Jardine/Mike Love)
(original key: Eb)
D.........................................G...........................D
Don't go near the water, don't you think it's sad
D.................................................G..................A.......D
What's happened to the water, our water's going bad
D............D/C#....D/B..........D/A
Oceans, rivers, lakes and streams
G...........................................D
Have all been touched by man
D.................D/C#....D/B....D/A
The poison floating out to sea
G........................A..........D
Now threatens life on land
D........................................G.......D
Don't go near the water, ain't it sad
D.................................................G..............D
What's happened to the water, it's going bad
G.........................................D.......................Bm
Don't go near the water, don't go near the water
D.........................................................Bm
Toothpaste and soap will make our oceans a bubble bath
D.................................Bm
So let's avoid an ecological aftermath
D.......................Bm.............................D
Beginning with me, beginning with you
D.............D/C#......D/B...D/A
Don't go near the water
G.......................D
To do it any wrong
D................D/C#.......D/B...D/A
To be cool with the water
....G....................A..........D
Is the message of this song
D.......................................G.........D

Long Promised Road (Carl
Wilson/Jack Rieley)
Cmaj7.....................Em................................F
So hard to answer future's riddle when ahead is seeming so far
behind
Cmaj7......................Em.......................................F
So hard to laugh a child-like giggle when the tears start to
torture my mind
Em/G.......................Dm...................F
So hard to shed the life of before, to let my soul automatically
soar
..........C.......................F
But I hit hard at the battle that's confronting me, yeah
C.................................F
Knock down all the roadblocks a-stumbling me
C..............................Dm....................C/E...............F
Throw off all the shackles that are binding me down
Cmaj7...........................Em.........................F
Sew up the wounds of evolution and the now starts to get in my
way
Cmaj7.......Em.....................................F
So what if life's a revelation if the mind speaks of only today
Em/G......................Dm...............................F
So real, the pain growing in my soul of climbing up to reality's
goal
F/C
Long promised road
Dm6/F................................Em7.........................Am7/E..Em7/A..Am7
Trail starts at dawn carries on to the season's ending
F/C
Long promised road
Dm6/F....................................Em7.............Am7/E..Em7/A..Am7
Flows to the source, gentle force, never ending, never ending
Cmaj7.......Em......................................................F
So hard to lift the jeweled sceptre when the weight turns a smile
to a frown
Cmaj7.........Em..................................................F
So hard to drink of passion nectar when the taste of life's
holding me down
Em/G........................Dm..........................F
So hard to plant the seed of reform to set my sights on defeating
the storm

Take A Load Off Your Feet
(Alan Jardine/Gary Winfrey)
(original key: B)
A..D.............................A................D...A.............D...................A..................D
I do them when I'm down in the tub with avocado cream they'll
take a rub
..............A....................D...............A............D.........A........................E..........A
They wrinkle like a-raisins if I stay too long I wouldn't want to
do it wrong
A............D.......................A...........D....A...............D..........................A..........D
They'll put you in the driver's seat and to the table when you
want to eat
A.......................D...............A......................D......E7(+G)
But when you go to sit down in your chair something else has got
to put you there
D...................E...................A
Take good care of your feet, Pete
..........D....................E......................A
You better watch out what you eat, Pete
D..................C#m..............B7....................................E7
Better take care of your life 'cause nobody else will
A..............D..........................A.........D.....A....................D.......................A................D
They'll twinkle when you fall in love and put you there when you
jump up above
..............A......................D......................A.................D......A....................E........A
When you're on the spot, get them right under you, one, then the
other too
...........F#m.......................................C#m
If you want to do the right thing for them
........F#m.........................C#m
Just take a walk in the grass
........F#m....................................C#m
But don't you catch yourself fallin'
.......Bm7...............................E7
Or steppin' on a piece of glass
A..........D.....................A................D......A................D........................A..................D
Pete knows all the treacherous foes, the fallen arches and the
cramp in the toes
A..................D.........................................A...........D.............A....................E.............A
He went to H. E. L. P. and got some sandals new and does the yoga
asanas too
D...........E.....................A
Take a load of your feet Pete
...........D..................E.......................A
You better watch out what you eat
D..................C#m..............B7.....................................E7
Better take care of your life 'cause nobody else will

Student Demonstration Time
Based on "Riot in Cell Block Number 9" by Jerry Leiber
& Mike Stoller
New lyrics by Mike Love
................A
Starting out with Berkeley Free Speech and later on at People's
Park
The winds of change fanned into flames student demonstrations
spark
Down to Isla Vista where police felt so harassed
They called the special riot squad of the L. A. County Sheriff
..........................D....................................A
Well there's a riot going on, there's a riot going on
..................E........................D.................................A........E
There's a riot going on, student demonstration time
A
The violence spread down South to where Jackson State brothers
Learned not to say nasty things about Southern policemen's
mothers
Nothing much was said about it and really next to nothing done
The pen is mightier than the sword, but no match for a gun
..........................D....................................A
Well there's a riot going on, there's a riot going on
..........................E.....................D.....................................................A..E
Well there's a riot going on 'cause it's student demonstration
time
A
America was stunned on May 4, 1970
When rally turned to riot up at Kent State University
They said the students scared the Guard though the troops were
battle dressed
Four martyrs earned a new degree - The Bachelor of Bullets
I know we're all fed up with useless wars and racial strife
But next time there's a riot, well, you best stay out of sight
..........................D....................................A
Well there's a riot going on, there's a riot going on
..........................E.......................D..................................A.......E
Well there's a riot going on, student demonstration time
A.........D.............................A..............D
Stay away when there's a riot going on
A.........D.............................A..............D
Stay away when there's a riot going on

Feel Flows (Carl Wilson/Jack
Rieley)
C.................Em7..............F......................C.......G.............F
Unfolding, enveloping missiles of soul recall senses sadly
C...................Em7.................F.....................C....G......................F
Mirage-like, soft blue-like lanterns below to light the way
gladly
C/E..........Em7/D....................F/C
Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
C................G/B.................F/A
Where the wind withers memory
C.................G..................................F
Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away
Cm7/Eb
Feel flows (White puff glistening shadowy flows)
F
Feel goes (Black puff glistening shadowy flows)
C.................Em7................F.......................C.......G............F
Unbending, never ending tablets of time record all the yearning
C.................Em7.................F....................C....G..........F
Unfearing, all-appearing message divine eases the burning
C/E..........Em7/D..............F/C
Whether willing witness waits at my mind
C.............G/B...................F/A
Whether hope dampens memory
C................G................................F
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Cm..F/C..Cm..F/C..Cm..F/C..Cm7..F/C
Cm..F/C..Cm..F/C..Cm..F/C..Cm7..F/C
C..............Em7....................F........................C....G................F
Encasing, all embracing wreath of repose engulfs all the senses
C...............Em7..............F..................................C....G........F
Imposing, unclosing thoughts that compose retire the fences
C/E.........Em7/D..................F/C
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
C.............G/B..................F/A
Whether harps heal the memory
C.................G.........................F
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
C.................G...............................F
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
C................G...................................F
