[Verse 1]
A                   D  G
Did you see our brother
       Asus4           A
He was here the other day
       F#m          Bm            
But he only came to say that he 
  Em
was leaving
        A          D   G
Did you see his lady
        Asus4               A
She was looking where he'd gone
        F#m            Bm         
But she wasn't letting on that she
     Em
 was grieving
A              D
She's bound to go
  G                                
Perhaps she'll find him waiting for
     A                      D
 some boat in some city far away

A              G     D
She's bound to go

[Verse 2]
Asus4       D    G       Asus4 
Lately I remember afternoons of
              A
 smoke and wine
          F#m              Bm     
There was nothing we could find 
            Em
but peace and pleasure
A                 D       G
And long ago he told me
        Asus4           A         
That he wanted just to be on his 
F#m            Bm            
way across some sea no man can 
 Em
measure
A           D
He won't be back,

        G                          
And the sun may find him sleeping 
      A                      D
in the dust of some ruin far away
A           G       D
He won't be back

[Chorus 1]
G                                 
Early today as I watched while the
             D
 skyline was shaking
          Asus4
I heard a rumbling
G                                 
Early today the mechanical city 
  D
was waking
              Asus4
And I ran out stumbling, mumbling
Asus4                             
Out through the laughter of 
         A
children and dogs

[Verse 3]
A                D        G
Do you know the mad man.
         A
Yes he lives upon the hill.
              F#m             Bm  
And they say haunted voices fill 
             Em
his head with warnings.
A          D             G     
Saying to a shadow, that the time is
A
 drawing near.
          F#m       Bm            
When the world must disappear, one
              Em
 of these mornings.
A            D
Maybe he'll go.

G                                 
Perhaps he'll take his shadow and 
   A                              
be off to find his brother far 
D   G D G A
away.
A            G D
Maybe he'll go.

[Chorus 2]
   G                         
Early today, as my friend the 
                D
policeman was sneering.
           Asus
I heard a rumbling.
G                                 
Early today as the men of my 
        D
office were leering.
             Asus
I ran out stumbling, mumbling,
Asus4                             
Out through the laughter of 
         A
children and dogs.

[Verse 4]
A               D      G
Did you see our brother
       Asus4           A
He was here the other day
       F#m          Bm        
But he only came to say that he 
        Em
can't breathe here
        A         D   G
Did you see his lady
        Asus4             A
She was reaching for his hand
        F#m            Bm         
Just as if to tell her man that 
        Em
she can't either
