SOLO:
Unfortunately, Pete plays the solo on either a guitar
tuned to Eb, or the E string tuned down to Eb (or maybe ALL
the guitars tuned down), so if you don't have two guitars you
can either 1) play all chords up a 1/2 step or 2) don't pluck
the low E string on the solo and play it in Eb. This is the
way it's played on record. (In the key of E)

Surrounded by his friends,
He sits so silently and unaware of everything.
Playing poxy pinball, picks his nose and smiles,
Pokes his tounge at everything
I believe in love, but how can men who've never
Seen life be enlightened?
Only if he's cured will his
Spirit's future level ever heighten.

C G Soon the atmosphere was cooler and Tommy gave a lesson.

Outside the house Mr. Simpson announced Sally just had to let him know she loved him
C G And leapt up on the rostrum.
That Sally couldn't go to the meeting. She ran across the stage to the spotlit figure and
C G Brushed him on the face.
He went on cleaning his blue Rolls Royce, Tommy whirled round as a uniformed man
C G Threw her off the stage.
And she ran inside a-weeping.
C G [Repeat CHORUS]
She got to her room and tears splashed the picture
C G Her cheek hit a chair and blood trickled down,
Of her new messiah. Mingling with her tears.
C G Tommy carried on preaching and his voice filled Sally's ears.
She picked up a book of her father's life and She caught his eye. She had to try,
C G Gsus4 G G But he couldn't see through the lights.
Threw it on the fire. Her face was gashed and the ambulance man
Had to carry her out that night.

D G G7 Gash across her face.

Ooooh.
The theme of the sermon was
"Come unto me and love will find a way." Sixteen stitches put her right and her dad said,
So Sally decided to ignore her dad and sneak out anyway. "Don't say I didn't warn you!"
She spent all afternoon getting ready and Sally got married to a rock musician she met in California.
Decided she'd try to touch him. Tommy always talks about the day the disciples all went wild.
Maybe he'd see that she was free and talk to her this Sunday. Sally still carries a scar on her cheek to
Remind her of his smile.
