Verse 1:

 G
        I looked in the sky where an elephant's eye
 Am
        Was looking at me from a bubblegum tree
 G
        And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe
 BbEb/BbBb
        Which was letting in water (letting in water)
(letting in water)

(repeat 4/4 section of intro)

Verse 2:

I walked through a field that just wasn't real
With one hundred tin soldiers which stood at my shoulder
And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe
Which was letting in water (letting in water)
(letting in water)

Bridge:

(mellotron: E/Bb tritone, raised gradually to F#/C over 4 bars)

F Eb C (2X)
(Narration: I climbed on the back of a giant albatross
What flew through a crack in the cloud
To a place where happiness reigned all year round
And music played ever so loudly)

(mellotron: F#/C tritone, lowered gradually to E/Bb over 2 bars)

Verse 3:

I started to fall and suddenly woke
And the dew on the grass had soaked through my coat
And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe
Which was letting in water (letting in water)
(letting in water)

Coda:
