              B              D#m
Well, I was sleeping, only in my head.
         G#m       F#/A#
Slipping in out of time
           B              D#m
And I was lifting, always higher
        G#m             F#/A#
And the women of heaven sang
They were singing

Chorus:
E                               B
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
           F#      G#m F#
How'd you like that?
E                               B
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
          F#       G#m F#
How'd you like that?
I like it.
E                               B
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
           F#      G#m F#
How'd you like that?
            E B F#
It lifts me up

What better time to
Take a ride with you
Through the universe tonight
The look of sound looks
Much like your face
And the symphony that helps me sing
They were singing

Chorus:
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? I like it
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? I only just let go

How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? I like it
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that? It lifts me up
How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?

(How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?)
I feel for you, will you feel for me?
Let's work together
(How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?)
And take it out across the sea
To America
(How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?)
I feel for you, will you feel for me?
So let's work together
(How'd you like that? How'd you like that?
How'd you like that?)
And take it out across the sea
Let's work together
