_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I was _ raised up believing I was somehow _ unique, like [Eb] a _ snowflake, distinct among snowflakes,
unique in each way you could [Eb] see.
And now _ after some thinking, I'd [Ab] say _ [Cm] I'd rather be _ [Eb] a functioning cog in some great [Ab] machinery,
serving something beyond me.
But I _ don't know what _ _ _ _ _ that will be.
[Eb] I'll get [Ab] back to [Eb] you someday [Ab] _
soon.
_ You [Eb] will see. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ What's my name?
What's my station?
Oh, [Ab] just tell me what I should do.
[Eb] I don't need to be kind to the armies of night that [Ab] would do such injustice to you.
Or bow down and be grateful, and say, sure, take all that you see.
To [Eb] the men who move on me in dimly lit halls [Ab]
determine my future [Eb] for me.
And I _ don't have _ _ _ _ _ _ to _ [Ab] believe I'll get back to you [Ab] someday _ soon.
You will [Eb] _ see.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ If I know only one thing, it's [Ab] that _ everything that I see _ [Eb] of the world outside is so inconceivable,
[Ab] often I barely [Eb] can speak.
Yeah, I'm _ tired and dizzy, and [Ab] I can't keep it to myself.
[Eb] What good is it to sing helplessness blues?
[Ab] Why should I wait for anyone [Eb] else?
And I _ know I'll _ _ _ keep me on the show.
I'll come back [Ab] to [Eb] you someday [Ab] _
soon.
_ _ _ _ [Eb] At last.

_ _ _ _ _ If I had [F] an _ orchard, _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] I'd work till [Fm] I'm _ numb. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] If [Ab] I had an [Eb] orchard, I'd [F] work till I'm sore.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ New wood weight _ tables and soon run sore. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb]
Gold hair in the [Fm] _ sunlight, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] my light in the [Fm] _ dark.
_ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb]
If [Ab] I [F] had an orchard, I'd work till I'm [Ab] sore.
_ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ If [F] I had an [Eb] orchard, I'd work till [Ab] I'm sore.

_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
Someday I'll be like the man on [Ab] the screen.
