INTRO:
V1 Climbing up on Solsbury Hill, I could see the lights
Wind was blowing, time stood still, eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe, came in close I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve, I had to listen, had no choice
I did not need the information, just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
Son he said, grab you�re things I�m gonna take you home
GUITAR RIFF --> (4 BARS)
V2 To keep in silence I resigned, my friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine, open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day, though my life was in a rut
'til I thought of what I�d say, and which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery, I walked out of the machinery
My heart was going boom boom boom
Son he said, grab your things I�m gonna take you home
GUITAR RIFF --> (4 BARS)
V3 When illusions spin her net, I�m never where I wanna be
And liberty she pirouette, when I think that I am free
Watch my empty silouhette, close their eyes but still can see
No-one taught them any care, I will show another me
Today I need a replacement, I tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
Hey! I said, you can keep my things they�re gonna take me home
GUITAR RIFF --> (4 BARS)
OUTRO -----
Way back home...
