Looking For An Echo

Key: C

Introduction:

             C                         Am                                    F                              G7  
At Erasmus Hall high school we used to harmonize
C                                                 Am                 F                            G7  
Me and Frankie and Adam and two Italian guys
F                                         G7                         C                                      Am  
We were singing oldies but they were newies then
             F                                                                                      G7  
And today when I play my old 45's I remember when
             C                                 Am                            F                         G7  
We practiced in a subway, in a lobby or a hall
C                                 Am                                    F                                    G7  
Crowded in a doorway singing do waps to the wall
             F                                         G7                              C                                      Am  
And if we went to a party and they wouldn't let us sing
                F                                                                                         G7  
We'd lock ourselves in the bathroom and nobody could get in
G                                      C                                    Am              F                                 G7  
'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
        C                                    Am                    F                            G              C    Am    F    G7  
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost found      ooooh
                        F                                              G7                                            C                                         C7  
And the girls would gather 'round us and our heads would really swell
                F                                         G7                                         C                                    C7  
We'd sing songs by the Moonglows, the Harptones and the Dells
             F                                                                    C                                    Am  
And when we sang sincerely, we really sang it high
                D7                                                              F                                                 G    Ab7  
Even though it was falsetto we almost reached the sky
                  C#                            Bbm                            F#  Ab7  
We've sung a lot of changes since 19 55
                  C#                         Bbm                                      F#                            Ab7  
And a lot of bad arrangements we've tried to harmonise
             F#                                            Ab7                      C#                                      Bbm  
Now they've turned into oldies but they were newies then
                F#                                                                                            Ab7                 A7  
And today when I play those old 45's I remember when
                                             D                              Bm              G                                    A7  
'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound

  D                                    Bm              G7                            A7
