[A] [E/A] [A] Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
[A] [E/A] [A] I could see the city light
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Wind was blowing, time stood still
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Eagle flew out of the night

[A] [E/A] [A] He was something to observe
[A] [E/A] [A] Came in close, I heard a voice
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Standing stretching every nerve
[F#m] [E] [F#m] I had to listen had no [Dmaj7]choice

[E/D]I did not [Dmaj7]believe the informa[Dmaj7]tion
[E/D] Just had [Dmaj7]to trust imagina[B7sus2]tion
[E]My heart [B7sus2]going boom boom, boom

[B7sus2]Son, [E] he said[B7sus2]
Bm7 A/C# D E A (riff)
Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

Eh, don't quit

[A] [E/A] [A] To keeping silence I resigned
[A] [E/A] [A] My friends would think I was a nut
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Turning water into wine
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Open doors would soon be shut

[A] [E/A] [A] So I went from day to day
[A] [E/A] [A] Though my life was in a rut
[F#m] [E] [F#m] 'till I thought of what I'd say
[F#m] [E] [F#m] Which connection I should [Dmaj7]cut

[E/D] I was [Dmaj7]feeling part of the scene[Dmaj7]ry
[E/D]I walked [Dmaj7]right out of the machinery
[B7sus2] [E]My heart [B7sus2]was going boom boom boom

[B7sus2]Hey, [E] he said[B7sus2]
Bm7 A/C# D E A (riff)
Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

Yeah back home

[A] [E/A] [A] When illusion spin her net
[A] [E/A] [A] I'm never where I want to be
[F#m] [E] [F#m] And liberty she pirouette
[F#m] [E] [F#m] When I think that I am free

[A] [E/A] [A] Watched by empty silhouettes
[A] [E/A] [A] Who close their eyes, but still can see
[F#m] [E] [F#m] No one taught them etiquette
[F#m] [E] [F#m] I will show another [Dmaj7]me

[E/D]Today [Dmaj7]I don't need a replace[Dmaj7]ment
[E/D]I'll tell them [Dmaj7]what the smile on my face [B7sus2]meant
[E]My heart [B7sus2]going boom boom boom

[B7sus2]Hey, [E] I said[B7sus2]
Bm7 A/C# D E A (riff)
You can keep my things, they've come to take me home
