This is a really atypical Hendrix tune, but is one of my favourites. And it's quite simple too! B9 F#7 I just want to talk to you. B9 F#7 I won't uh, do you no harm, B9 F#7 I just want to know about B9 F#7 your different lives, B9 F#7 on this here people farm. B9 C9 F#7 I heard some of you got your families, B9 C9 F#7 living in cages tall & cold, B9 C9 F#7 And some just stay there and dust away, B9 C9 F#7 past the age of old. B9 C9 F#7 is this true? B9 C9 F#7 Please let me talk to you. C#9 D9 G#7 I just wanna know about, C#9 D9 G#7 the rooms behind your minds, C#9 D9 G#7 Do I see a vacuum there, C#9 D9 G#7 or am I going blind? C#9 D9 G#7 Or is it just remains from vibrations C#9 D9 G#7 and echoes long ago, C#9 D9 G#7 Things like 'Love the World' C#9 D9 G#7 and 'Let your fancy flow', B9 C9 F#7 Is this true? B9 C9 F#7 Please let me talk to you. B9 C9 F#7 Let me talk to you. C5 C#5 I have lived here before, C5 B5 the days of ice, C5 C#5 And of course this is why C5 B5 I'm so concerned, C9 C#9 And I come back to find C9 B9 the stars misplaced C9 C#9 and the smell of a world C9 B9 that has burned. (Solo) The smell of a world that has burned. Well, maybee, maybe it's just a change of climate. C#7 E7#9 I can dig it, I can dig it baby, I just want to see. B9 F#7 So where do I purchase my ticket, B9 F#7 I would just like to have a ringside seat, B9 F#7 I want to know about the new Mother Earth, B9 F#7 I want to hear and see everything, B9 F#7 I want to hear and see everything, B9 F#7 I want to hear and see everything. Aw, shucks, If my daddy could see me now. Generally speaking Jimi rocks his pedal at a constant pace, like you would if you were tapping your foot with the music. The actual rhythm ebbs and flows and changes in a real jazzy way, so you'll need to listen the track. The chord change from B9 to C9 (and likewise from C#9 to D9) in particular changes in form and timing and is sometimes even omitted. So basically as with all tunes by improvisationally inspired artists best just to do your own thing!
