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


[Chorus]
         B   
Hey back home
           B                 
To keep in silence I resigned
                               G#m G#m7
My friends would think I was a nut ■   
G#m                    
Turning water into wine
                         B   
Open doors would soon be shut
               B         
So I went from day to day
                        G#m
Though my life was in a rut
G#m7                          
'til I thought of what I'd say
      G#m                 Emaj7
Which connection I should cut  
E             Emaj7              
I was feeling part of the scenery
         E                          F#
I walked right out of the machinery ■ 
               C#m7        
My heart going Boomboomboom
    F# C#m7
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
                G#m7      
I'm never where I wanna be
                G#m      
And liberty she pirouette
                       B   
When I think that I am free


[Chorus]
           B                
Watched by empty silhouettes
                     G#m              
Who close their eyes but still can see
G#m7                             
■    No one taught them etiquette
G#m                   
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
        C#m7                                       
You can keep my things they've come to take me home
