Originally a minor US hit for the Changing Times (a studio group led by
the writers); covered by Crispian St. Peters', who took it to #4 in the
summer of 1966.

                            "The Pied Piper"
                    (Artie Kornfeld - Steve Duboff)

The acoustic guitar is capoed at the fourth fret and played in G: B6 = 320000,
E = x23010,  etc.

Verse 1:

 Bass [4X; acoustic guitar enters 2nd time]

 (B6)              (E)
  v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v
 -----4---4---4---|-----4---1-------
 ---------------1-|-2---------4-0-1-
 -2-----2---2-----|-----------------
 -----------------|-----------------

 (B6)
 You
           (E)
 With your masquerading
 B6
 And you
         E
 Always contemplating
  B6
 What to do
          E
 In case heaven has found you
  B6
 Can't you see
            E         C#m
 That it's all around you

 (C#m)                               (F#)
  v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v     v
 -----6---6-------|-----6---3-------|-----------------|---
 -------6---6-1-2-|-----------6-1-2-|-----4---4-------|---
 -4---------------|-4---------------|-------4---4-0-1-|---
 -----------------|-----------------|-2---------------|-2-
 (you)                               (me)

           F#
 So follow me

Chorus:

                       B
 [1, 2: Hey] come on, babe
        E
 Follow me
               B
 I'm the Pied Piper
        E
 Follow me
               B
 I'm the Pied Piper
          C#m                 F#
 And I'll show you where it's at

 Come on, babe
 Can't you see
 I'm the Pied Piper
 Trust in me
 I'm the Pied Piper
          C#m       F#        B    E
 And I'll show you where it's at

Verse 2:

 Girl
 Don't be scared to move
 Hey, babe
 What are you tryin' to prove
 It ain't true
 That your life has kicked you
 It's your mind
 And that's all that's trickin' you
 So step in line

 [repeat chorus, 2X]

Coda:

           B
 Come on, babe
        E
 Follow me
           B
 Come on, babe
          E
 Trust in me
           B
 Come on, babe
            E
 Can't you see
           B
 Come on, babe
        E
 Follow me
          B             [end cold]
 I'm the Pied Piper
