[Verse 1] G From wayβ upβ there it looksβ so small Am From way down here itβ looks so small C One peculiar organism arenβt G we all together? G Everybody steps on ants Am Everybody eats the plants C Everybody knows to dance G even with just one finger [Chorus] Em G Whatβs it gonna take? Em G Whatβs it gonna take? Em G Whatβs it gonna take C G C G C D C G To free the celestial body? [Verse 2] G When I took another look Am The past was not a history book C G That was just some linear perception G Ash to ask and dust to dusk Am A dime a dozen arenβt we just?

[Solo] G Am C G G Am C G [Verse 3] G When I say celestial Am I mean extra-terrestrial C I mean accepting the alien G youβve rejected in your own heart G When I say heart, I mean finish Am The last one there is a potato kinish C G Baking too long in the sun of Spud Infinity G When I say infinity I mean now Am Kiss the one you are right now C Kiss your body up and down, G other than your elbows G 'Cause as for your elbows theyβre on their own Am Wandering like a rolling stone C G Rubbing up against the edges of experience [Chorus] Em G Whatβs it gonna take? Em G Whatβs it gonna take? Em G Whatβs it gonna take C G C G C D C G To free the celestial body? [Outro] Em G Em G Em G |x4
