E7+9                G (1/2)     A (1/2)

    Purple haze all in my brain

E7+9                G (1/2)     A (1/2)

    Lately things don't seem the same

E7+9                G (1/2)     A (1/2)

E7+9 (hold 3, with octave riff)

   'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

 

E7+9            G (1/2)     A (1/2)

   Purple haze all around

E7+9                     G (1/2)     A (1/2)

Don't know if I'm comin' up or down

E7+9              G (1/2)     A (1/2)

   Am I happy or in misery?

    E7+9 (hold 3, with octave riff)

Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me

 

A         B         D

  Help me   Help me   Oh, no, no

Ya!      Purple haze all in my eyes

    Don't know if it's day or night

E7+9                      G (1/2)       A (1/2)A

    You got me blowin', blowin' my mind

       E7+9 (hold 3, with octave riff)

Is it            tomorrow or just the end of time

 

A       B         D

  Oooh    Help me   Oh, no

End on E5
