Looking For An Echo by Kenny Vance
Looking For An Echo
INTRO: C Am F G7 - play over and over until
Verse comes in.
VERSE:
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
VERSE:
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
CHORUS:
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
BRIDGE:
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 G#7
Even though it was falsetto we almost reached the sky
VERSE:
C# Bbm F# G#7
We've sung a lot of changes since 19 55
C# Bbm F# G#7
And a lot of bad arrangements we've tried to harmonise
F# G#7 C# Bbm
Now they've turned into oldies but they were newies then
F# G#7 A7
And today when I play those old 45's I remember when
CHORUS:
D Bm G A7
'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
D Bm G A7
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ...
D Bm G7 A7
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
D Bm G A7
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ...
D Bm G7 A7
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
D Bm G A7 D
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost found
NOTE: Depending on Kenny Vance and the Planotones mood
they sometimes change the ending up. They will use
parts from two other doo-wop songs.
In that case play D Bm G A7 over and over until end.
These are the additional lyrics they will use:
VERSE:
Wooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oh
You are an angel
Angel divine
You're sent from heaven
You're really mine
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh, oh my darling
Lorraine
*VERSE:
Oh what a night
This is the night
This is the night
This is the night for love
Sing the second VERSE* 6 times - then fade out....
