Marvin walked into a helpless land and wondered lightly
G# D# A#
Am I happy Is this happy
C7+ Em
Following the footsteps set by man he said to reprimand
G# D# A#
the mystic Who's sadistic
C7+ Em
Took a step into the elevaaaator who said
G# D# A#
Guess I'll see you later don't you worry
C7+ Em
Fifteen flights that lasted nights and days that spent
G# D# A#
without a cent for creatures with their beat shirts

A#* G#*
Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill

C7+ Em
Next the stranded senate from the white brick house with flowers
G# D# A#
asked some questions for their story
C7+ Em
All feeling now he took his bow and left the stage of time
G# D# A#
with no answers to no questions
C7+ Em
Lonely paperbacks that wanted just a taste of feeling
G# D# A#
to implode them before living
C7+ Em
Tiptoed to that wooden sign that said
G# D# A#
now take your place in line for happy this is lovely

the actor with his world renowned was thinking
G# D# A#
bout his last real day of silence was it over
C7+ Em
or is it just we all think that our answer isn't real
G# D# A#
its just a picture of a letter
C7+ Em
bumble mumble make the rounds no matter what you'll seem profound
G# D# A#
it's useless just to worry
C7+ Em
something normal happens somewhere far away in clouds

just a moment doing chores

and there's something and there's something
C#
But you're gone
