(Michelle Gilliam, John Phillips)
Capo 4th fret
1.
GJohn and Mitchy were gettin' kind of itchy
G7Just to leave the folk music behind.
CZal and Denny workin' for a penny,
GTryin' to get a fish on the line.
DIn a coffee house Sebastian sat,
CAnd after every number they'd pass the hat.
GMcGuinn and McGuire just a-gettin' higher in L.A.,
CYou know where that's at.
A# GAnd no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass.
2.
GZally said, "Denny, you know there aren't many,
G7who can sing a song the way that you do."
CDenny said, "Zally, golly, don't you think that I wish,
GI could play guitar like you."
DIn a coffee house they all sat...
CAnd after every number they'd pass the hat.
GMcGuinn and McGuire still a-gettin higher in L.A.,
Cyou know where that's at.
A# GAnd no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass.
3.
GWhen Cass was a sophomore, planned to Go to Swathmore,
G7But she changed her mind one day.
CStandin' on the turnpike, thumb out to hitchhike,
G"Take me to New York right away."
DWhen Denny met Cass he gave her love bumps...
Ccalled John and Zal and that was the Mugwumps.
GMcGuinn and McGuire couldn't get no higher,
Cbut that's what they were aimin' at.
A# GAnd no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass.
4.
GMugwumps, high jumps, low slumps, big bumps...
G7Don't you work as hard as you play.
CMake up, break up, everything is shake up...
GGuess it had to be that way.
DSebastian and Zal formed the Spoonful...
CMichelle, John, and Denny gettin' very tuneful.
GMcGuinn and McGuire just a-catchin' fire in L.A.,
CYou know where that's at.
A# GAnd everybody's gettin' fat except Mama Cass.
5.
GBroke, busted, disgusted, agents can't be trusted,
G7And Mitchy wants to Go to the sea.
CCass can't make it...she says we'll have to fake it...
GWe knew she'd come eventually.
DKeepin' on the American Express card...
Ctent's low rent, but keeping out the heat's hard.
GDuffy's good vibrations and our imaginations,
CCan't Go on indefinitely.
A# GAnd California dreamin' is becomin' a reality...
