intro
[ instrumental track ]

A E/G# Am D
we’re building a home on the side of a mountain
C Bm A B
above the clouds , next to the sky
A E/G# Am D
and after our labours the stars will be neighbours
C Bm A B
we’ll take our place with them in space

Cadd9 Am7
we’re not using concrete or plaster or wood –
G D/F#
they’d lower the tone of our new neighbourhood
Cadd9 Am7
and mortar will crumble with age and neglect
G D/F#
we’re building our home upon love and respect
Cadd9 C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9
and when we’ve built it we’ll call it andromeda heights
C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9
when we’ve built it we’ll call it andromeda heights
C/B Am7 D7sus2 G F#m B
when we’ve built it we’ll call it andromeda heights

A E/G# Am D
we’re building a home on the side of a mountain
C Bm A B
above the clouds , next to the sky
A E/G# Am D
our plans are ambitious – a blueprint of wishes
C Bm A B
that will come true and when they do

Cadd9 Am7
folks in the valley will look up and say
G D/F#
“you’ve finally built it can we come and stay?”
Cadd9 Am7
and cynics will marvel and say “we confess –
G D/F#
there were times when we thought it was just an address!
Cadd9 C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9
but now that we’ve seen it we know it’s andromeda heights
C/B Am7 D7sus2 Cadd9
now we’ve seen it we know it’s andromeda heights
C/B Am7 D7sus2 G F#m B
now we’ve seen it we know it’s andromeda heights . ”
