The Fat Angel (1969)
Jefferson Airplane
Bless Its Pointed Little Head
The first guitar (which Jack actually played) is playing a transition of a D5 chord,
tuned to drop D. It’s like this
e|--D5------Csus-------------|
B|---------------------|
G|--7-7-x-5-5-5-5--5-5-|
D|--7-7-x-5-5-5-5--5-5-|
A|--5-5-x-5-5-5-5--5-7-|
D|---------------------|
That’s a rough representation of the rhythm, but you’ll get it as soon as you listen to
song. The song repeats those two chords over and over. The 2nd guitar (Paul) is just
feedback and weird noises in what might be the shape of the D5 chord. The 3rd guitar
is soloing in D mixolydian.
He will bring happiness in a pipe
he'll ride away on his silver bike
and apart from that
he'll be so kind in consenting to blow your mind
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
He will bring orchids for my lady; the perfume will be an excellent style
and apart from that he'll be so kind in consenting to blow your mind
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
(solo in D mixolydian)
He will bring happiness in a pipe
he'll ride away on his silver bike
and apart from that
he'll be so kind in consenting to blow your mind
Fly Jefferson Airplane gets you there on time
Fly Jefferson Airplane gets you there on time
(solo in D mixolydian)
He will bring orchids for my lady; the perfume will be an excellent style
and apart from that he'll be so kind in consenting to blow your mind
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
Fly Translove Airways gets you there on time
We are flying at an altitude of 39,000 feet
Captain High at your service
