[VERSE]

E
   I am a man
                 Am
   You fell down from that apple tree the other day with me
E           Am
   We had already forgotten, we one day crawled up from the sea
E
   Imagine now
             Am
   If we one day could build a flying contraption and see the world
        C#m
   What if we could some how store knowledge in a cloud
          C
   Draw a smiley face on the moon, find the meaning of life


[PD-C HORUS]

   E                   B
   Riding the crest of our time
                        A
   With bravado soon complete
      B    E                    B
   We will see a new one rise behind us
     A            B
   A new chance, a new world


[VERSE]

       C#m   G#m           A
   Our wave, it's about to break
E                     C#m         G#m
   And we're about to dive in the void
                 A
   It echoes our fall
E                C#m
   Our paean to avarice


[CHORUS]

G#m               A      E
   I think we're closer (ooh...)
            C#m   G#m
   To an animal (ooh...)
        A          E
   Everyday till we fall


[VERSE]

E
   Can you believe
                     Am
   We have all those eyes high in the sky and we can see the world
            C#m
   On thing truly makes me blind, the wisdom of hindsight
       C
   The eye in my own hand


[Pre-CHORUS]

   E                   B
   Riding the crest of our time
                         A
   With bravado soon complete
      B    E                    B
   We will see a new one rise behind us
     A             B          C#m
   A new chance, a new world


[CHORUS]

G#m            A       E
   I think I'm closer (ooh...)
            C#m  G#m
   To an animal (ooh...)
        A          E
   Everyday till I fall


[BRIDGE]

          D#m                  A#
   If you want it all, you can have it all
       B            C#
   But greed raises oceans too
            D#m            A#
   When the glacier of our broken dreams
   B             C#
   Melts in your champagne glass
           Fm                 C
   Someone knocks on your door four times
   Db           Eb
   Sand in your hourglass
         Fm             C
   Every grain is a day, falling
   Db           Eb
   Finding it's rightful place

   If you want it all, you can have it all
       B            F#
   But greed raises oceans too
            D#m            A#m
   When the glacier of our broken dreams
   B             F#
   Melts in your champagne glass
         D#m                 A#m
   Do we need it all, we can have it all
       B                F#
   Our greed will raise oceans soon
           B              C#
   And the glacier of our human dream
   D#m           F#                     B    C#   D#m  F#
   Gone with the champagne glass in the sea
