G7              G7sus4  C9  F   
Take off, little winged creature
 Fsus4   F

                 G7              
It's nothing but teens in ravines
G7sus4

    C9                      F    
And antics on concrete down here
Fsus4   F

            G7           G7sus4   
And are you really as free as all 
   C9                        
the great songs would have me 
 F  Fsus4  F
believe?
                    G7       
Let me tell you why some day, 
          G7sus4      C9   F    
Birdie, you're gonna envy me
Fsus4      F


A#7             A#dim            
Some dream of a world written in 
Cm Cm/A# F    Fsus4    F
lines of code

                  G7          
Well, I hope they engineer out 
    G7sus4 C9
politics, romance, and edifice
          F                Fsus4  
Two outta three ain't bad
  F

A#7             A#dim             
Some envision a state governed by 
Cm     Cm/A# F   Fsus4   F
laws of business
G7                     G7sus4     
Merger and acquisition instead of 
C9
violence or nations
         F           Fsus4   F
Where do I sign up?

G7              G7sus4  C9  F   
Take off, little winged creature
   Fsus4   F

                 G7       G7sus4 
It's nothing but falling debris, 
C9                         F    
strollers, and babies down here
Fsus4   F

               G7         G7sus4 
And you may be up in the sky but 
C9                        F      
our paradigms are just as deep 
        Fsus4    F
and just as wide
              G7          G7sus4 
What with all our best attempts at 
C9
transcendence
            F              Fsus4   F
Something's bound to take

      A#7             A#dim       
Soon, we'll live in a global 
     Cm     Cm/A#      F    
culture devoid of gender or 
Fsus4   F
race
             G7
There's just one tiny line:
  G7sus4      C9
You're either born behind
                  F            
Or you're free to peek inside
Fsus4   F

A#7               A#dim      Cm  
Life as just narrative, metadata 
  Cm/A# F    Fsus4   F
in aggregate
          G7            
Where the enigma of humanity's 
G7sus4 C9
wrapped up finally
             F            Fsus4   
That as they say is that
  F


             Cm        Cm/A# F    
Oh, that day can't come soon 
 Fsus4   F
enough
      Cm    Cm/A# F   Fsus4   F
It'll be so glorious
          Cm      Cm/A#           
When they finally find out what's 
F        Fsus4    F
bugging us
