FAIRPORT CONVENTION
"IT"S ALRIGHT MA, IT'S ONLY WITCHCRAFT"
FAIRPORT CONVENTION (1968)
NC
Looking through the window
Lets see which way the wind blows
It's seems as though a hurricane is due today
Sunny on the outside
Stormy on the inside
Stormy weathers always best for making hay.

********
A
Here come Everlasting
D
Looks like he's been fasting
A
With his friends in the den where directors roll
A
Like a bandarillo
D
With his cigarillo
A
Robs the rich, robs the rest, brings it all back home
G
Please don't get us wrong man
C
This is just a song man
D
No matter what we say

Am
In comes Saville
D
Had his fill of travel
Am D
Had a bite on the flight, just touched down today
Am
Lookin' drawn and haggard

Through the door he staggered
Am
With a sound that he found over Frisco way
G
Please don't get us wrong man
C
This is just a song man
D
No matter what we say
