Berkeley Open Computing Facility Lines: 125 Message-ID: References: NNTP-Posting-Host: tornado.berkeley.edu Keywords: Paul Simon, Garfunkel, SIMP, Kodachrome This trasncription is not entirely complete and may need editing! I can't really take credit for this song cause Lara Hughes typed it up and mailed it to me,but she said it was OK to post it. _ I think part of the song is missing (the ending?) and I think some of the chord changes may be slightly off, but don't know the song well enough to fix it or even be sure it needs fixing. _ If you can: PLEASE fix it and send it back to me and/or repost! (I mean really minor stuff, like the ending "Momma don't take..." or if the chord is typed over the wrong syllable!) _ Stupidity Induced Music Page format:_ . KODACHROME By Paul Simon . F F7 Bb When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school Gm C7 F Gm It's a wonder I can think at all. C7 F F7 Bb (is there a riff here?) And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none, Gm C7 F I can read the writing on the wall. _ Chorus: . F7 Bb D7 (G7) Cm F . Kodachrome, They give us those nice bright colors, . Bb Eb [Cm] . They give us the greens of summers, . C F Bb D G . Makes you think all the world's a sunny day. Oh yeah, . Cm F Bb Eb . I got a Nikon camera, I love to take a photograph, . Eb C7 F Bb . So momma, don't take my Kodachrome away. . F C7 Bb If you took all the girls I knew when I was single Gm C7 F Gm And brought them all together for one night, C7 F F7 Bb I know they'd never match my sweet imagination, Gm C7 F And ev'rything looks worse in black and white. _ (Chorus) _________Please edit this song if you can and send it to me! Thanks, Sennet. Chords used: SIMPed by Lara S.

"Do you believe in love") J Geils Centerfold Sammy Hagar-Your Love is Driving Me Crazy Pretenders from "Learning to crawl" Eddie Money Two Tickets to Paradise, other hits. Also I would like ASCII versions of songs that have been posted in Chordpro. _ I intend to keep posting songs as I get them typed. I have tons of books and will take requests if you send me a song that I want in a format I can use Incidentally, a while back I already typed a bunch in a weird format that I would standardize for you (it's a chore) if you need them. However, I don't really have the time to reformat them unless you are willing to fill one of my requests. I'll send any/all of what I have to you if you'll send me and of the above songs in an easy to play format. Some of the songs I could reformat: . Billy Joel It's Still Rock and Roll to me . Billy Joel She's Got a Way . Cat Stevens Wild World (and others) . Cindi Lauper Time after time . Elton John Crocodile Rock . Paul Davis '65 Love Affair . Jim Croce I got a name in D I believe I've already posted American Pie, Can't keep it in, My Life, How Can I Tell You,and Baby I love your way, (all in SIMP) I still have those and others if you missed the posts. Also, I have a couple songs that I changed a lot after they were posted on the net (i.e. chords put with every line or lyrics corrected) I can post these if there is an interest: We can work it out in D (diff lyrics) But I might Die Tonight (not in chordpro) Moonshadow Leader of the band Lookin' out my backdoor Down on the corner Proud Mary Old Time R&R in E Twist and Shout in D (diff key?) Let it be Pink Houses (Unless the song is _really_ easy these songs are SIMP: chords with every line, printable on 1 page, chord charts. This makes it easy for beginners to practice. (many songs I entered also have easier chord substitutions.) _ Calling Bill Clinton a tax-and-spend "Liberal" is almost as funny as the "environmental" president asking for "trust' _ "It's never too late to have a happy childhood" (Tom Robbins) /8\)9&$%@/@*%!{\%$(#@ sennet@OCF.berkeley.edu *(&#*@|&^?#$%"\&^
