Verse: Am E Imagine, the girls around town assemble Em The traveler’s son they come askin’ Dm Where he came from Am ‘Cause they’ve watched him G Washing his face near the pond Em A curious boy and they wonder Dm Where he came from Am G G7 E7 He says: “I, I have seen the world’s most beautiful places Dm Am Still I feel, as If I’m a walking machine G Watching it all through a screen E Dm There is nothing in between to me Am This might as well not be real” Bridge: Am G E Dm Oh oh oh oh oh no hm hm hm oh oh oh oh hm hm hm hm Verse: Am E Imagine, the girls take him up on a hill Em It’s an Indigo night, there’s a chill Dm Am The boy is confused but he’s still G As they gather around him E So many of them, they all sing Dm About the pleasures of life Am G E Dm And he cries: "Why can’t I sing along with some feeling, or some meaning? Am It feels like I’ve always been blind. G I don’t know why you girls are so kind E For there are so many in line Dm Am Whose lives aren’t as lost as mine” Bridge: Am G E Dm Oh oh oh oh oh no hm hm hm oh oh oh oh hm hm hm hm Outro: Am G Now something happened there E The smell of the grass, or maybe the air Dm There was no more despair Am G Just something about that night E Maybe the girls, they lit some light Dm And made everything right F ‘Cause he’s never been E Am More alive
