You have two coffees
One of them is one coffee too many for you
On a health kick
Trying to lead a middle-aged life
Well, it's either that or drop dead
Wait til you get older than this
And then turn around and tell me I was young for my age
Yeah

And it feels like nineteen seventy-four
Waiting for the waves to come and crash on the shore
But you're far inland
You're in funky denim wonderland
You and David Crosby and a bloke with no hand
You've got hair in places
Most people haven't got brains
Ooh

But it feels like nineteen seventy-four
Syd Barrett's last session, he can't sing anymore
He's gonna have to be Roger now for the rest of his life
Oh

Enough about me, let's talk about you
You were working at the Earth Exchange at half twenty-two
Rebel, Rebel was your favorite song
On the Archway Road 
Where it all belongs
All those molecules of time
That you thought you'd shed forever
All those inches of time
That you thought you could just say bye-bye

And as Nixon left the White House
You could hear people say,
"They'll never rehabilitate that mother
No way."
Yep

Whirry-whirry goes the helicopter out of my way
I've got a president to dump in the void
Ooh

Python's last series and The Guardian said,
"The stench of rotting minds"
But what else could you smell back then?
You didn't have to inhale too hard
You could smell the heads festering in the backyard
There's a baby in a basket and it's taken your name
And one day it'll grow up and say,
"Who are you,
Eh?"

And you say that's where it ended
But I say no no no, it just faded away
August was grey
It feels like nineteen seventy-four
Ghastly mellow saxophones all over the floor
Feels like nineteen seventy-four
You could vote for Labour, but you can't anymore
Feels like nineteen seventy-four
Digging Led Zeppelin in Grimsby
Oh Christ 

PLAYING TECHNIQUE:

Play the E7 with the middle, ring and pinky fingers so that when
you switch to Em7 you can do it by lifting your pinky off the
B string and putting your index finger on the 3rd fret of that
string.

Where you see A(add D)-A or A-A(add D), you should alternate
between these two chords in the order specified, 2 beats per
chord. Sometimes one chord is first, sometimes the other. Do
it until the next indicated chord change.

There are a few places where you'll see A6, then A'. It's hard
to hear in the recording whether this is done consistently or
not (mostly because of the distortion on Tim's guitar). Do it
all the time, or none of the time or where marked, or where
you feel like it. I wouldn't be surprised if Robyn just does
what he feels like at the time.

If you're tough enough, you ought to play the Bm as a full
barre, but you can just leave out the 2 bottom strings if you
have to. I've shown the Bm voicing as a partial barre only.

Overall, the fuzz guitar makes some of the voicings indistinct
enough to be unimportant.
