[Verse 1]

           C         G
If I could forget to breathe
                  C      G
Forget to breathe entirely
     D/F#    Em    C            G
It's happened down through history
                   C       G
And surely I could lose my head
                  C         G
Some night I could drink too much
     D/F#    Bm    C         G
And take it off and just forget

[Bridge]

C        Dadd4      G
And I will learn all languages
      C       B7          Em
I will speak in every tongue
C         Dadd4 G
From highnesses to savages
    C/G                Em
And to all beneath the sun

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

               C         G
Someday I will paint the sky
             C        G       D/F#
I will build a ladder, make a roller
Em         C          G
That could reach that high
                   C     G
And nothing that I do will pass
            C        G         D/F#
Everything I will and make and feel
     Em      C           G
And dream and know will last

[Bridge]

       C        Dadd4  G
I will rid the world of sorrow
   C          B7      Em
And stop all wars and pain
      C          Dadd4 G
I will tell you of tomorrow
     Fmaj7                Em   D/F#  G
As I rule the wind and rain

[Verse 3]

  C                  G
I can do it all it's true
                  C        G
But only when I've done all that
   D/F#  Em      C       G
Oh will I turn away from you
                C      G
Only when I've done all that
  D/F#     Em   C         G
Oh will I turn away from you
