Music Box (Schulze)
Great song from a Norwegian Prog band called Popol Ace. They were initially called Popol
but changed their name to avoid confrontation with a German band with a similar name.
song came out in 1973 and is taken from the album Quiche Maya
Standard tuning, listen to the track for timing
(the song is originally played with a 12-string guitar)

Verse 1
Sitting in our music box, making songs I wonder now what for
Is there really more to tell, or haven't you really heard it all before.

Oh - who can tell
Oh - in the end it won't make no difference
Then the rest of the band comes in, but the verses and bridges are still
the same.
Verse 2
What is there more now to create
we cannot find new words for love and hate
All we do is done before
and all we say is said by people great
Bridge
Oh - who can tell
Oh - in the end it won't make no difference
Verse 3
Time has come for us to end
this fairy-tale of music-poetry
But I must admit we do believe
in our well known insanity
Bridge
Oh - who can tell
Oh - in the end it wont make no difference
