| A | |
| Out in the land where my dreams flew around |
| D | |
| I bulldozed the trees and set my feet on the ground |
| A | |
| Put a day in and a week would come out |
| D | |
| I didn't have time for doubt |
| A | |
| Then when the whole thing went down the drain |
| D | |
| I learned that the future don't always obey |
| A | |
| Now I'm afraid to get back in the pool |
| D | |
| Somehow I'd feel like a fool |
| Chorus |

| Verse |
| High in the morning with climbing to do |
| High in the turrets I'm thinking of you |
| Everybody says it's all for the best |
| Somehow I wouldn't have guessed |
| Little dominions turn into dust |
| Schemes blow away on a breeze of mistrust |
| I'm not feeling sorry for little ol' me |
| But I'm not about to be |
| Makin' a Plan |

| Bm | D | |
| Stop, you work your way up til y | ou drop |
| F# | |
| Down down until your ears go pop |
| E | |
| What were we gonna do at the top | ? |
| |A |D |etc etc |
| I forgot |
| A | |
| Now I can sit and watch the time fly |
| D | |
| And I'll feel better when tears have gone by |
| A | |
| I'll never again be blindsided by fate |
| Bm | |
| The future will have to wait |
| D | |
| I only have time for today |
| Bm | |
| As long as I can delay |
| A | D | |
