(A minorAm C majorC)x8

Verse 1:
G+G         E minorEm
 Down beneath the swoosh of the turbines,
FF          E minorEm
 The long grass it blows in ripples,
G+G          E minorEm
 There's a beautiful spiral of roads,
FF
 That lead the lost up here.
G+G          E minorEm
 I was watching the birds taking off,
  FF          E minorEm
To swoop down over the city,
G+G            E minorEm
 They find and take just what they need,
  FF
And turn, turn, turn.

Chorus:
  A minorAm        C majorC
The movers move, the shakers shake,
  A minorAm          C majorC
The winners write their history,
     A minorAm     C majorC
But from high on the high hills
  A minorAm       C majorC
It all looks like nothing.
  A minorAm        C majorC
The movers move, the shakers shake,
  A minorAm          C majorC
The winners write their history,
     A minorAm     C majorC
But from high on the high hills
  A minorAm       C majorC
It all looks like nothing.

Verse 2:
G+G           E minorEm
 That afternoon on the hustler gate,
   FF     E minorEm
With all the TVs flickering,
G+G         E minorEm
 While behind the sky was moving,
FF
Liquid crimson gold.
G+G         E minorEm
 Brothers, sisters, pay no heed
    FF      E minorEm
To the unfaithful messengers,
G+G        E minorEm
 For theirs is a prison world,
  FF
Of lies, lies, lies.

Chorus

Bridge:
D MajorD
 The keening wind,
            FF
It blows though me, it blows through me.
D MajorD
 My time it must,
     FF
Be almost done, be almost done.

(A minorAm C majorC)x4

Outro:
A minorAm          C majorC
All these things you fear so much
 A minorAm        C majorC
Depend on angles of vision.
A minorAm      C majorC
 Down in the maze of walls,
A minorAm          C majorC
 You can't see what's coming,
     A minorAm     C majorC
But from high on the high hills
  A minorAm       C majorC
It all looks like nothing,
   A minorAm     C majorC
From high on the high hills
  A minorAm       C majorC      (A minorAm C majorC)x4 D5D5 E5E5 C5C5 D5D5 (A minorAm C majorC)x4 D5D5 E5E5 C5C5 D5D5 A minorAm
It all looks like nothing, nothing.
