A  E/A  A
           Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
A  E/A  A
           I could see the city light
F#m E  F#m
           Wind was blowing, time stood still
F#m E  F#m
           Eagle flew out of the night

A  E/A  A
           He was something to observe
A  E/A  A
           Came in close, I heard a voice
F#m E  F#m
           Standing stretching every nerve
F#m E  F#m                        Dmaj7
           I had to listen had no choice

           E/D       Dmaj7              Dmaj7 
           I did not believe the information
        E/D         Dmaj7           B7sus2
           Just had to trust imagination
           E        B7sus2
           My heart going boom boom, boom


           B7sus2 E       B7sus2
           Son,    he said
           Bm7       A/C#         D       E        A     (riff)
           Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

           Eh, don't quit

A  E/A  A
           To keeping silence I resigned
A  E/A  A
           My friends would think I was a nut
F#m E  F#m
           Turning water into wine
F#m E  F#m
           Open doors would soon be shut

A  E/A  A
           So I went from day to day
A  E/A  A
           Though my life was in a rut
F#m E  F#m
           'till I thought of what I'd say
F#m E  F#m                           Dmaj7
           Which connection I should cut

        E/D      Dmaj7                    Dmaj7 
           I was feeling part of the scenery
           E/D      Dmaj7
           I walked right out of the machinery
    B7sus2 E        B7sus2
           My heart was going boom boom boom


           B7sus2 E       B7sus2
           Hey,    he said
           Bm7       A/C#         D       E        A     (riff)
           Grab your things, I've come to take you home.

           Yeah back home

A  E/A  A
           When illusion spin her net
A  E/A  A
           I'm never where I want to be
F#m E  F#m
           And liberty she pirouette
F#m E  F#m
           When I think that I am free


A  E/A  A
           Watched by empty silhouettes
A  E/A  A
           Who close their eyes, but still can see
F#m E  F#m
           No one taught them etiquette
F#m E  F#m                     Dmaj7
           I will show another me

           E/D   Dmaj7                 Dmaj7 
           Today I don't need a replacement
           E/D            Dmaj7                     B7sus2
           I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
           E        B7sus2
           My heart going boom boom boom
