"Midnight Confessions"
(Lou Josie)
Originally done by the Evergreen Blues (Mercury 72756) earlier in 1968; the
Grass Roots' arrangement is more-or-less a note-for-note copy of theirs.
Intro:
Bass:
v v v v v v v v
(G#m) E F# A
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
v v v v v v v v
Verse 1:
The sound of your footsteps
Telling me that you're near
Your soft gentle motion, baby
Brings out the need in me that no-one can hear, except
Chorus:
In my midnight confessions
When I tell all the world that I love you
In my midnight confessions
When I say all the things that I want to
N..
I love you
Bridge:
But a little gold ring you wear on your hand makes me understand
There's another before me, you'll never be mine
I'm wasting my time
repeat first four bars of intro, then 2/4 bar w/snare on 2
Verse 2:
Staggering through the daytime
Your image on my mind
Passing so close beside you baby
Sometimes the feelings are so hard to hide, except
repeat chorus
Horn break:
repeat bridge
repeat chorus; first two lines over arpeggiated organ chords only
repeat to fade
Na na-na na na na na-na
Na na-na na na na na-na
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
