A Em How long before I get in D Before it starts, before I begin A Em How long before you decide D Before I know what it feels like Where to, where do I go? If you never try, then you'll never know How long do I have to climb Up on the side of this mountain of mine? Look up, I look up at night Planets are moving at the speed of light Climb up, up in the trees Every chance that you get Is a chance you seize How long am I gonna stand With my head stuck under the sand? I'll start before I can stop Before I see things the right way up G A Bm All that noise, all that sound G A Bm All those places that i got found Chorus: G Bm And birds go flying at the speed of sound D G To show how it all began G Bm Birds come flying from the underground F#m G If you could see it then you'd understand Ideas that you'll never find All the inventors could never design The buildings that you put up Japan and China all lit up The sign that I couldn't read Or a light that I couldn't see Some things you have to believe But others are puzzles, puzzling me All that noise, and all that sound All those places I got found Chorus All those signs, I knew what they meant Some things you can invent Some get made, and some get sent Chorus: Birds go flying at the speed of sound To show you how it all began Birds came flying from the underground If you could see it then you'd understand Ah, when you see it then you'll understand You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  Em  F#m  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
