[Verse]
         B                  
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
                Abm       
I could see the city light
                            Abm  
Wind was blowing time stood still
                      B    
Eagle flew out of the night
       B                   
He was something to observe
              B              
Came in close I heard a voice
                          B    
Standing stretching every nerve
  Abm                        
I had to listen had no choice
  E                              
I did not believe the information
                  Emaj7      
Just had to trust imagination
Gb       Emaj7 E           
My heart going Boomboomboom
Abm Gb     
Son he said


[Chorus]
Abm                                    B   
Grab your things I've come to take you home
         B   
Hey back home
           B                 
To keep in silence I resigned
                               Abm Abm7
My friends would think I was a nut ■   
Abm                    
Turning water into wine
                         B   
Open doors would soon be shut
               B         
So I went from day to day
                        Abm
Though my life was in a rut
Abm7              Abm      Abm7
'til I thought of what I'd say 
      Abm                 Emaj7
Which connection I should cut  
E                         Emaj7  
I was feeling part of the scenery
               E                    Gb
I walked right out of the machinery ■ 
               Gb          
My heart going Boomboomboom
Dbm7 Gb Dbm7
Hey  he said
          B      E                     B   
Grab your things I've come to take you home
         B   
Hey back home

[Verse]
     B                    
When illusion spin her net
                Abm7      
I'm never where I wanna be
    Abm                  
And liberty she pirouette
                       B   
When I think that I am free


[Chorus]
        B                   
Watched by empty silhouettes
                     Abm              
Who close their eyes but still can see
Abm7                             
■    No one taught them etiquette
Abm                   
I will show another me
E                               
Today I don't need a replacement
                                    Emaj7     
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
         Emaj7             
My heart going Boomboomboom
Emaj7     
Hey I said
        Dbm7                                   B   
You can keep my things they've come to take me home
