[C#m] Born to, born to multiply, born to [F#m] gaze into night skies, [A] I want [G#m] one [F#] more [E] Saturday.
We'll look here [C#m] on to them, they're gonna [F#] buy [F#m] your lifetime, [A] to keep the wick in the [G#m] air and your [F#m] feet in the [B] flatters to the day.
[E] Commander in card meals, we all [B] call out by ourselves, in [E] shape or a dance floor, but I'm [B] a thinker such trails through gouged walls.
[C#m] Get it [A] down, don't need one [C#m] of our skill, [A] face of the Dodo's [E] can unburn, I [F#m] could [A] just fly, [G#m] but nothing happened every [B] time I tried.
A [E] do it's one [C#m] on the walls, selfless [F#m] to the heart, you save a club, [A] never [G#m] dreamt of [F#] such fellow [E] hands, you keep them folded [C#m] in your lap, raise them [F#m] up to pay for scraps.
[A] He loves holding you [B] down with the tips of his fingers, just the same.
You [E] recall from the ocean, we just [B] committed to lay, you [E] change blood for strength, we'll find a [B] hand so young, great for you to love.
[C#m] Get it down, [A] climbing through the wind and [C#m] things you love, you change [A] a life for any [E] ordinary [F#m] job, [A] you and [G#m] I just only need a year or [B] two to unfold.
