Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][D]
[Bm][D][Bm]
Climbing up [G]on

[Verse 1]
[D]Solsbury Hill
I could see the city [G]light[Bm]
Wind was blowing, [G]time [D]stood still
Eagle flew out [Bm]of the night
He was something [G]to ob[D]serve
Came in close, I heard [G]a voice
[Bm]Standing, stre[G]tching every nerve[D]
I had to listen had no [Bm]choice
I did not believe [G]the information
I just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom, boom, boom
Son, he said, grab your things I've [A]come
to take you [D]home

[Interlude 1]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][G]

[Verse 2]
To keep in si[D]lence I resigned
My friends would think I [Dm]was a[Bm] slut
Turning [G]water into [D]wine
Open doors would soon be [Bm]shut[G][Bm]
So I [G]went [D]from day to day
Though my life was in a [Bm]rut
Till I thought of what I'd say
[D]And which connection I should cut[Bm]
I was feeling [G]part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom, boom, boom
Hey, he said, grab your things I've
[A]come to take you [D]home
[G][Bm]

[Verse 3]
Take back home,
[D]grab your thi[Bm]ngs
When illu[G]sion spin her [D]net
I'm never where I want to [G]be[Bm]
And [G]liberty [F]she [D]pirouette?
When I think that I am [Bm]free
[D]Watched by [Bm]empty[G] silho[D]uettes
Close their eyes but [Dm]still can [Bm]see
No one taught them [G]etiquette[D]
I will show an[G]other [Bm]me[G]
[Bm]Toda[G]y I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile
on my face meant
My heart was going boom, boom, boom
Hey, I [A]said, [D]keep my things
I've come to take me home
Hey, [G]I said,
keep my things I've come to take you home
I've come to take you home
Hey, I said, I've come to take
[A]you[D] home
Come to take you [Bm]home
My heart was going [G]boom,
[D]boom, boom
My heart was going [Bm]boom,
[D]boo[G]m, boom
[D]Hey, I said, you can keep my things and come
to [Bm]take [G]me home
They've come to [D]take me home
My heart is going boom,
boom, [Bm]boom
[D][D]
