Wonderland

• Dbm

The lyrics to this song were really difficult to get by ear
and the mixing on the track makes it hard to decipher as the vocals
Butt I tried, it is based on
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures In Wonderland just as Jefferson Airplane
had done a number of similar subject the year before.I think I nailed
the lyrics too by trying to relate everything to characters in the story. 
hope to put more Giles Giles and Fripp pre Crimson folk on here. 
Play Dbm as a barre chord The song sits on the sequence Dbm F# Dbm F#m 
These are, as with other tabs I posted, probably the first lyrics
for a song online too.

(pretty much a voice solo I can't write it all out but if you listen to 
the song you can get it, the solo becomes duo as presumably both Peter
and Michael are singing in this scat solo)
