Intro: E5   E5   A5   G5   A5    F#5    B5    B5 (Hold 4 bars)
**Piano; Acoustic Gtr. Enters 2nd Bar:  E
E5   C5        D5                   A5
My, my the clock in the sky is pounding away
        E5               (Organ Fill: E5 A5 E7(No3) A5 )
There's so much to say
   E5        C5        D5               A5
A face, a voice, an overdub has no choice
        E5
And it cannot rejoice


 A5         /G5     D5       E5
Wanting to be, to hear and to see
 A5     /G5        D5
Crying    to the sky
         E5          E5        A5       D5
But the porpoise is laughing goodbye, goodbye
 G5                     D5 (Vocals Imply D5 )
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Break:  Bass, Doubled W/Strings

E5   C5        D5                   A5
Clicks, clacks, riding the backs of giraffes for laughs
        E5               (Organ Fill: E5 A5 E7(No3) A5 )
Is all right for a while
   E5        C5        D5               A5
The ego sings of castles and kings and things
        E5
That go with a life of style


 A5         /G5     D5       E5
Wanting to feel, to know what is real
 A5     /G5        D5
Living    is a lie
         E5          E5        A5       D5
The porpoise is waiting, goodbye, goodbye
 G5                     D5 (Vocals Imply D5 )
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Coda:
 G5                     D5
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
 G5                    B5  (45 Ends Cold)
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
