I don't want to meet him at the crossroads, Uh uh. I don't want to sell my soul for fame.

I don't want to hit it big in Vegas. Don't want to be on the big screen, high on cocaine

I don't want to trouble with these things.

Yes Sir, I believe in a Great Mystery, whose names are too many to recite.

I was born in 1957, Elvis was King! Went to school fearing world war three...

I prayed and I got down, I was underneath my desk, Oh send angels to take away all the bad people,
G D G

C G C
How about you? It seems to me, there’s a whole lot more than meets the eye,
G Am Em

Politicians talking pretty stories, "Say, vote for me!" And on the money it says “In God we Trust”.
G C G D G
Seems all they trust is filthy lucre, don’t you know, because they're drunk on it, and for it they lust,
Em G D G
Dear Lord, And they wonderin' why the poor man likes the dust? I don't know.
C G C
How about you? It seems to me, there’s a whole lot more than meets the eye,

Like the hand of destiny. Silently the heavens are shining on me,

holding the secrets, of the Great Mystery.
C G C
How about you? It seems to me, there’s a whole lot more than meets the eye,
G Am Em
Much more than we can see. Silently the heavens are shining on me,
C D
no telling the secrets, of the Great Mystery.

When I meet you on the mountain someday... Turn this world's evil to dust and clay...
G C G D G
When the children of the future find our fossil, they'll say hey, imagine, it used to be that way,
Em G D G
Dear Lord, say imagine it used to be that way.
Em G D G
Dear Lord, they say imagine it used to be that way.
