[Verse 1]
F# D#m
Look past the dying trees,
F# D#m
beyond waterless seas
F# B
Atop the horizon
D#m
Adjacent to the sun
C#
I give my word that it’s there,
Magenta Mountain
F# D#m
What do you mean,
F# D#m
you can’t see it?
F# B D#m
My life must be a dream, a living fantasy
C#
Disappeared in hot air, Magenta Mountain

[Bridge 1]
F# D#m
I don’t believe you
F# D#m
Your eyes deceive you
F# B
Better check yourself in
D#m
The mirage is creeping outwards from your dream
C# D#m
Can’t you see you’ve gone insane?

[Verse 2]
F# D#m
I packed my bags and my swag for the road
F# D#m
Followed the bows of the anciеnt railroads
F# B D#m
Need to rendezvous wherе clouds can’t misconstrue
C# F#
I’m certain it’s real, Magenta Mountain
D#m F#
You will say I’m crazy
D#m F# B
I will go on my way because it’s what I need
D#m C#
I’d cross a thousand seas just to prove I’m not mad
D#m
Magenta Mountain
Magenta Mountain

[Bridge 2]
F# D#m
It’s you again
Yeah!
F# D#m F# B
I thought I saw a statue blink and a bird with no head
D#m
Land on a golden thread
I rub my eyes
C#
What am I saying?
There’s nothing there

[Chorus]
F# D#m
Magenta mountain
F# D#m
Magenta mountain
F# B D#m
It’s my sanctuary that I wanna be chasing every chance I get
C#
Don’t wanna be left
F#
Never not making it there

[Verse 3]
D#m F#
What was confusing
D#m
is now seducing
F# B D#m
Imagination is a powerful thing
C#
I see a flash of purple stone closing in

[Chorus]
F# D#m
Magenta mountain
F# D#m
Magenta mountain
F# B D#m
It’s my sanctuary that I wanna be chasing every chance I get
C#
Don’t wanna be left
F#
Never not making it there

[Verse 4]
D#m
I am tectonic
F# D#m
I am megalithic
F# B
My spirit runs mauve
D#m
I am the mountain of which you dream
C#
I see you now behind the lens looking back at me

F# D#m F# D#m

F# B D#m
We fell through a dream across clouds of glue
C# D#m
Anamnesis crashing through

[Outro]
D#m
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
Magenta mountain
