Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
I met a man who had green-purple eyes
A augmentedA             F# minorF#m
He did the wrong thing and hid it with smiles
A augmentedA            F# minorF#m
And I know he would've rotted inside
D MajorD        E MajorE
But he never got caught
A augmentedA              F# minorF#m
And I always thought that you have to be nice
A augmentedA         F# minorF#m
And I really think most people try
A augmentedA          F# minorF#m        D MajorD       A augmentedA
I saw a man give his lung just to save a stranger's life
  D MajorD       A augmentedA     D MajorD      E MajorE
And my mother cried as they hugged and smiled

Chorus:
  A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE
Oh, I'm just a traveller passing through, passing through
A augmentedA      D MajorD     A augmentedA      E MajorE
Riding my spaceship to the moon, to the moon
 A augmentedA         D MajorD
Looking down at the hope and the pain
A augmentedA             E MajorE
But the colours are all going to change
 A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA      E MajorE
Yes, I see a garden that's in bloom, that's in bloom

A augmentedA F# minorF#m A augmentedA F# minorF#m

Verse 2:
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
The city's been sitting in smoke for the weekend
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
And the beaches are closed from rough seas and
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
I've been told that it's just the seasons
D MajorD        E MajorE
But I don't think so
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
I watched the white caps from West San Francisco
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
Where the red bridge is standing in mist
A augmentedA          F# minorF#m
And everyone waits for their picture
D MajorD       A augmentedA   D MajorD      A augmentedA    D MajorD   E MajorE
Old friends smile, side by side against fading skies

Chorus:
  A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE
Oh, I'm just a traveller passing through, passing through
A augmentedA      D MajorD     A augmentedA      E MajorE
Riding my spaceship to the moon, to the moon
 A augmentedA         D MajorD
Looking down at the hope and the pain
A augmentedA             E MajorE
But the colours are all going to change
 A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA      E MajorE
Yes, I see a garden that's in bloom, that's in bloom

Bridge:
A augmentedA        D MajorD   F# minorF#m    E MajorE
I can feel your anger from where I am
     A augmentedA        D MajorD        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
You said, "I don't see a garden going on from where I stand"
      A augmentedA      D MajorD    F# minorF#m      E MajorE
And I feel that too, I get scared and I feel stuck
      A augmentedA        D MajorD
Then I see light, I see sky, I see babies that smile
     F# minorF#m          E MajorE
And couples that meet up on wide, sunny streets
A augmentedA        D MajorD        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
What if love is the one that takes us on and takes us up?
A augmentedA        D MajorD        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
What if love is the one that takes us on and takes us up?
A augmentedA        D MajorD        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
And I know those words make me sound so young
A augmentedA        D MajorD        F# minorF#m      E MajorE
But what if love is the one that takes us on and takes us up?

Chorus:
  A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA       E MajorE
Oh, I'm just a traveller passing through, passing through
A augmentedA      D MajorD     A augmentedA      E MajorE
Riding my spaceship to the moon, to the moon
 A augmentedA         D MajorD
Looking down at the hope and the pain
A augmentedA             E MajorE
But the colours are all going to change
 A augmentedA        D MajorD        A augmentedA      E MajorE
Yes, I see a garden that's in bloom, that's in bloom
