[Intro] F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 D#5 [Verse 1]
F#5          E5   F#5       D#5       G#5    D#5
I fought my feelings and got in the way,

F#5         E5   F#5       D#5         G#5     D#5
Could've been easier like a decade of days.

F#5       E5       F#5       D#5             G#5    D#5
Projection, young marriage, lighting the stage,

F#5       E5   F#5       D#5          G#5    D#5
I wanted feelings, that got in my own way.  Oh!
F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 D#5 [Verse 2]
F#5              E5 F#5 D#5                G#5     D#5
Then wrote that letter that had nothing to say,

F#5       E5 F#5       D#5         G#5     D#5
Staccato vision like a kingdom of days.

F#5         E5   F#5       D#5         G#5     D#5
All lonely, or not lonely, century away,

F#5         E5   F#5       D#5         G#5     D#5
But still a vision as if help's on its way.  Oh!
F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 A#5 [Chorus]
F#                             G#
Someone, who will lead you to someone,

                         A#m
Who will lead you to someone.

                      F#
Who will lead you to the one,
At the end of the century. G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 A#5 F#5 G#5 D#5 [Verse 3]
F#5         E5   F#5  D#5         G#5     D#5
The air is clearer a decade away, Oh!

F#5         E5   F#5     D#5              G#5     D#5
Singing to a mountain, that was empty all along.

F#5         E5   F#5       D#5           G#5     D#5
All lonely, young marriage, lighting the way,  Oh!

F#5         E5   F#5       D#5         G#5     D#5
She wanted feelings that got in her own way.  Oh!
[Vocals] F#5 G#5 A#5 x10 [Chorus]
F#                               G#
Someone, who will lead you to someone,

                        A#m
Who will lead you to someone.

                     F#
Who will lead you to the one,
At the end of the century.
F#                               G#
Someone, who will lead you to someone,

                        A#m
Who will lead you to someone.

                     F#
Who will lead you to the one,
At the end of the century.
F#                               G#
Someone, who will lead you to someone,

                        A#m
Who will lead you to someone.

                     F#
Who will lead you to the one,
At the end of the century. (STOP.) [Bridge] F# Fm A#m F# Fm D#m G# (x2) [Epilogue] (Jarvis Cocker)
F# Fm       A#m    F# Fm          D#m G#
A century,         how long is that?

F# Fm       A#m
Three billion, one hundred and fifty five million,

F# Fm                           D#m        G#
Nine hundred and seventy three thousand, six hundred seconds.

F# Fm         A#m
Eight hundred and seventy six million hours,

F# Fm                             D#m       G#
Or thirty six thousand, five hundred days.

F#     Fm            A#m                        F#    Fm
Almost as long as one of those endless dark nights of the soul,

D#m G#
Those nights that never end. (A century)

F# Fm                      A#m
When you believe you'll never see the sun rise again,

F#          Fm           D#m           G#
When a single second feels like a century.  (A century)
