[Intro] A D A [Verse 1]
      A                         D                A
I'm playing my guitar while my sister bangs the jar

      A                                E7
The glass sets up a sound like people laughing

      A                         D              A
It's going to my brain and it's easing all my pain

        D                E                   D  A  D A D A D A
I must hear this sound again 'cause time is passing
[Verse 2]
      A                         D                A
I'm walking by the sea and the shingle sings for me

      A                                E7
The crabs are swimming down among the starfish

      A                              D            A
The rocks all clatter down and the seagulls fly around

          D                E                   D  A  D A D A D A
But the whole trip rubs it in that time is passing, passing
[Chorus]
 G       D             A
Find it, I got to hear it all again

    G                   D             A
My heart has heard the sound of harmony

  D                 A
Blind to it, as my tears fall again

     G            D    G D          A
It's only by the music     I'll be free
[Instrumental] A D A A E7 A D A D E D A D A D A D A [Bridge]
         D
There's something in the whisper of the trees
Millions hear it, still they can't believe
          A               G              A   G D
There are echoes of it splashing in the waves

      A          G                     D
As an empire of dead men leave their graves
[Verse 3]
      A                             D                     A
Don't listen to people talk, don't listen to 'em selling souls

      A                                E7
Don't listen to me or words from men above

      A                                D                A
Don’t hear it in your needs and don’t hear it in your greeds

        D                E            D  A  D A D A D A
Just hear it in the sound of time a-passing
[Chorus]
 G       D             A
Find it, I got to hear it all again

    G                   D             A
My heart has heard the sound of harmony

  D                 A
Blind to it, as my tears fall again

     G                 D  G D          A
But it's only by the music    I'll be free
[Outro] A D A A E7 A D A D E D A D A D A D A
