[Verse]
[G]Climbing up on [D]Solsbury [G]Hill[D]
[G]I could see the [D]city [Em]lights
[Em]Wind was blowing, t[D]ime stood s[Em]till
[Em]Eagle flew out o[D]f the [C]night[D]
[G]He was something [D]to o[G]bserve
[G]Came in close, I[D] heard a[Em] voice
[Em]Standing stretching e[D]very n[Em]erve
[Em]Had to listen h[D]ad no c[C]hoice
[C] I did not believe the information
[Cmaj7] I just had to trust imagination
[C] My heart going [Em]boom boom boom
[C] "Son," he [Em]said
[C]"Grab your [G]things,
I've [D]come to take you [G]home
[Instrumental]
Section A (1X), then Section B (1X)
[Verse]
To k[G]eep in silence [D]I re[G]signed[D]
My [G]friends would think I [D]was a [Em]nut
[Em]Turning water [D]into [Em]wine
[Em]Open doors would [D]soon [C]be shut
[G]So I went from [D]day to [G]day
[G]Tho' my life was [D]in a[Em] rut
[Em]'Til I thought of w[D]hat I'd s[Em]ay
[Em]Which connection [D]I should [C]cut
[C] I was feeling part of the scenery
[Cmaj7]I walked right out of the machinery
[C]My heart going [Em]boom boom boom
[C] "Hey" he [Em]said
[C]"Grab your [G]things,
I've [D]come to take you [G]home
[Instrumental]
Section A (1X), then Section B (1X)
[Verse]
[G]When illusion s[D]pin her [G]net[D]
I'm [G]never where I [D]want to[Em] be
And [Em]liberty she [D]piroue[Em]tte
[Em]When I think that [D]I am [C]free[D]
[G]watched by empty [D]silhoue[G]ttes
Who [G]close their eyes
but [D]still can [Em]see
[Em]No one taught them e[D]tiq[Em]uette
[Em]I will show an[D]other [C]me
[C]Today I don't need a replacement
[Cmaj7]I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
[C]My heart going [Em]boom boom boom
[C] "Hey" I [Em]said
You can [C]keep my [G]things
theyâ??v[D]e come to take m[G]e home
