[A] Mmm, [C#m] mmm, mmm, [D] mmm, [F#m] mmm, mmm
[Bm] [E] [G#]
[A] [C#m]
[D] [F#m] [Bm] [E]
[A] I sat before [C#m] the wise [D] man in the yard
[A] And I told him [C#m] all the things [D] I had to know
[E]
[F#m] He said, you have the [C#m] future if [D] you need to find [A] the truth
[Bm] And in his eyes [D] I saw that [A] it was so
[D]
[E] [A] So I came right [C#m] out and asked him [D] the meaning [A] of life
And as he smiled I saw [C#m] a twinkle [D] in his eye
[E]
He [F#] said, with [C#m] all his years there's still [D] so much he [A] has to learn
[Bm] And once again [D] I saw that [A] it was so
Keep [G] on living, [F#m] [Em] [D] waiting your time
[G] Is the only way [F#m] to [Em] ease [D] your concern
If [F#m] you want to find your [E] dream, be sure [F#m] you don't [E] wake up too soon
[F#m] You'll find it easier [E] shooting [D] for the moon
[A] Wise man, [C#m] [D] wise man, which way shall I [A] run?
There's [C#m] so many roads, [D] so many ways [A] to turn
[D]
[A] I [C#m] could be [D] [F] lost in the sun [A] like you
[F#m] And be a wise man too
[D] But I'm looking for [Dm] an easy [A] way to learn
Wise [C#m] man, wise [D] man, which way shall [A] I run?
[C#m] There's so many roads, [D] so many ways [A] to turn
Lost [C#m] [D] [F] in the sun, [A] [F#m] I'll be a wise man too
[D] But I'm looking for [Dm] an easy way [A] to learn
[D] [A]
[D] Oh, wise man
[A]
[D] [A] Oh,
[D] wise man
[A] I [D] wanna be like you, [A] yeah
And [D] be a wise man too
[A]
I [D] wanna be like you, yeah
[A] Oh, [D] [A] [C#m] wise [D] man, which way shall [A] I run?
[C#m] There's so many roads, [D] so many ways [A] to turn
I'm [C#m]
[D] lost [F] in the sun [A] like you
And [F#m] be a wise man too
Like [A] you, and [F#m] be a wise man too
[D] But I'm looking for [Dm] an easy way [A] to learn
