                Climbing up on Solsbury Hill      I could see the city lights
          D Em                               Em    D Em                       G
                Wind was blowing, time stood still      eagle flew out of the night
          D  G                        G     D G                          Em     
                He was something to observe     came in close, I heard a voice
          D Em                            Em    D Em                      Cmaj7
                Standing stretching every nerve      had to listen had no choice 
                  D         Cmaj7                   
                I did not believe the information           
         Cmaj7  D           Cmaj7
                Just had to trust imagination   
         Cmaj7  D              Cmaj7            C    D       C           G        
                My heart going boom boom boom   son, he said   grab your things
                     Em      D        Am7

                To keep in silence I resigned     my friends would think I was a nut
          D Em                     Em   D  Em                          G 
                Turning water into wine       open doors would soon be shut
          D  G                        G   D  G                          Em
                So I went from day to day      though' my life was in a rut

                Till I thought of what I'd say      which connection I should cut
                D             Cmaj7   
                I was feeling part of the scenery    
          Cmaj7 D              Cmaj7                                
                I walked right out of the machinery
          Cmaj7 D              Cmaj7              C  D    C           G

          D  G                         G    D G     
                Watched by empty silhouettes
                                                   Em     
                Who close their eyes but still can see

                My heart going boom boom boom 
                C   D      C                 G
