Experiment

 
D        G            C 
Under a tree where I lay with my lies 
D             G         C 
Something or someone bestowed a surprise 
D          G         C 
Telling me I had no use for my eyes 
   Gm6       G        A7sus4   A7 
If I really wanted to see. 
 

 
D           G           C 
Walking me tall like a priest with no pope 
D          G            C 
No one in lab coats and no one with dope 
D       G             C 
Nobody dangling some flimsy old hope 
    Gm6        G         A7sus4   A7 
And nothing to do but to be. 
 

 
Em     C   G 
All my baggage 
Am             F         Em 
Sent on ahead gentleman style 
Am       G          C           D 
All I remember are people who smile 
Em                       Bm 
Holding the world in the palm of my hand 
D                         Am7 
Feeling my pulse like the bass in a band 
G#m7              F#m7        B7 
Welcoming chaos I can't understand. 
 

 
Em      G       A 
Hey... I'm an experiment 
Em      G       A 
Hey... I'm an experiment 
Em      G       A 
Hey... I'm an experiment 
   G                      F#7sus4   F#7 
A most willing subject am I.

D         G             C 
Now the abyss seems to have its allure 
D              G          C 
No ground to stand on and nothing secure 
D             G          C 
Why should a monkey like me feel so pure 
Gm6       G          A7sus4   A7 
Kissing tomorrow goodbye. 
 

 
D             G         C 
Far from the comfort of all my despair 
D             G           C 
Every wrong thought is a wisp in the air 
D        G         C 
I try to worry but nothing is there 
Gm6             G         A7sus4   A7 
I throw up my hands and I cry. 
 

 
Em    C   G 
All I wanted 
Am               F         Em 
Falls at my feet holy and bright 
Am       G         C          D 
All I remember is what I did right 
Em                        Bm 
Holding the world in the palm of my hand 
D                         Am7 
Feeling my pulse like the bass in a band 
G#m7                 F#m7     B7 
Finding amazement wherever I land.
