C F G G Will not think of torture or the rape of nature. C F G G Just today, I won't touch those sickening papers. C F G G Will just let myself bet swept away by this beautiful day. [Chorus:] C F G What for, tell me, tell me, what for? C F G What for, tell me, tell me, what for? C F G G The sunset tonight is beyond all words. C F G In the sky above the square, startling spirals dancing on air. [Chorus] [Solo] C F G G I will pass through the glass into air past those birds. C F G G In the square, I am sun, I am sky in my mind's eye. C F G Today, I will dive into foaming seas. C F G Sick fish myself and some strange debris. C F G G-G7-Am7 I would prefer to be anywhere away from here (4x) [Chorus] C F G G I will pass through the glass into air past those birds. C F G G In the square, I am sun, I am sky. [Chorus] [Whistle to end] -- '| Office: 643-9273 | || Home: 540-6736 | |,++++++++++++++++++++ ~--------------------'
