[Intro]
Cadd9 Em7/B Gm6/B Dsus2/A
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 Em7/B It all came to me in the wake of a dream Gm6/B Dsus2/A Bending space and reversing the stream Cadd9 Em7/B The knowledge is mine to influence time Gm6/B Dsus2/A And avert our decline (and avert our decline) Cadd9 Em7/B We could use this to salvage mankind Gm6/B Dsus2/A Send projections into the past Cadd9 Em7/B As humanity fades in their minds Gm6/B Dsus2/A Let them know man won't last
(It all came to me in the wake of a dream)
[Chorus]
(two times, simple strumming -> advanced strumming)
Em Bm This may be our last chance Dm Am if we want man to survive Em Bm A mirror reflection Dm Am show them our world as it dies Em Bm Cut through the barrier Dm Am and do what no one has dared Em Bm Let's break the equation Dm Am E equals m c squared
[Interlude]
Cadd9 Em7/B Gm6/B Dsus2/A
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 Em7/B Our first try was a minor success Gm6/B Dsus2/A No control, I can but guess Cadd9 Em7/B We have to move now, don't know just how Gm6/B Dsus2/A No mistakes are allowed
(We can make no mistakes)
Cadd9 Em7/B I have sent it but nothing changes Gm6/B Dsus2/A Just a line in some nation lore Cadd9 Em7/B I don't know just how far it reaches Gm6/B Dsus2/A Everything's like before
(It all came to me in the wake of a dream)
[Chorus]
(two times, simple strumming -> advanced strumming)
Em Bm This may be our last chance Dm Am if we want man to survive Em Bm A mirror reflection Dm Am show them our world as it dies Em Bm Cut through the barrier Dm Am and do what no one has dared Em Bm Let's break the equation Dm Am E equals m c squared
