Verse 1
Gm7 (arpeggio)
Watery eyes of the last sighing seconds blue reflections mute and dim
Beckon tearful child of wonder to repentance of the sin
Gmsus4 Gm Gmsus4 Gm
And the blind and lusty lovers of the great eternal lie
Gmsus4 Gm Gmsus4 Gm
Go on believing nothing since something has to die
Gm7sus4 Gm Gm7sus4 Gm
And the apes curiosity money power wins
Eb6sus4 Eb6 F G
And the yellow soft mountains move under him
D C/D
Chorus
D C D
I'm with you L.E.M. though it's a shame that it had to be you
D C D
The mother ship is just a blip from your trip made for two
D C D
I'm with you boys so please employ just a little extra care
D C D
It's on my mind I'm left behind when I should have been there
D G Gmsus4 Gm
Walking with you
Verse 2 (same as verse 1)
And the limp face hungry viewer fight to fasten with their eyes
Like the man hung from the trapeze whose fall will satisfy
And congratulate each other on their rare and wondrous deed
That their begrudged money bought to sow the monkey's seed
And the yellow soft mountains grow very still
Witness as intrusion the humanoid thrill
Chorus
I'm with you L.E.M. though it's a shame that it had to be you
The mother ship is just a blip from your trip made for two
I'm with you boys so please employ just a little extra care
It's on my mind I'm left behind when I should have been there
Walking with you
