B5                     F#5
No one knows where the ladder goes
B5                            F#5
You're going to lose what you love the most
E5                  G5
You're not alone in anything
E5                   G5
You're not unique in dying
B5                     F#5
I feel estranged every now and then
B5                  F#5
Fall asleep reading science fiction
E5                    G5
I want to fly in your silver ship
E5                 G5      A5
Let Jesus hang and Buddha sit

D5
It's on now
             F#5
The days are long now
                G5
The ups and the sundowns
               A5
And a twisting mind
               D5
If I've got to go first
              F#5
I'll do it on my terms
             G5                        A5
I'm tired of traitors always changing sides
          D5       A5  G5
They were friends of mine

B5                       F#5
Don't hang around as the promise breaks
B5                       F#5
You'll be there when the next one's made
E5                 G5
Kiss the feet of a charlatan
E5             G5
Some imagined freedom
B5              F#5
All the rest is predictable
B5                     F#5
You can say you're the first to know
E5                 G5
Bought a mantra to concentrate
E5           G5       A5
Car alarm or hissing snake

D5
I know now
                  F#5
How it's going to turn now
           G5
You got to calm down
                A5
Or I'll lose my place
                  D5
Got to get to the center
                  F#5
Got to get to the concert
               G5
Run off with a dancer
             A5
Going to celebrate

E5                A5
We'll welcome the new age
D5          G5  G/f# E5
Covered in warrior paint
                A5             D5
Lights from the jungle to the sky
E5         A5
See now, a star's born
D5                 G5    G/f# E5 
Looks just like a blood orange
              A5                D5
Don't it just make you want to cry
          D5     A5  G5
Precious friend of mine?

B5                     F#5
Well, I know when it's finally done
B5                     F#5
This whole life's a hallucination
E5                  G5
You're not alone in anything
E5                  G5
You're not alone in trying 
B5
To be
