Dm                                
    He had a thousand ideas,      
      Bb
You might have heard his name
F                                 
   He lived alone with his vision,
          C                        
   Not looking for fortune and fame
      G5

Dm                                
Never said too much to speak of   
          Bb
   He was off on another plane
F                           
The words that he said were a 
                             C     
mystery  Nobody's sure he was sane
           G5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
             Dm         F         
But he knew   He knew more than me
            G                Dm
 or you
F                     G      
No one could see his view       
     Dm       Bb                C
Where was he going to
     G5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Verse 2 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dm                                
He was in search of an answer     
          Bb
  The nature of what we are
Continues after the ad
F                                 
   He was trying to do it a new 
                     C             
way        He was bright as a star
            G5

Dm                             
   But nobody understood him     
           Bb
"His numbers are not the way"
F                                 
He's lost in the deepest enigma   
              C                    
  Which no one's unraveled today
     G5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
             Dm         F         
But he knew   He knew more than me
            G                Dm
 or you
F                     G           
No one could see his view       Oh
Dm          Bb                C 
 Where was he going to
    G5

            Dm         F          
And he tried   But before he could
           G                Dm
 tell us he died
F                     G          
When he left us the people cried 
      Dm       Bb                
  Oh, where was he going to
C      G5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Verse 3 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dm                              
He had a different idea        A 
Bb
glimpse of the master plan
F                                 
He could see into the future      
        C                         G5
A true visionary man
Dm                                
But there's something he never 
                   Bb
told us  It died when he went away
F                                 
If only he could have been with us
                 C                 
   No telling what he might say
        G5


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus

             Dm         F         
But he knew   He knew more than me
            G                Dm
 or you
F                     G           
No one could see his view       Oh
Dm          Bb                C 
 Where was he going to
    G5

           Dm         F           
But he knew  You could tell by the
          G                Dm
 picture he drew
F                     G           
It was totally something new   Oh,
Dm          Bb                C 
 where was he going to
    G5
