[Verse]
E5                     E5 , E5
From the ragged fence
       C#5         C#madd4, C#5
to the cosmic bends
        Ab5
we have payed our way with eagerness
    A5
and forced the world to make some sense


E5                     E5 , E5
In this endless space,
        C#5            C#madd4, C#5
looking for Gods given grace
      Ab5
Among countless scattered dying stars
       A5
by the fireplaces we found some comfort


[Chorus]
        F#5
Waiting all to serve a greater purpose
D5              C#5    C#5  F#5   A5
or to join the cosmic circus now


[Verse 2]
        E5             E7M9, E5
From the garden greens
       C#5             C#madd4, C#5
to the mountain streams
       Ab5                               Ab5
We all worked the land and payed in sweat
      A5
while sweet illusions were passing by

Like fading tribe
on the ocean wide
In a random flash we live and die
Searching all religions, reason why

[Chorus]
Waiting all to serve a greater purpose
or to join the cosmic circus now

[Verse 3] (Same as Verse 2)
From the habbit hole, to the frozen poles
we have filled our hearts with poetry
while science was our leading star

On to million suns
where our fading memories dance
While we try so hard to understand
the untold genesis of man

[Chorus]
Waiting all to serve a greater purpose
or to join the cosmic circus now
