Chorus.

              G          Am          C       D        
And there's a conspiracy theory that man can fly,
         G           Am           C               D          
But then when you're near me, you start to wonder why,
               G         Am       C                    D  
That there are codes and secrets, there are truths and lies,
          G          Am              C        D      G   
Well just look a bit closer then you start to realise.

Verse 1.


And I say,
G        D          Em   C Am   
I looked out to the moon,
G          D         Em   C Am
Says we'll get their soon.
G          D                 Em           C Am
Man starts laughing, says we already have.
G          D                      Em           C 
Well could you tell me sir what's blowing that flag?

Bridge To Chorus.

           Am                               C C9
And I say, the truth's whatever you believe,
Am         C               D  
The truths whatever you perceive, yeah...

And I say,

I looked out to the lochs,

Yeah they swear it, the Scotts,
G           D                 Em                   C    Am    
It's just a hoax, it's just a way to make some cash.
G           D               Em                    C    
But in that second Franky's monster made a splash.

And I say,
G        D          Em    C Am
I looked out to the stars, 
G     D            Em   C Am
I saw Venus, I saw Mars,
G         D                Em                     C    Am
Starts to wonder if ther's more to life than home,
G         D                 Em                  C
And it is possible that we're out her all alone.

Verse 4. 


And I say,
G         D         Em  C Am
There?s a story, an ode, 
G           D         Em    C Am   
Dan Brown's ?Da Vinci Code?,
G           D                 Em                     C Am 
It caused a mess, it caused a flurry, caused a stir,
G          D               Em                C
But in the end it's just a story to be heard.

I saw Elvis just the other day,
       G           Am                C        D   
And he gave me his number but yeah I threw it away,
             G         Am             C       D 
And now they think I'm crazy that I'm going insane,

But tell me, why is his name spelt different on his grave.
