Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G][Dm][D][G][D][G]
[Am]
[G]
[Am][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Up there
There's a ball of fire
Some call it the spirit
Some call it the sun
Its energies are not for hire

[Verse 2]
It serves man it serves everyone
[G]Down [Gm]there where [G]Jonah wails
In the healing [Gm]wa ter
In the ready [F]depth[Dm]s
[Am]Twisting like silver swans
No line of death no boundar[G]ies
[Am][D][C][D][C][D][C][D][C]
[Am][G]
[Am]Up
there the eye is hollow the eye is winking
The winds [A]ablaze [Am]angels howling
The sphinx awakens
But what can she say
You'd be amazed
[G]Down [Gm]there
Your days are numbered
[Gsus4][G][Gm]
[G]Nothing to fear
There [Am]will be trumpets
There will be silence
In the end the end
Will be here just here
[G]Ah [Am]h[D][C][D][C][D][C][D]
[C]
[E]the[D] borders o[E]f heaven
[D]Are [E]zipped up [D]tight to[E]night
[D]The abs[E]tract streets
[D]The lights lik[E]e some switched-
[D]on [E]Mon[D]drian
Cats like [E]us are obsol[D]ete
[E]Hey Man don[D]'t breath on my fee[E]t[D]
[E]Thieves, po[D]ets we're [E]in side [D]out
And [E]everybody's [D]a soldier[E]
An[D]gels howl at those [E]abstract [D]lights
And the [E]borders of heav[D]en
Are zipped up tight [Am]tonight
[G][A][Asus4][G][Am][G]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Up there
There's a ball of fire
Some call it the spirit
Some call it [G]the sun
[Am]Its energies are not for hire
It serves man it serves everyone

[Verse 4]
The [G]air we breathe
The [Gm]flame of wisdom
The earth we grind
The beckoning [G]sea
It's [Am]no mystery
Not sentimental
Ahh the equation
It's all [D]elemental[C][D][C]
[D][C][D][C][Am]
[G][Am]
The world is restless
Heaven in flux
Angels appears
From the bright storm
Out of the shadows
Up there, down there
But what can we say
Man's been [D]forewarned[Am]

[Verse 5]
All communion [Am]is not holy
Even those that fail
They can prophet that fall
It's all for man
It's for everyone
It's up there, down there
[D]Everywhere[Am]
Everywhere
[G]Time for[Am] communion
Time for communion

[Outro 1]
Talking communion
[Am][Am]
[Am][Am][Am]
[Am][Am]
