[Verse 1]
G
First the thunder came
F
Then the mountains fell
    C
The heavy sky grew darker
    G
The rising rivers swelled
    G
The earthly hum went silent
F
Every land a lake
    C
But just before oblivion
   G
I shook myself awake

[Verse 2]
  G
I put on my overcoat
      F
And I went out into the night
   C
I saw that the stars were still there
G
Just before the light
       G
Like a foal on its feet for the first time
F
Drinking the whole world in
C
Awed by a terrible beauty
  G
I heard the whole world sing

[Chorus]
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, oh we're
G
Living now
G
Hey, that's really
   F
Something, that's really
  C
Something, yeah we're
G
Living now

[Verse 3]
G
Born out of nothingness
F
Gone of a will to live
      C
Like someone said, the love you take
   G
Is equal to the love you give
     G
From up on the hill the sturdy spreads its sails (?)
        F
Like an architect of time
C
Mapping out the dreams and peculiar follies
G
Born of a mental mind

[Verse 4]
   G
I put on my overcoat
      F
And I step out into the day
  C
I throw light on the savage beauty
  G
I hear the whole world say

[Chorus]
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, oh we're
G
Living now
G
Hey, that's really
F
Something, that's really
C
Something, yeah we're
G
Living now

[Verse 5]
     G
So I put on my overcoat
      F
And I slip out into the dawn
        C
All the morning stars, they sing together
G
Happy just to be born
       G
Yeah I put on my overcoat
         F
I'm just here to greet the day
    C
I'm drunk on all this stupid beauty
   G
I hear the whole world say

[Chorus]
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, oh we're
G
Living now
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, yeah we're
G
Living now

[Outro]
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, oh we're
G
Living now
G
Hey, that's really
 F
Something, that's really
C
Something, yeah we're
G
Living now
