Intro: E   E7/D   A/C#   G   A    F#    B    B7M (Hold 4 bars)
**Piano; Acoustic Gtr. Enters 2nd Bar:  E
E   C        D                   A
My, my the clock in the sky is pounding away
        E               (Organ Fill: E A/E E7(No3) A/E )
There's so much to say
   E        C        D               A
A face, a voice, an overdub has no choice
        E
And it cannot rejoice


 A         /G     D/F#       Esus4
Wanting to be, to hear and to see
 A     /G        D/F#
Crying    to the sky
         E          E7/D        A/C#       D
But the porpoise is laughing goodbye, goodbye
 G                     D (Vocals Imply D9 )
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Break:  Bass, Doubled W/Strings

E   C        D                   A
Clicks, clacks, riding the backs of giraffes for laughs
        E               (Organ Fill: E A/E E7(No3) A/E )
Is all right for a while
   E        C        D               A
The ego sings of castles and kings and things
        E
That go with a life of style


 A         /G     D/F#       Esus4
Wanting to feel, to know what is real
 A     /G        D/F#
Living    is a lie
         E          E7/D        A/C#       D
The porpoise is waiting, goodbye, goodbye
 G                     D (Vocals Imply D9 )
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Coda:
 G                     D
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
 G                    Bm  (45 Ends Cold)
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
