[C]
[Gm] [G]
[A] [F#m] [G]
[D] [F#m] [C]
[G] [F#m] Imagine a time when it [G] all began In the dying [C#m] days of a [A] war
A weapon that [C] would settle the [G] score [A] Whoever found it first
Would be [G] sure to do their [A] worst They [F#m] always had [C] before
[G]
[D] Imagine [C]
[G] [Bm] [A] a man [F#m] where it [G] all began A scientist [A] facing the floor
In each nation, [C] always eager to [G] explore [A] Build the best big [F#m] stick
To [G] turn the winning trick [A] But [F#m] this was something [C] more
[A#]
[D] [Dm]
[F]
[C] Dials of cannon shook the world Shot down the rising sun
[A#] The end was begun, it killed everyone When the chain reaction was done
[D] Big shots tried to hold it back The fools tried to push it away
[F] So hopeful, dependent on the world we found Whatever the hope was they'd say
[G] [A] Imagine a place [F#m] where it [G] all began Gathering from [Em] across the [A] land
To work in the secrecy [C] of the desert [G] sand [E] All the brightest [F#m] boys
To play [G] with the biggest [A] toys [F#m] More than they [C] bargained for
The thing that he banged Took and shook the world
[A#] Shot down the rising sun [D] The hope of revenge
On a world [Dm] without end [F] All was racing
Imagine [G]
[A] a man [F#m] when it [G] all began The pilot of [A] another game
Flying out of the [F#m] [G] shockwave Of an alliance
[A] [F#m] [G] of his love
[A]
[F#m] Would be changed [C] forever
Big [A#]
[D]
[F]
[C] bang took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun
[A#] The end was begun, it killed everyone When the chain reaction was done
[D] Big shots tried to hold it back The fools tried to [Dm] push it away
[F] So hopeful, dependent on the world we found Whatever the hope was they'd say
[C] The thing that he banged Took and shook the world
[A#]
Shot down the rising sun
[Dm] The hope of revenge On a world without [Am] end
[F] Whatever the [D#] hope was [F] they'd say
