?Piper?



"Piper"

by Phish

The song starts out improvising some notes in G then starts to strum these chords:

G Am7 C Em C Em (x3)

Then:

G Am7 C Em

C Em
Those were the words I said all along

Now sing:

G Am7 C Em
Pied, pied piper in the red, red wood, woke last night to the sound of the
C Em
storm, those were the words I said all along

During this, backup singers sing things like "the words I said all along"

After about 8 times, solo out of your mind in G for awhile, then start the chord progression
and
again, only louder.

Then, after about eight more times play these chords:

C G C G C

Jam happy,
Tabbem

Heard this was something Tom Marshall woke up from a dream and wrote down while he was half-asleep.

building off of what subskin said... i bet tom wrote "piper piper the red red worm" down because he kept hearing it in his dream, and thats wat the other two lines meant... like he literally woke up to the sound of a storm and wrote those words because he didnt want to forget them.. they cudve been important in his dream. or perhaps the sound of the storm made him think he was sailing ina boat until it woke him up. maybe piper the red worm was the name of the boat. ad he sailed on it. until he woek up to the sound of the storm. right there is an example of reading-too-much-into-it.

this song is odd but really cool when it builds up.
