by Mike Pinder
from 'Seventh Soujourn'
Intro:
[Dm] [/] [/] [/]
[Dm]I woke up today, I was [G]crying,
[Dm]Lost in a [G]lost world,
[Dm]Cos' so many people are [G]dying,
[Dm]Lost in a [G]lost world.
[Dm]Some of them are living an [DmMaj7/C#]illusion,
[Dm]Bounded by the darkness of their [Bb]minds,
[Gm]In their eyes, it's nation against [A7]nation against nation,
With [Dm]racial pride, [Gm]sad hearts they hide
[A7]Thinking only of [Dm]themselves, they shun
The light. [Gm]They think they're right
[A7]Living in their empty[Dm] shells.
[Gm]Oh... [C]can you see their world is [F]crashing (...so many people...)
[Em]Crashing down around their feet
[A7]And angry people in the street,
[Dm]Are telling them they've had their fill
[A7]Of politics that wound and kill
[Gm]Grow, [C]the seeds of evo[F]lution
[Em]Revolution never won
[A7]It's just another form of gun
[Dm]To do again what they have done
[Gm]With all our brothers' [A7]youngest [Bb]sons.
Solo:
[Dm]Dm [/]/ [/]G [/]/ 3x
[Dm]Everywhere you go you'll see them [DmMaj7/C#]searching
[Dm]Everywhere you turn you'll feel [Bb]the pain
[Gm]Everyone is looking for the [A7]answer
[Dm]We'll look again, [Gm]come on my friend
[A7]Love will find them in [Dm]the end
[Dm]Come on my friend we've [Gm]got to bend
[A7]On our knees and say a [Dm]prayer.
[Gm]Oh [C]can you feel the world is [F]pining
[Em]Pining for someone who really cares,
[A7]Enough to share his love,
[Dm]With all of us. So we can be
[A7]An ever loving family.
[Gm]Ahh [C]Have you forgotten we're all [F]children
[Em]Children from a family tree
[A7]That's longer than a centipede
[Dm]And started long ago when you
And [Gm]I were only [A]love[Bb]-
Outro:
[Dm] [/] [/] [/]
[Dm]I woke up today, I was [G]crying,
[Dm]Lost in a [G]lost world,
[Dm]Cos' so many people are [G]dying,
[Dm]Lost in a [G]lost world
