[intro]
A E A
A E A
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
A E A
I could see the city light
F#m E F#m
Wind was blowing time stood still
F#m E A
Eagle flew out of the night
A E A
He was something to observe
A E A
Came in close I heard a voice
F#m E F#m
Standing stretching every nerve
F#m E D
I had to listen had no choice
[Chorus 1]
F#m A D
I did not believe the information
F#m A D
Just had to trust imagination
D7M E F#m
My heart going boom boom boom
D7M E
Son he said
D A E
Grab your things I've come to take you home
A Asus4 E D
Eh don't quit
A Asus4 E D
[Verse 2]
A E A
To keeping silence I resigned
A E A
My friends would think I was a nut
F#m E F#m
Turning water into wine
F#m E A
Open doors would soon be shut
A E A
So I went from day to day
A E A
Though my life was in a rut
F#m E F#m
till I thought of what I'd say
F#m E D
Which connection I should cut
[Chorus 2]
F#m A D
I was feeling part of the scenery
F#m A D
I walked right out of the machinery
F#m A B
My heart was going boom boom boom
F#m A
Hey he said
D A E
Grab your things I've come to take you home
[Post-Chorus 2]
A Asus4 E D
Yeah back home
A Asus4 E D
[Verse 3]
A E A
When illusion spin her net
A E A
I'm never where I want to be
F#m E F#m
And liberty she pirouette
F#m E A
When I think that I am free
A E A
Watched by empty silhouettes
A E A
Who close their eyes but still can see
F#m E F#m
No one taught them etiquette
F#m E D
I will show another me
[Chorus 3]
F#m A D
Today I don't need a replacement
F#m A D
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
F#m A B
My heart going boom boom boom
F#m A
Hey I said
D A E
You can keep my things they've come to take me home
A Asus4 E D A
