[Verse 1]
A                             G
Through the passing strange I fell
A                     G
To the wide-eyed opposite
A                        G
My agenda was hidden well
A                               G
Now I don't know where I left it

[Pre Chorus]
E    F#m  B          E                F#m B
I         woke up in Escher's world today
E         F#m     B   A
My mother said it was ok

[Chorus]
D          G            D      A
Up's down, down is out, out is in
D         G              D            A
Stairways circle back to where you've been
D           G             D       A
Time falls, water crawls, are you listening?

[Verse 2]
A                       G
Did you ever chase your tail
A                       G
Through a maze of exit doors?
A                          G
I have seen the light by Braille
A                         G
I have blazed the road before us

[Pre Chorus]
E    F#m  B          E                F#m B
We're     walking in Escher's World again
E           F#m    B      A
Rise up you nimble-minded men

[Chorus]
D           G           D         A
Birds roar, lions soar, sheep are cruel
D             G            D       A
Snail’s pace, paper chase, midgets rule
D               G             D        A
Stuffed shirts, status hurts, we ain't foolin'
E   Em/G             E       Em/G
    We ain’t foolin  We ain’t foolin

[Bridge]
D               Dsus       D
Let the sequels have their day

Yeah, the remake's on its way

[Pre Chorus]
E     F#m B         E                 F#m B
We're     living in Escher's world it seems
E           F#m     B       A
We're wide awake within our dreams

[Chorus]
D          G            D      A
Socks hop, lemons drop, butter flies
D            G            D     A
Tough wimps, sadoshrimps, mojos rise
D            G            D          A
Pips squeak, widows peek, are you surprised?

Snail’s pace, paper chase, midgets rule

Stuffed shirts, Ethel Mertz, we ain't foolin'

D         G              D         A
Stairways circle back to where you been

Stairways circle back to where you been
D         G              D         A
Stairways circle back to where you been
