G              D        G         D
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill

G               D    Em
I could see the city lights

Em                 D          Em
Wind was blowing, time stood still

Em              D     C        D
Eagle flew out of the night

G                D   G
He was something to observe

G               D       Em
Came in close, I heard a voice

Em                   D     Em
Standing stretching every nerve

Em             D      C
Had to listen had no choice

C
 I did not believe the  information

Cmaj7
 I just had to trust   imagination

C                 Em
   My heart going boom boom boom

C           Em
  "Son," he said

C          G
"Grab your things,

     D                G
I've come to take you home
[Instrumental] Section A (1X), then Section B (1X) [Verse]
    G              D   G         D
To keep in silence I resigned

   G                     D     Em
My friends would think I was a nut

Em            D    Em
Turning water into wine

Em               D    C
Open doors would soon be shut

G              D      G
So I went from day to day

G                D   Em
Tho' my life was in a rut

Em                 D        Em
'Til I thought of what I'd say

Em               D        C
Which connection I should cut

C
  I was feeling part of the scenery

Cmaj7
I walked right out of the machinery

C              Em
My heart going boom boom boom

C          Em
  "Hey" he said

C          G
"Grab your things,

     D                G
I've come to take you home
[Instrumental] Section A (1X), then Section B (1X) [Verse]
G              D       G         D
When illusion spin her net

    G             D      Em
I'm never where I want to be

    Em          D     Em
And liberty she pirouette

Em                D    C        D
When I think that I am free

G                D      G
watched by empty silhouettes

    G
Who close their eyes

    D         Em
but still can see

Em                  D  Em
No one taught them etiquette

Em            D     C
I will show another me

C
Today I don't need a replacement

Cmaj7
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant

C              Em
My heart going boom boom boom

C          Em
  "Hey" I  said

        C       G
You can keep my things

        D               G
they’ve come to take me home
