[Intro 1]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]

[Verse 1]
How [G]long before I get [Dm]in?
Before it starts, before I be[C]gin?
How [G]long before you de[Dm]cide?
Before I know what it feels [C]like?
Where [G]to, where do I [Dm]go?
If you never try,
then you'll never [C]know
How [G]long do I have to [Dm]climb
Up on the side of this mountain of [C]mine?

[Interlude 1]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]

[Verse 2]
Look [G]up, I look up at [Dm]night
Planets are moving
at the speed of [C]light
Climb [G]up, up in the [Dm]trees
Every chance that you get
Is a chance you [C]seize
How [G]long am I gonna [Dm]stand
With my head stuck under the [C]sand?
I'll [G]start before I can [Dm]stop
Before I see things the right way [C]up

[Pre-chorus 1]
[F]All that noi[G]se, and all that sou[Am]nd
[F]All those pla[G]ces I got fou[Am]nd

[Chorus 1]
And [F]birds go flying at the [Am]speed of sound
To [C]show you how it all be[F]gan
Birds came flying from the [Am]underground
If you could [Em]see it then you'd u[F]nderstand

[Interlude 2]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]
[G][Dm][Dm][C]

[Verse 3]
I[G]deas that you'll never [Dm]find
All the inventors could never de[C]sign
The [G]buildings that you put [Dm]up
Japan and China all lit [C]up
The [G]sign that I couldn't [Dm]read
Or a light that I couldn't [C]see
Some [G]things you have to be[Dm]lieve
But others are puzzles, puzzling [C]me

[Pre-chorus 2]
[F]All that noi[G]se, and all that sou[Am]nd
[F]All those pla[G]ces I got fou[Am]nd

[Chorus 2]
And [F]birds go flying at the [Am]speed of sound
To [C]show you how it all be[F]gan
Birds came flying from the [Am]underground
If you could [Em]see it then you'd u[F]nderstand
Ah, when you [Em]see it then you'll [F]understand

[Interlude 3]
[C][C][C][C]
[C][C][C][C]

[Bridge 1]
[F]All those sig[G]ns,
I knew what they [Am]meant
Some things you [D]can invent
[F]And some get mad[G]e,
and some get [Am]sent
Ooh- [D]oh

[Chorus 3]
And [F]birds go flying at the [Am]speed of sound
To [C]show you how it all be[F]gan
Birds came flying from the [Am]underground
If you could [Em]see it then you'd u[F]nderstand
Ah, when you [Em]see it then you'll understand
[F][F][F][F]
