[Verse 1]
[G][D][G]
Climbing up on Solsbury [G]Hill[D][G]
I could see the city [Em]light[D][Em]
Wind was blowing,
time stood [Em]still[D][Em]
Eagle flew out of the [G]night[D][G]
He was something to ob[G]serve[D][G]
Came in close, I heard a [Em]voice[D][Em]
Standing,
stretching every [Em]nerve[D][Em]
Had to listen, had no [C]choice
[D]I did n[C]ot believe the informat[C]ion
[D]Just had[C] to trust imaginatio[Em]n
[D]My [C]heart going boom, boom, boom
[Em]"Son", [D]he [Em]said,

[Verse 2]
[G][D][G]
To keep in silence I re[G]signed[D][G]
My friends would think
I was a [Em]nut[D][Em]
Turning water into [Em]wine[D][Em]
Open doors would soon be [G]shut[D][G]
So I went from day to [G]day[D][G]
Though my life was in a [Em]rut[D][Em]
'Til I thought of what I'll [Em]say[D][Em]
Which connection I should [C]cut
[D]I was[C] feeling part of the scenery[C]
[D]I walked r[C]ight out of the machinery
[Am]My h[D]eart[Am] going
boom, boom, boom
[Am]"Hey", [D]he [Am]said,
[Am]"grab your [G]things, I've [C]come to [D]take you

[Verse 3]
[G][D][G]
When illusion spin her [G]net[D][G]
I'm never where I want to [Em]be[D][Em]
And liberty she pirou[Em]ette[D][Em]
When I think that I am [G]free[D][G]
Watched by empty silhou[G]ettes[D][G]
Who close their eyes
but still can [Em]see[D][Em]
No one taught them eti[Em]quette[D][Em]
I will show another [C]me
[D]Today [C]I don't need a replacem[C]ent
[D]I'll tell [C]them what the smile
on my face [Am]meant
[D]My [Am]heart going boom, boom, boom
[Am]"Hey", [D]I s[Am]aid, "you can
[Am]keep my [G]things, they've [C]come to [D]take me
