Verses
C#m E G#m C#m(add9)
1. When I was a young boy I tried to listen
2. If you ever feel like something's missing
3. When I was a young boy, I tried to listen
C#m E G#m
And I wanna feel like that
things you'll never understand
Don’t you wanna feel like that?
C#m E G#m C#m(add9)
Little white shadows, blink and miss them
Little white shadows, sparkle and glisten
You’re part of the human race, all of the stars in the outer space
C#m E G#m
Part of a system, I am
Part of a system, a plan
Part of a system, I am

All this noise I'm waking up

Chorus:
C#m Amaj7
Maybe you'll get what you wanted
E G#m
Maybe you'll stumble upon it
C#m Amaj7
Everything you ever wanted

In a permanent state

Maybe you'll know when you see it
E G#m
Maybe if you say it you'll mean it
C#m Amaj7
And when you find it you'll keep it
E G#m C#m
In a permanent state, a permanent state
Outro: (organ only)
C#m
Swim out on a sea of faces
A E
The tide of the human races, oh
G#m
An answer now is what I need
C#m
See it in the new sun rising and
A E
See it break on your horizon, oh
G#m
Come on love, stay with me
C#m (fade out)
