Intro -x2-: Ebm Db6 Bb7 Abm
 
Verse 1:
 Ebm                            Db6
Imagine, the girls around town assemble
                             Bb7
The traveler's son they come asking
      Abm
Where he came from
              Ebm
Cause they've watched him
                          Db6
Washing his face near the pond
                       Bb7
a curious boy and they wonder
      Abm
Where he came from
 
Chorus:
         Ebm        Db6                             Bb7
He says: "I, I have seen the world's most beautiful places,
       Abm                            Ebm
Still I   feel, as If I'm a walking machine,
                          Db6
Watching it all through a screen
                      Bb7        Abm
There is nothing in between to me
                          Ebm
This might as well not be real"
 
Verse 2:
Db6 Bb7 Abm Ebm                                Db6
           Imagine, the girls take him up on a hill
                               Bb7
It's an Indigo night, there's a   chill
    Abm                     Ebm
The boy is confused but he's   still
                         Db6
As they gather around him
                          Bb7
So many of them, they all sing
      Abm
G#out the pleasures of life
       Ebm
And he cries:
 
Chorus:
           Db6                     Bb7              Abm
"Why can't I  sing along with some feeling, or some meaning?
                               Ebm
It feels like I've always been blind.
                                 Db6
I don't know why you girls are so   kind,
                         Bb7
For there are so many in line
      Abm                          Ebm
Whose lives aren't as lost as mine"

Interlude:
   Ebm Db6 Bb7 Abm
 
Chorus:
Ebm                             Db6
   Now something happened there,
                                     Bb7
The smell of the grass, or maybe the air
          Abm
There was no more despair
Ebm                               Db6
   Just something about that night
                               Bb7
Maybe the girls, they lit some light,
         Abm
And made everything right
           Abm7
Cause he's never been
Bb        Ebm
More alive
