D              F            C   Am
Once upon a time, a wild God zoomed
Bm               G                      C
All through his memory in which he was entombed
        D        F                C          Am
It was rape and pillage in the retirement village
            Bm            G                        C
But in his mind he was a man of great virtue and courage

         D            F               C             Am
And he flew out the window with his long, trailing hair
         Bm             G                          C
And the smoke from the bodies went straight up in the air
           D                 F            C              Am
He was a wild God searching for what all wild Gods are searching for
        Bm                G                            C
And he flew through the dying city like a prehistoric bird

          D                 F           C         Am
He went searching for the girl down on Jubilee Street
           Bm           G       C
But sheʼd died in a bedsit in 1993
        D                     F                  C
So he flew to the top of the world and looked around
            Am                   Bm            G                           C
And said, "Where are my people? Where are my people to bring your spirit down?"

Am G Am G
Am G C D F G

D         F             C             Am
A wild God searching for a faraway girl
         Bm            G                      C
Who was basically a mirage but nevertheless loomed large
            D             F           C              Am
She would hang under the rail as he blew ʼround the room
          Bm           G                 C
And make love with a kind of efficient gloom

          D              F             C           Am
And the people on the ground cried, "When does it start?"
         Bm                   G                                        C
And the wild God says, "It starts with a heart, with a heart, with a heart, with a heart"
          D             F              C           Am
And the people on the ground cried, "When does it end?"
         Bm                         G                          C
And the wild God says, "Well, it depends, but it mostly never ends

              D         F            C        Am
ʼCause Iʼm a wild God flying and a wild God swimming
           Bm         G              C
And Iʼm an old, sick God dying and crying and singing"

                   Am
Bring your spirit down
G                                 Am       G
Oh, weʼre wild Gods, baby, weʼre wild Gods
                         Am  G
Yeah, bring your spirit down
                C
Oh, well, heʼs moving through the flames of anarchy
           D
And heʼs moving through the winds of tyranny
          F                             G                       Am   G
And the sweet, sweet tears of liberty, yeah, moving ʼround the world

                          Am                      G
Heʼs moving through your body like a prehistoric bird
                        Am   G
Heʼs moving ʼround the world
                                  C                            D
Oh Lord, well, if youʼre feeling lonely and if youʼre feeling blue
                                   F
And if you just donʼt know what to do
  G                Am
Bring your spirit down

 G                                Am      G
Oh, weʼre wild Gods, baby, weʼre wild Gods
                                 Am
Iʼm a wild God, baby, Iʼm a wild God
      G                                       C
Oh, here we go, weʼre going to the cradle of Africa
                   D
Weʼre going to Russia, weʼre going to China
         F
To the United States of America
 G                       Am      G                  Am                    G
Yeah, moving ʼround the world, yeah, moving like a great, big, beautiful bird

                         Am
Weʼre moving ʼround the world
  G                                         C
Yeah, and heʼs swimming at the end of the rotting pier
                 D
He swims to the end of his rotting idea
  F
Swim to the hymn, swim to the prayer
      G                Am  G
And bring your spirit down
                                  Am  G
Iʼm a wild God, baby, Iʼm a wild God
                         Am        G
Well, here we go, yeah, here we go
