Gm/Eb  Fsus/Db Gm/Eb Fsus/Db  Gm/Eb    Fsus/Db  Dm7
Some   folks   see   the      world as a        stone 
Gm/Eb  Fsus/Db Gm/Eb  Fsus/Db  Gm/Eb    Fsus/Db  Dm7
Con    crete   daubed in       dull   mono       tone 
Eb/C              F/D
Your heart is the big box of paints 
    Gm/Db          F/D
And others, the canvas we're dealt 
Eb/C              F/D
Your heart is the big box of paints 
    Gm/Db          F/D
How coloured the flowers all smelled 
        Eb/Db                Eb
As they huddled there, in petalled prayer 
Eb/B         Eb/Bb    A       F      Gm/Eb  Fsus/Db  Gb
They told me this, as I knelt there 
G           G/Gb      G/E            Eb
Awaken you dreamers, adrift in your beds
G             G/Gb                 G/E             Eb
Balloons and streamers decorate the inside of your heads 
       D             D/E
Please let some out, Do it today 
    D/Gb                                                    Gm/Eb 
But don't let the loveless ones sell you a world wrapped in grey 
Gm/Eb Fsus/Db Gm/Eb Fsus/Db D
Some folks pull this life like a weight 
Drab and dragging dreams made of slate 
Your heart is the big box of paints 
And others, the canvas we're dealt 
Your heart is the big box of paints… 
…Just think how the old masters felt! They called… 
Awaken you dreamers, asleep at your desks 
Parrots and lemurs, populate your unconscious grotesques 
Please let some out, Do it today, 
Don't let the loveless ones sell you a world wrapped in grey 
           Gb/Eb               Ab/F              Bb/Gb
And in the very least you can stand up naked and grin!
