Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramG+G
How long before I get in?
     Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
Before it starts, before I begin?
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)        Chord diagramG+G
How long before you decide?
     Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
Before I know what it feels like?
    (Chord diagramA augmentedA)      Chord diagramG+G
Where to, where do I go?
    Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
If you never try, then you'll never know.
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)        Chord diagramG+G
How long do I have to climb,
     Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

INSTRUMENTAL

Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramG+G
Look up, I look up at night
      Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramA augmentedA
Planets are moving at the speed of light
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)       Chord diagramG+G
Climb up, up in the trees
           Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
Every chance that you get is a chance you seize
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)       Chord diagramG+G
How long, am I gonna stand
    Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
With my head stuck under the sand?
  (Chord diagramA augmentedA)        Chord diagramG+G
I'll start, before I can stop
     Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramA augmentedA
Before I see things the right way up

PRE-CHORUS:
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramA augmentedA         Chord diagramB minorBm
 All that noise, and all that sound,
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramA augmentedA      Chord diagramB minorBm
 All those places I got found.

CHORUS:
  Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramD MajorD
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
  Chord diagramB minorBm         Chord diagramG6G6
to show you how it all began.
Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
Birds came flying from the underground,
      Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramG+G
if you could see it then you'd understand

INSTRUMENTAL

Chord diagramA augmentedA          Chord diagramG+G
Ideas that you'll never find
     Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramA augmentedA
Or the inventers could never design
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)         Chord diagramG+G
The buildings that you put up
     Chord diagramD MajorD       Chord diagramA augmentedA
Japan and China, all lit up
  (Chord diagramA augmentedA)        Chord diagramG+G
The sign that I couldn't read
    Chord diagramD MajorD        Chord diagramA augmentedA
Or a light that I couldn't see
   (Chord diagramA augmentedA)          Chord diagramG+G
Some things you have to believe
        Chord diagramD MajorD       Chord diagramA augmentedA
But others are puzzles, puzzling me.

PRE-CHORUS:
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramA augmentedA         Chord diagramB minorBm
 All that noise, and all that sound,
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramA augmentedA      Chord diagramB minorBm
 All those places I got found.

CHORUS:
  Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramD MajorD
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
  Chord diagramB minorBm         Chord diagramG6G6
to show you how it all began.
Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
Birds came flying from the underground,
      Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramG+G
if you could see it then you'd understand

BRIDGE:
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramB minorBm
 All those signs, I knew what they meant.
         Chord diagramD MajorD
Some things you can invent.
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramA augmentedA         Chord diagramB minorBm  Chord diagramG6G6
 Some get made, and some get sent, ooh

CHORUS:
  Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD
And words go flying at the speed of sound,
  Chord diagramB minorBm         Chord diagramG6G6
to show you how it all began.
Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramD MajorD
Birds came flying from the underground,
      Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramB minorBm
if you could see it then you'd understand
       Chord diagramA augmentedA        Chord diagramG+G
if you could see it then you'd understand.
