Carnival Song/Hi Lily Hi Lo (Buckley)/(Deutch)

TIM BUCKLEY >From Dream Letter Live In London 1968

C: x3 C/B: x2 C/A: x0 C/G: 3x CaddD: x2303x F6: x Dm/C: x3 Fsus2: x

This may not be exact, (it's hard to transcribe a 12 String guitar when you don't have one) but it sounds okay. The actual is somewhere high up on the neck (I don't Feel like finding out where).

If anyone knows what the lyric is that I have written as "More? see the people pass Lily", please let me know.

Introduction (spoken)

If you're ever in New York...(Is it a girl?) If you're ever in New York, there's not very Many carnivals going on And that may not be much, but uh... If you're used to a carnival every once in a while Then New York doesn't have it Then you gotta write a carnival song But that don't really make it either 'Cause what's a song without a carnival?
