[Verse 1]
[Am] [Dm/A]
History recalls how great the fall can be
[G7] [Cmaj7]
While everybody's sleeping, the boats put out to sea
[Fmaj7] [Bm7-5]
Born on the wings of time
[Em7] [Am]
It seemed the answers were so easy to find
[Dm7] [G]
"Too late," the prophets cry
[Cmaj7] [A#sus2]
The island's sinking, let's take to the sky... y

[Verse 2]
[Am] [Dm/A]
Called the man a fool, stripped him of his pride
[G7] [Cmaj7]
Oh, everyone was laughing up until the day he died
[Fmaj7] [Bm7-5]
Oh, though the wound went deep
[Em7] [Am]
Still he's calling us out of our sleep
[Dm7] [G7]
My friends, we're not alone
[Cmaj7] [A#sus2]
He waits in silence to lead us all ho-ome

[Chorus]
[Dm] [Dm6] [Dm7]
So you tell me that you find it hard to grow
[Dm]
Well I know, I know, I know
[Dm6] [Dm7]
And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow
[Dm6]
Well I know, I know, I...

[Verse 3]
[D#]
Can you hear what I'm saying?
[D#]
Can you see the parts that I'm playing?
[Dm7]
"Holy man, rocker man, come on, Queenie—
Joker Man, Spider Man, blue-eyed Meanie!"
[D#]
So you found your solution—
What will be your last contribution?
[Dm7]
"Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy?
Give it out, dish it out, let's go crazy!"
