[F]
In case you don't [B] remember
This [G]
is who you [B] are
You can call me Zero
[Em] Because [F] there's nothing to it to [B] be nothing to the [Em] world of yesterday
[G]
Nothing to it to be nothing to [B] the world if you like that
Now to continue with the [F] story of the planet [B] young
It's the legacy of the future family
This is why we're getting high to say goodbye to the heavy vines
Leave it all behind, leaving it all behind
When you [F] stop breathing you're leaving your hope in your life
And you're everyone everywhere
[B] In [F] case [G] you don't remember
This is who you [B]
are
You can believe me
This is who you [G]
are
Listen to what my nana and [F] I say
[Am] She's [C]
[F] [Am]
[Bb] [C]
[F] where [Am] I [Dm] should be
[C] Well, [F] I've been to [Am] a star
[Gm] It's so near and [C] so far
[F] Where for [C] everything everyone [Gm] [C] cares
[F] Have [C] people they love and [Gm] forgive [C] and let live
Oh, [F] I wanted [C] so much to stay there
[F] Why [Am] can't [Bb] you leave?
[C] I'm [F] this world in [C] the sky where [D] I wanted [C] to stay
[F] There's a masters [C] of wisdom [Gm] and [C] love that [F] say it's never [Am] too late
[Gm] If you want to [C] change your fate, [F] change your head
And the rest will [D] come [C] after
[F] But I've [C] got that [Ebm] to [A] work out [Bb] [A] here
[Eb] Now [A] we [Bb] [A] change
[Eb] [A] slowly
But I [E] ask you [A] to remind [Eb]
me
[Bbm] Why do we keep blowing it like [F] we do?
[B]
[F]
[C]
[F]
[Am] [Dm]
See [C] it all, [F]
[Am] what [D] we [C] see
As I travel through space, I look back on this planet
[F] And it seems [C] like insanity to me
For [F] a man with no [C] mind, kill [Gm] a crowd [C] of his kind
While [F] proclaiming [C] his will to be [Gm] [C] free
See it all,
[F] what [Am] it [Eb] is
[C] Well, [F] from out of [Am] the blue, then [Gm] I tuned into [C] you
[F] Just to make sure [C] that you were [Gm] alright
[C] And with [F] your eyes [C] full of stars [Gm] and your [C] hashish cigars
[F] You're still drinking [C] and dancing [Gm] all [C] night
[F] But when [C] the morning [F] comes, dear
[Bbm] Will [A] you still be [Bbm] [A] hiding?
Now I [E] ask you [Db] to remind [Eb]
me
[Bbm]
Why do we treat ourselves like [F] we do?
[B]
[E]
[F] [Am]
[C]
[F] [Am]
[Dm] [C] See it all, [F] what [Am] it is
[Gm] [C]
There's nothing that's new that is under the sun
[F] Except [Am] what we have [D] [C] forgotten
So [F] don't worry, [C] don't hurry
But there's no time to lose
Have to choose between things we [Dm] just want
[C] And the things that [F] we [Am]
need
[E] Now [C]
that you know that you knew it all the [E] time
[C]
[F] But [C] when the new [A] world comes, dear
Well, will [Eb] you [A] be [Bbm] too [A] [Eb] then [A] to ask [Bbm] you [A] to remind [Eb] me?
[Bbm] Why do we treat ourselves like [F] we do?
[Bbm] Why do we treat this old world like [F] we do?
[Bbm] Why do we keep fooling everyone like [F] we do?
[B]
[Em] [B]
[F]
Are you [N] okay?
