[Intro Arpeggios] Am G Am7 C Am7 G C Am7 F G C/E [Verse 1]
D/F#    G/B     C       G
   The world began to change,

      C       Asus2     E5        Fsus2
The children moved and they had children

G          C     G
   It was all arranged

              C         Bm  Em
you couldn't live there anymore

D/F#        G/B     C         G
   All you had was that old place

        C     Asus2   E5       Fsus2
In the middle of the path of progress

G           C         G
   So they took the space, and put

     C      Bm       Em
the ceiling on the floor
[Chorus 1]
    Am         C             G           F
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue

        Am        C       Asus4/E   A/E
It was hidden so well that no one knew

Am         C        G     F
Just the place for taking in the view
[PostChorus 1] C Am F G C/E [Verse 2]
D/F#    G/B     C       G
   The view was of the sea,

C         Asus2      E5   Fsus2
Crisp and clear and neverending

G           C         G
There your soul ran free

C          Bm     Em
There you spirit soared

D/F#    G/B       C    G
   The view took you away

        C        Am    E5   Fsus2
to the boundaries of imagination

G        C     G   C       Bm     Em
Back to yesterday, back to once before
[Chorus 2]
    Am         C             G           F
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue

    Am         C   Asus4/E    A/E
A mysterious space without a clue

Am         C        G     F
Just the place for taking in the view
[PostChorus 1] C Am F G C/E [Bridge]
Am                  G
Long lives need no fortune

Am                  C
Hard lives need no fame

Am                       G
Young lives seek their freedom

C    Am    F    G   C/E
Old lives seek the same
[Verse 3]
D/F#    G/B     C       G
   The world began to change,

     C       Asus2     E5   Fsus2
and without a word of explanation

G          C       G     C        Bm        Em
Something very strange started beckoning to you

D/F#          G/B     C          G
   When they came to move your things

          C        Am      E5      Fsus2
you had packed a suitcase full of memories

G        C        G
Nothing else to bring

          C        Bm        Em
except a different point of view
[Chorus 3]
    Am         C             G           F
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue

    Am         C   Asus4/E   A/E
A mysterious space without a clue

Am         C        G     F
Just the place for taking in the view
[Outro] C Am F G C/E F C ************************************
