[Verse]
         B                  
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
            Gb       Abm  
I could see the city light
Abm7                                  
■    Wind was blowing time stood still
               Gb     B    
Eagle flew out of the night
       B                   
He was something to observe
              Gb      B Gb   
Came in close I heard a voice
Abm7                                
■    Standing stretching every nerve


[Chorus]
Gb Abm7          Gb           
I  had to listen had no choice
Emaj7             E   Emaj7      
I did not believe the information
E        Emaj7 E     Abm        
Just had to    trust imagination
         Db7               
My heart going Boomboomboom
Db7        
Son he said
Dbm7      B                                
Grab your things I've come to take you home

[Verse]
         B   
Hey back home
                     B       
To keep in silence I resigned
                               Abm
My friends would think I was a nut
Abm7                        
■    Turning water into wine
                         B   
Open doors would soon be shut
B                        
So I went from day to day
          Gb            Abm7
Though my life was in a rut 


[Chorus]
                  Abm7        
'til I thought of what I'd say
                          Emaj7
Which connection I should cut  
E             Emaj7 E      Emaj7  
I was feeling part  of the scenery
                          Db7      
I walked right out of the machinery
Db7                        
My heart going Boomboomboom
       Dbsus4
Hey he said  
Dbm7      B                   E            
Grab your things I've come to take you home

[Verse]
B            
Hey back home
              B           
When illusion spin her net
                        Abm
I'm never where I wanna be 
    Abm                  
And liberty she pirouette
                  B        
When I think that I am free
B                           
Watched by empty silhouettes
                                   Abm
Who close their eyes but still can see
   Abm                      
No one taught them etiquette


[Chorus]
            Abm       
I will show another me
Emaj7   E            Emaj7      
Today I don't need a replacement
                        E                     
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
Gb Db7                     
My heart going Boomboomboom
    Ebm   
Hey I said
Abm     Dbm7           E               Gb      E   
You can keep my things they've come to take me home
