[Verse 1]
G Am
Now, I let go everything that I’ve known,
C D G
let it go on, let it roll out with the tide.
G Am
I can’t think of a thing that hasn’t been shot through with pain
C D G
like a nightingale’s song in the dead of the night.

[Chorus]
N.C. G Am
Goodbye, so long, farewell all I’ve been, ooo, oblivion,
C D G
throw me in the ocean, ooo, see if I can swim.
G Am
I’m wild again, I’m a starchild again,
C D G
I come ten million miles, ooo, I’m burning.

[After-Chorus] (Count Faster)
C D G G
I’m a summer dream, I’m a real light beam, I’m worthy
C D G G
of all the goodness and the love that the world’s gonna give to me.
C D G G
I’ma give it back ten times, people, are you ready?
C D G G G G G
If you think you’re alone, hold on, I’m coming.

[Verse 2] (Again Slow Counting)
G Am
Now, I unfold every lie I was told,
C D G
watch ‘em wither, watch ‘em scatter with with wind.
G Am
I can’t think of a thing that hasn’t been born of a dream
C D G
like a Love Supreme, like a Circle Unbroken.

[Chorus]
G Am
Goodbye, so long, farewell all I’ve been, ooo, oblivion,

I come ten million miles, ooo, I’m burning.
