Fool's Overture

Am                     Dm/A
History recalls how great the fall 
can be
        G7                     
While everybody's sleeping, the 
    C7+
boats put out to sea
F                              Dm/F
       Born on the wings of time
               Em                  
It seemed the answers were so easy 
       Am
to find
       Dm                    G7
"Too late," the prophets cry
               C7+                 
The island's sinking, let's take to
         Bb6
 the sky

Am                         Dm/A
Called the man a fool, striped him 
of his pride
G7                             
Everyone was laughing up until the 
C7+
day he died

F                               Dm/F
   And though the wound went deep
             Em                 
Still he's calling us out of our 
      Am
sleep
       Dm                G7
My friends, we're not alone
              C7+                  
He waits in silence to lead us all 
   Bb C
home

Dm          Dm6                  
        So tell me that you find 
                Dm7
it hard to grow
          Dm6             Dm
Well I know, I know, I know
Dm        Dm6                    
And you tell me that you've many 
             Dm7
seeds to sow
         Dm6               Bb C
Well I know, I know, I know

"Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on 
Queenie,
Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed 
Meanie"
