=================================================
SPECIAL CHORD DIAGRAMS:
Cadd9 =         x-3-2-0-3-0
Dm/F  =         x-x-3-2-3-1
using fingers = ----3-2-4-1 (where 1 = index finger).
Note: this variation is easier that the normal "Dm"
when trying to add the "F" on the "D" string with the little finger.

[Verse 1]
A           A7        F#m       Dm/F
Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
     A         A7        D         F
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
A        A7             F#m          Dm/F
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
  A            A7        F#m      Dm/F   Dm/C
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Bb                    Cadd9
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
D7                 Bb
Towering over your head.
Cadd9                      G                          D
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes, and she's gone.


[Chorus]
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  A
  Ahhhh, Ahhhh...


[Verse 2]
A          A7       F#m          Dm/F
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain,
      A             A7         D           F
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies.
A        A7            F#m            Dm/F
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
     A           A7     F#m     Dm/F   Dm/C
That grow so incredibly high.

Bb               Cadd9
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
D7                   Bb
Waiting to take you away.
Cadd9                       G                              D
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds, and you're gone.


[Chorus]
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  A
  Ahhhh, Ahhhh...


[Verse 3]
A           A7        F#m        Dm/F
Picture yourself on a train in a station,
     A          A7           D             F
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties.
A        A7         F#m          Dm/F
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
    A           A7         F#m    Dm
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.


[Chorus] (repeat & fade)
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
  G           C        D
  Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
