Intro:  Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm

Gm
The road is long, you’re gonna get thrown about,
                                                       D
Stick to the rhythm: breathe it in and breathe it out.
Do what you do, there isn’t any secret,
                                        Gm
Chop wood, draw water, roll cigarettes.

Gm
Find a lover, put a flower in her hair,
                                              D
Climb a mountain, see the mountain disappear.
Be the first to go back to the ghost town,
                                                 Gm
Break bread with the man, that’s gonna bring you down,
Deep, deep down.

Chorus:
  A#                   Dm                   Gm
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
                                A#
     I listen and I hear what’s said.
                       Dm                   Gm
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
                           A#
     I follow it from a to zed.
                       Dm                   Cm
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
                                Gm
     But wisdom hasn’t found me yet.

Instrumental: Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm

You’re feeling scared, Jesus is your bodyguard.
You feel alone, take a look in your backyard.
Put your eye to the eye of a telescope -
The universe looks back through a microscope.

Adopt a highway, dress yourself in camel hair,
A wasted life is a life lived unaware.
Make a money, put it on a number eight,
Tempt fate, maybe you’re a wheel going round,
Round and round.

Instrumental: Gm | Gm

Chorus:
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     I listen and I hear what’s said.
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     I follow it from a to zed.
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     But wisdom hasn’t found me yet.

Instrumental: Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm | D | D | D | D  } 2 times

     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     I listen and I hear what’s said.
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     I follow it from a to zed.
     La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la,
     But wisdom hasn’t found me yet.
