VERSE
 
D
The clouds are red, the sky is black
The grass is high and so are we
G A
Let's dive into the night
We hide away until
D D9 D D4 D D D9 D D4
before it's over
the dream is over
D
Just give me one more cigarette
Just open up your eyes, you'll see
G
And if you want it now,
A rainbow rising all
D D9 D D4 D D D9 D D4
we'll stop the time
across the skies
 
G A D
And turning in a roundabout
And if you take me by the hand
D7 G
In a confusing scream and shout
And if you show me our land
Em A G A
The lights are flickering you say
We could be happy for a day
 
REFRAIN

Did you ever talk to Lucy in the sky?
G A D
Did you ever try to fly?
D G A G A
Take a look at the world inside her eyes

Did you ever talk to Lucy in the sky?
G A D
Did you ever get so high?
G A G A
Take a look at the world inside her eyes

END
 
D A
She will drive in your mind,
G A D
A train without a destination
D G A D D9 D D4 D D D9 D D4 D
Without a station anyway
 
G D
And if it ever gets you down
G A D
The world is turning round and round and round
G Em
It's just like being lost
A D D9 D D4 D D D9 D D4 D
and never found
 
G A D
And if you take me by the hand
D7 G
And if you show me our land
Em A G A
We could be happy for a day
