_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ Many [G] years ago, _ _ [D] he _ [Am] looked out through a [Em] glassless window
All that [G] he could see [D] was bare and [A]
long
_ _ _ _ Beautiful [G]
green fields [D] and _ dreams
[Am] And learned to measure [Em] the stars
But there [G] was a worry _ _ [D] in _ [Am] his heart
_ _ _ _ He said, _ [Am] _ how could it come to this?
I'm really worried [D] about [Am] living

And _ _ _ _ _ [G] like today, _ _ [D] oh, _ [A] oh
_ _ _ _ _ Then there [G] came a day
_ _ [D] Moon _ _ [Am] _
across the _ [Em] Mediterranean
Came to [G] Western Isles
And [D] the Greek _ young man
_ _ _ _ With the [G] silver beards
They [D] laughed _ [Am] at the unknown of [Em] the universe
They could [G] just sit and [D] guess _ [Am] God's hand

_ Then _ _ there [G] followed a day
Of [D] kings, _ _ [Am] _
empires and _ [Em] revolutions
Blood just [G] looks the same
With [D] open _ _ [Am]
veins
_ _ _ _ Sometimes [G] it was faith, _ [D] power
_ [Am] Or reason as [Em] the cornerstone
[E] But the [G]
furrowed brow [D] has never left [Am] his face
_ _ _ _ He said, _ _ how could it come to this?
_ We're living in a _ landslide
_ How could it come to this?

_ _ [D] Oh, _ _ [Am]

_ Then _ there [G] came a day
_ [D] Man _ _ [A]
packed up, flew up [Em] from the planet
He went [G] to the moon, _ [D] to _ [Am] the moon
_ _ _ _ Now [G] he's out in _ space, [D] hey
_ _ [Am] _
Fixing all [Em] the problems
He comes [G] face to face _ [D] with _ _ [Am] _
God

_ I'm really worried [D] about my [Am]
creation
_ How did it come to this?
_ You're really killing [D] me, [C] you know

_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ Many years ago
_ [D] He _ [Am] looked out through a [Em] glass's window
Didn't [G]
understand _ _ [D] _ much of [Am] what he saw _ _ _ _ _ _ _
