Am
Someone somewhere sometime ago
His eyes were clear to see
He put his thoughts into my mind
And gave myself to me
Dm
He stopped me from living so unsane
I can be just what I want to be
Am
Things appear as they really are
I can see just what I want to see

Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
     Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
               Am
You've got to open up your mind
                                 G - Am     G - Am
And let everything come through

Am
Oh well, it starts like a roller coaster ride
So real it takes your breath away
It slides you through your point of view
You look back to where you thought you'd stay
      Dm
Your ride the changes outside you
While inside you're like a neon ray
         Am
And you find out you don't have to search for words
For there's nothing you need to say

Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
     Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
               Am
You've got to open up your mind
And let everything come through

G - Am    G - Am

Am
After your trip life opens up
You start doing what you want to do
And you find out that the world you once knew
Gets what it has from you
Dm
No one can ever hurt you
Because you know more that you thought you knew
             Am
And you're looking at the world through brand new eyes
And no one can ever spoil the view

Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
     Em                      Dm
Come on and let it happen to you
               Am
You've got to open up your mind
And let everything come through

Repeat   G - Am               (End)
