[A]
Lindbergh left Long Island in
[G] 1927, [E] thumbed his [F#] nose at [E] gravity [D] and [A] climbed into the heavens.
[D] When he returned to Earth that night, [C] everything [Bm] had changed.
[A] [G] For the pilot and [D] the planet, [A] everything [E] was rearranged.
[A] We're a pretty mixed up bunch of crazy [G] human [D] beings.
[E] It's written on our rocket ships [A] and in early [E] cave [A] wall scenes.
[D] How does it happen?
[C] How do [Bm] we know?
[G] Who sits [D] and watches?
[Bm] Who does [C#m] the show?
[D] Some [A] people love to [C] lead, some [G] refuse to dance.
[Gm] Some play [D] it safely, [A] others take a chance.
[D] Still it's all [A] a mystery, [F] this place we call [C] the world.
Where [E] most live [F#m] is oyster, [G] while some [A] become pearls.
Elvis was the only man from Northeast [G] Mississippi
who [E] could shake his hips and still be [Bm] loved by [A] rednecks, cops [E] [A] and hippies.
[D] It's something [E] more [D] than DNA [C] that tells us who [Bm] we are.
[G] It's method and [D] it's magic, [Bm] we are of the [C#m] star.
[D] Some [A] never fade away, [C] some crash [G] and burn.
[Gm] Some make [D] the world go round, others [A] watch it turn.
[D] Still it's [A] all a mystery, [F] this place we call [C] the world.
[E] Most are fine [F#m] as oysters, [G] while some [A] become pearls.
