G Cmaj7
I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head
G Cmaj7
Say don’t you want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
[Verse]
G Am Cmaj7
I’ve got greens in the garden and a freezer full of meat
G Am Cmaj7
A one trick pony with four left feet
G Am Cmaj7
A chapel in the apple orchard keeping at bay
G Am Cmaj7
Whatever’s hollering in the holler just a stone’s throw away from where…
[Chorus]
G Cmaj7
I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head
G Cmaj7
Say don’t you want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
[Verse]
G Am Cmaj7
With skins in the rafters of a patched up roof
G Am Cmaj7
A still in a clearing for the discerning of truth
G Am Cmaj7
Nine miles from nowhere, somewhere is home
G Am Cmaj7
Firmament, foundation and a place to rot my bones
[Bridge]
Am
When I’ve grown
Cmaj7 G
Too old to live in my skin
Cmaj7 G
Too big to keep it all in
Cmaj7 Am
Too holy for this world of sin
Cmaj7
That I’ve been building
[Verse]
G Am Cmaj7
The dog’s in the parlor putting on a show
G Am Cmaj7
For the five little children all sitting in a row
G Am Cmaj7
They talk a lot about things they should not yet know
G Am Cmaj7
It’s a slow, slow going…
G Am Cmaj7
It’s a slow, slow going…
[Chorus]
G Cmaj7
I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head
G Cmaj7
Say don’t you want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
G Cmaj7
Why would you not want to go there?
Cmaj7
Oh Oh Oh.... Fade Out.
