A memory of a free festival.

[F]
[F]
[G] The children of the [F] summer's end
[C] Gathered in the dampened grass
We [Bm] played our songs and felt [Bb] the London sky
[C] Resting on our hands, it [G] was God's love
It was [C] rugged and naive, it was heaven
[Dm]
Touch, we touched the very [F] soul
Of [C] holding each and every [Am] life
We [Bm] claimed the very source of [Bb] joy ran through
[C] It didn't, but it seemed that [G] way
I [C] kissed a lot of people that [G] day
[Eb] [Eb]
[C]
Oh, to capture just one drop of all the [Am] ecstasy
That swept that [F] afternoon
To [C] paint that love upon a white [C] balloon
And fly it from the toughest top of all the tops
That man has pushed [F] beyond his brain
[G] Satori must be [C] something just the same
We [D] scanned the skies with rainbow eyes
And saw machines [D] of every shape and [G] size
[A] We talked with tall Venusians [D] passing through
And Peter tried to climb aboard
But the captain shook his head and away they soared
[A] Climbing through the [G] ivory [D] vibrant cloud
[A] Someone passing [G] bliss among the [D] crowd
And we [Am] walked back [G] to the road
Unshamed
[A] [Bm]
[D] [Am]
