Climbing up on Salisbury Hill, I could see the city [F#] light.
[G#m] Wind was blowing, time stood still.
Eagle flew out, out [B] the night.
He was something to observe.
Came in close, I [G#m] heard a voice.
Standing, stretching every nerve.
[F#] [G#m] Had to listen, had no [F#] choice.
I did [E] not believe the information.
[E] Just had to trust [G#m] imagination.
My [E] heart going boom, boom, [G#m] boom.
Son, he said, grab your things, I'm gonna take [B] you home.
Everywhere.
To keep in silence, I resigned.
My friends would think I was another.
[G#m]
Turning water into [F#] wine.
[G#m]
Open doors would [B] soon be shut.
So I went from day to day.
All my life was in a rut.
[G#m] Till I thought of what I'd say.
Which connections I should cut.
[E] I was feeling part of the scenery.
I walked right out of the machinery.
[C#m] My heart going boom, boom, boom.
Hey, [F#] he said, [B] grab your things, I'm gonna take you home.
Day by day.

Illusions in a net.
[F#] [B]
[F#] [G#m] A liberty she threw away.
We now think [B] that I am free.
Lost my empty silhouette.
Who closed their eyes to still [F#] conceive.
[G#m] No one taught them etiquette.
I would show another me.
[E] The day I don't need a replacement.
I tell them with a smile on my [G#m] face.
[F#] My [C#] heart going boom, boom, [G#m] boom.
Hey, [C#m] I said, you can keep my things, they come to take [B] me home.
