| All your h | earts now seem so f | ar from me |
| A | |
| It hardly seems to | matter now. |
| Bm | F# | |
| And the nurse will tell you | lies |
| E | F# | |
| Of a k | ingdom beyond the s | kies. |
| A | D | |
| But I am l | ost within this ha | lf-world, |
| A | |
| It hardly seems to m | atter now. |

| Old king cole was a | merry old soul, |
| D | F#m | |
| And a m | erry old soul wa | s he. |
| So he called for his pipe, |
| B | |
| And he | called for his bowl, |
| D | F#m | |
| And he | called for his fiddlers | three. |
| F#m | E | |
| But the clock, tick- | tock, |
| D | |
| On the ma | ntlepiece - |
| And I want, and I feel, and I know, and I touch, |
| E | F# | |

| F# | C# | F# C# x4 --- (very fast) |
| F# | C# | F# | F# | C# | F# |
--------------------------------------------------------
| (I recommend to play the last part like that, |
| otherwise the fast part wouldn't be playable:) |
E - 7-7-9-9-9-7 F# - 9-9-11-11-11-9 B - 7-9-9-8-7-7 C# - 9-11-11-10-9-9
| But the last F# chord play on 2-4-4-3-2-2, but I think it's obvious ;) |
| Anyway this is one of my favourite Genesis songs, I know that my work is not |
| 100% correct, but makes it able to play and sing at once, I hope you'll |
| enjoy |
| as much as I do, |
