A7
Zally said "Denny, you know there aren't many
A7
Who can sing a song the way that you do, let's go south"
D7
Denny said "Zally, golly, don't you think that I wish
A7
I could play guitar like you"
E7
Zal, Denny and Sebastian sat (at the Night Owl)
D7
And after every number they'd pass the hat
A7
McGuinn and McGuire still a-gettin higher
A7 D7
In L.A., you know where that's at
C7 A7
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass
[Verse]
A7
When Cass was a sophomore, planned to go to Swarthmore
A7
But she changed her mind one day
D7
Standin' on the turnpike, thumb out to hitchhike
A7
"Take me to New York right away"
E7
When Denny met Cass he gave her love bumps
D7
Called John and Zal and that was the Mugwumps
A7
McGuinn and McGuire couldn't get no higher
A7 D7
But that's what they were aimin' at
C7 A7
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass
[Verse]
A7
Mugwumps, high jumps, slow slumps, big bumps
A7
Don't you work as hard as you play
D7
Make up, break up, everything is shake up
A7
Guess it had to be that way
E7
Sebastian and Zal formed the Spoonful
D7
Michelle, John, and Denny gettin' very tuneful
A7
McGuinn and McGuire just a-catchin' fire
A7 D7
In L.A., you know where that's at
C7 A7
And everybody's gettin' fat except Mama Cass
[Verse]
A7
Broke, busted, disgusted, agents can't be trusted
A7
And Mitchie wants to go to the sea
D7
Cass can't make it, she says we'll have to fake it
A7
We knew she'd come eventually
E7
Greasin' on American Express cards
D7
Tent's low rent, but keeping out the heat's hard
A7
Duffy's good vibrations and our imaginations
A7 D7
Can't go on indefinitely
C7 A7
And California dreamin' is becomin' a reality
[Outro]
