||: Fm Dbmaj7 Eb11 :||
Dm Bb Am
Standing tough, Under stars and stripes we can tell
Gm
The dream is in sight,
Dm Bb Am
You've got to admit it, at this point in time that it's clear
Gm
The future looks bright
Ab Dbmaj7 Ab Dbmaj7
On that train all graphite and glitter, Undersea by rail
Ab Dbmaj7
Nintey minutes from New York to Paris
Dbdim7 Dbm7
Well by seventy-six we'll be A.O.K.
Fm Dbmaj7
CHORUS: |: What a beautiful world this will be
| Dbmaj7 Eb11
| What a glorious time to be free :|
Dm Bb Am
Get your ticket to that wheel in space while there's time
Gm
The fix is in
Dm Bb Am
You'll be a witness to that game of chance in the sky
Gm
You know we've got to win
Ab Dbmaj7 Ab Dbmaj7
Here at home we'll play in the city, Powered by the sun
Ab Dbmaj7
Perfect weather for a streamlined world
Dbdim7 Dm7
There'll be spandex jackets one for everyone
CHORUS

Ab Dbmaj7 Ab Dbmaj7
On that train all graphite and glitter, Undersea by rail
Ab Dbmaj7
Nintey minutes from New York to Paris

A just machine to make big decisions
Ab Dbmaj7
Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision
Ab Dbmaj7
We'll be clean when their work is done
Dbdim7 Dm7
We'll be eternally free yes and eternally young
