Intro:

A

Verse 1:

A                                            Am
 Soon it will be the phase of the moon, when people tune in.
C           Am              F
 Every girl knows about the punctual blues,
    C                 Am     F      E7
But who's to know the power, behind our moves?

Bridge 1:

Fmaj7                           Em7
 A day of coincidence, with the radio,
And a word that won't go away.
Fmaj7
 We know what they're all going to say;
Em7
 "G" arrives, funny; had a feeling he was on his way.

Chorus 1:

   C              G                  F
We raise our hats to the strange phe-nomena,
Em          Am            F
 Soul birds of a feather, flock together.
   C              G             F
We raise out hats to the hand a-moulding us,
Em7                       Am
 Sure 'nuf, he has the an-swer.
   Em         Am       Em         Am   Em  Am
He has the an-swer, he has the an-swer.

Break:

Em       Am     Em      Am     Em      Am    A
 Om mani padme, om mani padme, om mani padme hum.

Verse 2:

    A
You pick up a paper, you read a name,
    Am
You go out; it turns up, again and again.
    C           Am                 F
You bump into a friend you haven't seen for a long time,
C            Am               F             E7
 Then into a-nother, you only thought about last night.

Bridge 2:

Fmaj7                  Em7
 You hear your sister, calling for you,
But you don't know where from.
Fmaj7
 You know there's something wrong,
        Em7
But you don't want to believe in a premonition.

Chorus 2:

   C              G                  F
We raise our hats to the strange phe-nomena,
Em          Am            F
 Soul birds of a feather, flock together.
   C              G             F
We raise out hats to the hand a-moulding us,
Em7                       Am
 Sure 'nuf, he has the an-swer.
   Em         Am       Em         Am   Em  Am
He has the an-swer, he has the an-swer.

Break:

Em       Am     Em      Am     Em      Am    A
 Om mani padme, om mani padme, om mani padme hum.
