Chords

[Intro] A C A C A [Verse 1]
Amaj7
The rollerball winds up

   D
As smooth as motion

Amaj7
The siren sings rhymes

D
From the rollicking ocean

Dm
When the rollerball stops

   A            G    A
As sure as your death

Dm
The sirens don’t sing

          A          G     A
They just hold their breath
[Chorus 1]
      E            A
Don’t press, don’t push

G                 A
There’s no way of knowing

E
Get right with the world

        G     A          E G A
And the great unscrolling
[Verse 2]
Amaj7
The cinema of thought

   D
As Steady as a stream

Amaj7
Hums what you’ve got

  D
A cascade of dreams

Dm
But when the water pools

   A            G    A
As sure as your luck

Dm
The current plunges under

    A           G    A
You sink in the stuck
[Chorus 2]
      E            A
Don’t press, don’t push

G                 A
There’s no way of showing

E
Get right with your God

        G     A
And the great unscrolling
[Bridge] E G A E G C E C E C E G A G A G A [Verse 3]
Amaj7
The rate that you breathe

     D
Pump oxygen from air

Amaj7
That comes from some place

     D
That comes from somewhere

Dm
When you speak at

    A              G    A
the speed that you think

Dm
You’ll have no need

   A          G    A
To stutter or blink
[Chorus 3]
      E            A
Don’t press, don’t push

G                  A
Just flow with the going

E
Get right with yourself

        G     A
And the great unscrolling
[Outro] E G A E G A E G A
