Brian Wilson
Good Vibrations (Live 1966)
Well
Hey, hit the right note this time, OK?
What's the right note?
Play it this time
Probably an F C
Easy, I haven't learned it yet
Hey, man, they expect me to play this woo-woo machine
This is ridiculous
Give me a note
Hey, yeah, it really is
Just for instance a note
We're talking of the E flat actually
We aren't too nervous for this song
Ah, this is the second night we've tried it
If the light man would just dim the lights a little, in fact just turn them, out I'd like to go look for a fire hydrant
Easy
Well, enough for the locker room patter
Carl did so well on that last diddy
We thought he'd do another one, wouldn't you Carl?
Yeah
Of course with the group's help, you know
OK, he's gonna do our new song called "Good Vibrations"
Here we go
One, two, three

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom-bop-bop, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Bop-bop, excitations)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations

Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Oom-bop-bop, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Bop-bop, excitations)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
(Aaaaah)
(Ah, my, my, what)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Ah, my, my, what a sensation)
(Ah, my, my, what elation)
(Ah, my, my, what elation)

Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a happenin'

Aaaaah

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations
I'm pickin' up good vibrations
(Good, good, good, good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations

Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
