[Verse 1]
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
I'm playing my guitar while my sister bangs the jar
    Bb         F  Bb/G  Bb                F7
The glass sets up a sound like people laughing
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
It's going to my brain and it's easing all my pain
       Eb               F                   Eb Bb  Eb Bb   Eb Bb   Eb Bb
I must hear this sound again 'cause time is passing

[Verse 2]
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
I'm walking by the sea and the shingle sings for me
    Bb         F  Bb/G  Bb                F7
The crabs are swimming down among the starfish
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
The rocks all clatter down and the seagulls fly around
       Eb               F                   Eb Bb  Eb Bb   Eb Bb   Eb Bb
But the whole trip rubs it in that time is passing, passing

[Refrain]
Ab     Eb         Bb      Eb/Bb Bb  Eb/Bb Bb
Find it, I got to hear it all again...
   Ab                  Eb             Bb  Eb/Bb
My heart has heard the sound of harmony
Eb                 Bb
Blind to it, as my tears fall again
     Ab          Eb     Ab Eb            Bb
It's only by the music I'll be free

[Verse 3]
        Eb               Ebsus4         Eb
There's something in the whisper of the trees
Eb                Ebsus4             Eb
Millions hear it, still they can't believe
          Bb           Ab               Bb      Ab Ab Eb Eb
There are echoes of it splashing in the waves
      Bb        Ab                   Eb      Eb/Bb
As an empire of dead men leave their graves

[Verse 4]
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
Don't listen to people talk, don't listen to 'em selling souls
    Bb         F  Bb/G  Bb                F7
Don't listen to me or words from men above
   Bb      F  Bb/G  Bb   F    Bb/G  Eb        Bb   F   Bb/G
Don't hear it in your needs and don't hear it in your greed's
       Eb               F                   Eb Bb  Eb Bb   Eb Bb   Eb Bb
Just hear it in the sound of time a passing

My heart has heard the sound of harmony
Eb                 Bb
Blind to it, as my tears fall again
     Ab          Eb     Ab Eb            Bb
It's only by the music I'll be free
