Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
F#/A# G#m D#m E F#
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
B E/B F#/B B
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
F#/A# G#m D#m E F# C#m
who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my mind again...
No one left to hold me tight - on the
B/D# Em D/F# G
`real`other side but her in chains
B E/B
I had been alone till the madman come along
F#/B B
With the knowledge and silver long beard
F#/A# G#m D#m E F#
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
B E/B
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
F#/B B F#/A#
They've been trying to hide away...
G#m D#m E
And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
F# E F#
go all the way

Op - en the gate and do not close behind

Prevent them from hiding the light away
B/D# E
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
C#m
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
F#
million empty brains...

And sometimes it takes a toll
