             C5           
    Far and away from all 
                  B5
    the brightest sunbeams
                 A5             
    You chose to stay and fight 
             D5
    from the inside outside
    G     Bm
    Don\'t fight
                  Em7        
    Make like the cutest owl 
                 D
    and use your feathers
                  C            
    Make like the elephant and 
             Bm7              C
    use your memory to pick a path
                  Am
    Make like the sleeping bird
             G         D
    Dreaming of the morning
    
    [Chorus]
    C                      Bm
    Everybody gets an even shot 
    at seeing heaven
    C           G
    Wide is the gate
    C                      Bm
    Everybody gets an even shot 
    at seeing heaven
    C           G

    Pray, hey
                E5         
    God doesn\'t care about 
                   D5
    the way you\'re leaning
                 C5

    you know yourself

               Em7       
    We will be justified 
                D
    without the struggle
               C                      Bm7
    We will be recognised for what we do
                      Am7
    Not criticised or hated just 
    for the way you are
             G    D
    You will be a star
    
    [Chorus]
    C                      
    Listen to the music of 
        Bm
    the traffic in the city
    C              G
    Singing to the hope inside you
    C                      
    Listen to the music of 
        Bb
    the traffic in the city
    C              G
    Singing to the hope
    C                      Bm
    Everybody gets an even shot 
    at making heaven
    C           G
    Wide is the gate

    [Verse 1]
    Am                     Em
     I\'m looking through a portal
    Am                      Em
     It\'s got eyes and a mastery 
     of gravity
    Am               G
     I\'m lucky to be here now
          C
    I was lonely
    D           E
    Talk to me, talk to me
    Am                     Em
     I\'ve got a new perspective
    Am               Em
     The glass in my hand 
     it ain\'t exactly full
    Am               G
     The place at my table
          C
    Is an empty stool
    D           F       E     E5
    Talk to me, talk to me-e-e
    
    [Chorus]
    B             Em        
     Confusion is trying to 
                    B
     take a hold of me
                     Em    
    All I wanted was peace 
             C
    inside a sanctuary
    G               B  
    I lived my life so 
                    Em
    desperate to be in control
     C                      G
    Scared of getting hurt again
                                   D
    But now I realise it\'s all for nothing 
    all for nothing!

    Am                      Em
     I\'m like the bugs that sleep 
     for years
    Am              Em
     Conditions are ripe, 
     they fly into the sun
    Am             G
     The spectacle gets to you
            C
    Life is always new
    D           E
    Talk to me, talk to me
    Am              Em
     From my waking sleep I fear
    Am                  Em
     You\'re planning to prise 
     yourself away from me
    Am                  G
     You\'re planning to exit 
     from my misery
      C
    I can take a lot
            D            
    But I\'m not prepared 
       F         E    E5
    to face the alone

    But now I realise it\'s all for nothing

    A5                  E5
     All I want is your hand on mine
    A5             E5
     Slow rubbing, ecstasy of company
    A5              G5
     I\'m facing the lonely night
            C5
    With my fading sight
    D5          E5
    Talk to me, talk to me
    A5            E5
     Many times I faced the wall
    A5                E5
     I called for the peace and 
     now I\'ve got it all
    A5                G5
     Peace grows into anguish
              C5
    When your heart leaks
    D5          F5      E     E5
    Talk to me, talk to me-e-e

     Delusions are all my present currency

    They\'re causing the poison 
          C         G
    in my veins and voices
            B                    Em
    Hearing voices telling me to beat 
    the clock
       C                     G
    Doctor please release me now
                                    
    I can\'t afford to waste another
