G7              G7sus4  C9  F    Fsus4   FTake off, little winged creature
                 G7              G7sus4It's nothing but teens in ravines
    C9                      F    Fsus4   FAnd antics on concrete down here
            G7           G7sus4      C9                         F  Fsus4  FAnd are you really as free as all the great songs would have me believe?
                    G7                 G7sus4      C9   F    Fsus4      FLet me tell you why some day, Birdie, you're gonna envy me

A#7             A#dim            Cm Cm/A# F    Fsus4    FSome dream of a world written in lines of code
                  G7              G7sus4 C9Well, I hope they engineer out politics, romance, and edifice
          F                Fsus4    FTwo outta three ain't bad
A#7             A#dim             Cm     Cm/A# F   Fsus4   FSome envision a state governed by laws of business
G7                     G7sus4     C9Merger and acquisition instead of violence or nations
         F           Fsus4   FWhere do I sign up?

G7              G7sus4  C9  F      Fsus4   FTake off, little winged creature
                 G7       G7sus4 C9                         F    Fsus4   FIt's nothing but falling debris, strollers, and babies down here
               G7         G7sus4 C9                        F              Fsus4    FAnd you may be up in the sky but our paradigms are just as deep and just as wide
              G7          G7sus4 C9  What with all our best attempts at transcendence
            F              Fsus4   FSomething's bound to take

      A#7             A#dim            Cm     Cm/A#      F    Fsus4   FSoon, we'll live in a global culture devoid of gender or race
             G7         There's just one tiny line:
  G7sus4      C9You're either born behind
                  F            Fsus4   FOr you're free to peek inside
A#7               A#dim      Cm    Cm/A# F    Fsus4   F Life as just narrative, metadata in aggregate
          G7            G7sus4 C9Where the enigma of humanity's wrapped up finally
             F            Fsus4     FThat as they say is that

             Cm        Cm/A# F     Fsus4   FOh, that day can't come soon enough
      Cm    Cm/A# F   Fsus4   FIt'll be so glorious
          Cm      Cm/A#           F        Fsus4    FWhen they finally find out what's bugging us
