[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]I feel the magic that our time has tra[C]ced
[Am]And make a point of it in ever[D]y plac[G]e.
But every place deserves
a curse or [C]two,
[Am]For making m[G]e so far away [D]from you.[G]

[Verse 2]
I saw some pictures of [G]the world at war,
[C]I c[Am]ouldn't suss what all the f[D]uss was for.[G]
I wear a picture of you wearing black[C],
[G]And kissing me behind the
[D]butler's back[G].

[Verse 3]
[C]Sometimes I get [G]down,[Am]
But it's not [C]you that gets me [G]down,[Am]
It's just that sense [G]of [C]the im[Am]possible,
[D]Gratuitously handed down.

[Verse 4]
But oh [C]no, not [D]you,
don't wipe your [G]eyes over lies,
Just let [C]them shine their blue,
On [Am]every whisper that welcomes
the in[D]conceivable

[Interlude 1]
And the birth of the true.
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]I'd sack the world and
make a second start,
[C]I'd[Am] sack my head until
[D]I'd found my [G]heart,
I'd fill the distance with a red [C]parade,
[G]And bur[Gdim]n the banks[G] down
while [D]the bugles [G]played.

[Verse 6]
[C]Some[G]times [C]I g[Am]et down,
But it's not [C]you that gets me [G]down,[Am]
It's just that [C]sense of the
[G]im [Am]possible,
[D]Gratuitously handed down.

[Verse 7]
But oh [C]no, not [D]you,
don't wipe your [G]eyes over lies,
Just let [C]them shine their blue,
[Am][D][G][C][G][D]
On every [Am]whisper that [D]welcomes [G]the
[C]inc[G]onc[D]eiv[Am]able[D]
And the birth of the true.
