| He spoke of lands not far, nor lands they were in his mind, |
| Of fusion captured captured high, where reasons captured his time, |
| In no time at all he took me to the gate, |
| In haste I quickly checked the time ot see if I was late, |
| I had to leave to hear your wonderous stories, |
| Had to hear your wonderous stories, |
| La la la... |

| Thanks for checking out my tab!] |
I changed the chord listed as E#m7 to Fm7. While E#m7 may be harmonically correct as the notation, the point seemed to be able to play what is notated. E#m7 did not show up in the chord scheme while Fm7 does.
