R.E.M. - The Great Beyond
Am7
Dsus2
I´ve watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
All the sights that I have seen
I can´t believe that I believed
I wished That you could see
There´s a new planet in the solar system
There is nothing up my sleeve
C C/B Am7
I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs
I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
G
Crashing to the ground
Repeat chords for remaining verses
And all this talk of time
Talk is fine
And I don´t want to stay around
Why can´t we pantomime, just close our eyes
And sleep sweet dreams
Being here with wings on our feet
I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs
I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
I´m breaking through
I´m bending spoons
I´m keeping flowers in full bloom
I´m looking for answers from the great beyond
I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears
Sweetest dreams of you
Look into the stars
Look into the moon
I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs
I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground
I´m breaking through
I´m bending spoons
I´m keeping flowers in full bloom
I´m looking for answers from the great beyond
I´m breaking through
I´m bending spoons
I´m keeping flowers in full bloom
I´m looking for answers from the great
I´m breaking through
I´m bending spoons
I´m keeping flowers in full bloom
I´m looking for answers from the great beyond
I´m breaking through
I´m bending spoons
I´m keeping flowers in full bloom
I´m looking for answers from the great
