[C] [F] [C] [Dm] [C]
[F] When the [C] time does come near again, [Bb] [Dm] when the day [C] does seem clear [F]
[C] again,
[F] naked [C] in the night time, [Bb] dreaming [F] in [C] the light time,
[Bb] all [C] of you [F] come away, [C] [Bb] just [Dm] a blow [C] shot away.
[F] [C] [F] Let [C] me tell you all a story now, [Bb] a [Dm] tale of glory [C] and power.
[Eb] I don't [Bb] even know your [F] name, [Eb] but I thought I'd [Bb] tell you all [F] about it just to say
[Eb] we are [Bb] all creatures [F] of faith, [C] black [Dm] as can be.
In [F] [C] [Dm]
[C] [F] [C] [Dm]
[C] [F] [C] the days of the olden times, [Bb] [Dm] of ancient [C] days,
in paradise [C] and [F] awe, priests of [C] God and agony
[Bb] could walk [Dm] through the [C] oceans and the seas
[Bb] and bend [C] the pyramid to a [F]
[C] sign.
[Bb] The [Dm] water stream [C] from the sky, [F] [C] [F] the [C] ocean you know she's your friend,
[Bb] your brother [Dm] and your sister [C] just as sure as sin.
[Eb] [Gm] Put your [F] hands in the water and [Eb] [Bb] rest your feet [F] on the sea,
black sea, [Eb] you don't [Bb] have to let your [F] body die,
oh no no [Eb] no, you can come [Bb] back again [F] if you try, [C] if you try, [Dm] if you try.

[C] [F] This song was [C] made then by you and me, [Bb] a billion [Dm] years before these [C] oceans drove.
[F] [C] [F] Oh, [C] it's me you've been writing, [Bb] shine [Dm] like silver, [C] like sun goes.
[Bb] A [C] hundred years [F] from today, [C] [Bb] [Dm] all you people will [C] be gone [F] away,
[C] [F] down into [C] the heart of the sea.
[Am] [Bb] Back to [Dm] the time of [C] wonder why you and me,
[Eb] I don't [Gm] even know [F]
me, but [Eb] I come back to tell [Bb] you all about [F] it just to say
if [Eb] you laughed [Bb] real hard [F] and quit the game,
hang out and [Eb] get marbled down a [Bb] candle,
well [F] that's the same as now, [Eb] can you [Bb] smell the [F] good old [C] fame?
I [Gm] said [Dm] never dream.
