D5

D5
Pilgrim across the water
A5
We are the same brother
G5                   A5
Hitchhiking back to Zion
G5                       A5
Holding our tears as we flip the album
D5
What if this leads to ruin?
A5
You got a soul, use it
G5                    A5
All this despair forgiven
G5                   A5
Rolling away on the Wheel of Sevens
D5
Sings like the Queen of Sheba
A5
Voice through a Blonde Speaker
G5                       A5
One dropping bubble and Leslie
G5                    A5
Calling me home like Haile Selassie

B5 A5 B5 A5

D5
Pilgrim beside the fire
A5
It's been a long winter
G5               A5
We got a lot in common
G5                       A5
Cover our heads as they split the atom
D5
All of our days are numbered
A5
I'll take in some comfort
G5                       A5
In knowing the wave has crested
G5                       A5
Knowing I don't have to be an exception
D5
Children they fill the bleachers
A5
One is the next Caesar
G5                   A5
Keep all their minds collected
G5
Until he comes
A5
Until he comes

E5                G5
How do you make a day in plain sight?
D5    A5         G5
Too good to be true
D5       A5       G5      A5
I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things man
D5        A5          G5       A5
I seen, I seen that tree of smoke

     D5          A5         G5         A5               
D5      A5
Yeah I seen, I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things happen
G5       A5
Happen    before

D5 A5 G5 A5 x 2

D5
Pilgrim up on the mountain
A5
Barefoot and still climbin'
G5                  A5
Filling the book of hours
G5                    A5
Day after day in the filth and squalor
D5
We are the chosen people
A5
Safe from the next evil
G5
One love!
         A5
Magnetic memory
G5
Reel after reel
A5
Spinning infinitely

E5                G5
I had the wildest dream last night
D5      A5               G5
I was swimming with you
        E5                 G5                   D5
In that cenote the Heavens made with black fire
    A5            G5
Just woke up too soon


D5       A5       G5      A5
I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things man
D5       A5            G5       A5
I seen, I seen those daytime ghosts

      D5          A5          G5        A5               
D5      A5
Yeah, I seen, I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things happen
G5     A5
Happen  before

D5 A5 G5 A5 x 2

D5       A5       G5      A5
I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things man
D5       A5           G5       A5
I seen, I seen that tree of smoke


      D5          A5          G5         A5              
D5      A5
Yeah, I seen, I seen, I seen, I seen stranger things happen
G5       A5
Happen    before
