[Verse]
[tab]                              C
I dreamed the wind came to my house

Em            G          C             D
These are the words that fell from his mouth

     G                              C
"The king you seek, you'll find him true

    Em         G         C         D
But only if he rides the road with you"

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                             C
I stepped aboard a ship that flew

   Em          G       C      D
It took me wherever it wanted to

G                         C
Far above land, far above sea

    Em              G     C         D
The Dreamer and the Doer agreed to agree

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                                      C
I was sent to the war, stripped of my power

Em           G             C         D
Gagged and imprisoned in a tall dark tower

  G                             C
I must have cried for an age or more

       Em          G           C         D
Till I saw through tears and I found the door

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                             C
High on a cliff, in gorgeous clothes

  Em     G             C            D
A madman danced on the balls of his toes

   G                             C
Forgetting myself, I fell at the feet

       Em       G      C        D
Of the greatest fool I ever did meet

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                                 C
The stars were bright and magic afoot

       Em     G              C          D
On the summer wind, rose the sound of a flute

  G                                   C
I saw the musician, my heart knew him well

     Em      G        C         D
What happens next, no rhyme can tell

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                                    C
We came to the end of the world one day

  Em      G         C         D
A dolphin swam in a sheltered bay

  G                              C
I paid to the King what it was I owed

       Em          G           C           D
Put my face to the wind and my foot on the road

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
Further up, further in

                              C
I find I've wandered far from home

    Em         G      C      D
But home is in me wherever I roam

  G                                  C
I thought I was an hour, or a year behind

        Em            G         C    D
But the hours and the years are only time

G       Am          G    Am  D G D
Further up, further in

G       Am          G    Am  D G
