C
Look on yonder misty mountain
See the young monk meditating rhododendron forest
Over dusty years, I ask you
What's it been like being you?
F                  C
Through all levels you've been changing
F                     C
Getting a little bit better no doubt,
F                  C
The doctor bit was so far out.
Bb                  C               Bb            C
Looking through crystal spectacles, I can see you had your fun.

[intro riff 2x]

Doing us paperback reader
Made the teacher suspicious about insanity,
Fingers always touching girl.
Through all levels you've been changing
Getting a little bit better no doubt,
The doctor bit was so far out.
Looking through all kinds of windows, I can see you had your fun.
Looking through all kinds of windows, I can see you had your fun.

Looking through crystal spectacles, I can see you had your fun.

Rebelling against society,
Such a tiny speculating whether to be a hip or
Skip along quite merrily.
Through all levels you've been changing
Elevator in the brain hotel
Broken down a-just as well-a
Looking through crystal spectacles, ah I can see you had your fun.
