Sat In Your Lap

Written by Kate Bush

	  		Intro Gm  Dm 

Gm          Dm 
  I see the people working 
Gm        Dm 
  And see it working for them 
Gm       Dm 
  And so I want to join in 
Gm         Dm 
  But then I find it hurts me 

Em     D#                   D4                  C 
Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap 
Em     D#                   D4                  C 
 Some say that knowledge is something that you never have 

Gm          Dm 
I see the people happy 
Gm          Dm 
So can it happen for me? 
Gm          Dm 
'Cause when I am unhappy 
Gm          Dm 
There's nothing that can move me 

Em     D#                   D4            C 
Some say that knowledge is something that you never have 
Em     D#                   D4                  C 
Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap 

Em      D#                 C 
  Some say that heaven is hell 
Em      D#               C 
  Some say that hell is heaven 

C          D#   A#               G# 
 I must admit, just when I think I'm king 
          C 
(I just begin.) 
              D#          A#          G# 
Just when I think I'm king, I must admit 
           C 
(I just begin.) 
              D#       A# 
Just when I think I'm king 
G# 
 (I just begin.) 

Gm          Dm 
I've been doing it for years 
Gm          Dm 
My goal is moving near 
Gm          Dm 
It says, "Look! I'm over here." 
Gm          Dm 
Then it up and disappears 

Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap 

Some say that knowledge is ho-ho-ho-ho 

Gm          Dm 
I want to be a lawyer 
Gm          Dm 
I want to be a scholar 
Gm          Dm 
But I really can't be bothered 
Gm          Dm 
Ooh, just gimme it quick, gimme it, gimme gimme gimme gimme! 

Em     D#                   D4       C 
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho 
Em     D#                   D4       C 
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho 
Em      D#                 C 
  Some say that heaven is hell 
Em      D#               C 
  Some say that hell is heaven 

I must admit, just when I think I'm king 

(I just begin.) 

Just when I think I'm king, I must admit 

(I just begin.) 

Just when I think everything's going great 

(I just begin,) 

C           D#                    A#    G# 
 I get the break, hey, I'm gonna take it all (I just begin.) 
C          D# A# G# 
 When I'm king    (just begin.) 

Gm          Dm 
In my dome of ivory 
Gm          Dm 
A home of activity 
Gm          Dm 
I want the answers quickly 
Gm          Dm 
But I don't have no energy 

Gm          Dm 
I hold a cup of wisdom 
Gm          Dm 
But there is nothing within 
Gm          Dm 
My cup, she never overfloweth 

Gm            Dm                 Gm  Dm !!!!! 
  And 'tis I that moan- and groaneth 

Gm       Dm 
  Some grey and white matter 
Gm             Dm !!!!! 
 "Give me the karma, mama!" 
Gm     Dm                Gm Dm !!!!! 
  I'm coming up the ladder 
Gm     Dm 
  I'm coming up the ladder 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  "A jet to Mecca," 
Gm Dm 
   Up the ladder 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  "Tibet or Jeddah 
Gm     Dm !!!!! 
  "To Salisbury 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  A monastery 
Gm     Dm !!!!! 
  The longest journey 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  Across the desert 
Gm  Dm !!!!! 
  Across the weather 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  Across the elements 
Gm   Dm !!!!! 
  Across the water!"
