[Verse 1]
    Am                               Bm
The path you tread is narrow and the drop is sheer and very high
    Am                             Bm
The ravens all are watching from a vantage point nearby
Am                           Bm
Apprehension creeping like a tube-train up your spine
Am                                         Bm
Will the tightrope reach the end? Will the final couplet rhyme?

[Chorus]
         C*         Fmaj7           C*         Fmaj7
And it's high time, Cymbaline, it's high time, Cymbaline
   Em
Please wake me

[Verse 2]
  Am                             Bm
A butterfly with broken wings is falling by your side
    Am                                 Bm
The ravens all are closing in, there's nowhere you can hide
     Am                         Bm
Your manager and agent are both busy on the phone
Am                              Bm
Selling coloured photographs to magazines back home

[Chorus]
         C*         Fmaj7           C*         Fmaj7
And it's high time, Cymbaline, it's high time, Cymbaline
   Em
Please wake me

[Verse 3]
    Am                                     Bm
The lines converging where you stand, they must have moved the picture plane
    Am                                    Bm
The leaves are heavy around your feet you hear the thunder of the train
Am                                   Bm
Suddenly it strikes you that they're moving into range
    Am                                Bm
And Doctor Strange is always changing size

[Chorus]
         C*         Fmaj7           C*         Fmaj7
And it's high time, Cymbaline, it's high time, Cymbaline
   Em
Please wake me

[Interlude]
Am   Bm   Am   Bm   Am   Bm   Am   Bm
(With scat vocals)

[Chorus]
         C*         Fmaj7           C*         Fmaj7
And it's high time, Cymbaline, it's high time, Cymbaline
   Em
Please wake me

[Outro]
Am   Bm   Am   Bm   Am   Bm   Am   Bm

C*   Fmaj7  C*   Fmaj7   Em
                        (Em drones under organ solo for last minute then fades)
