G                     Bm                  C             G
Oh, God said to me "Gonna kick your ass, 'cos all you do is ask, ask, ask
G               Bm                       C                        G
All that energy looking for me, when I'm sitting here inside you, plain to see
D               C        G              C         G               C            G
How I built you cell for cell, gave you sights to see, I gave you tales to tell
D                     C          G         C         G               C         G G
Even let you help yourself for a while, to take some weight off this busy child."


[Verse 2]
      G              Bm                  C                        G
Now I said to God "I found you out, 'cos I know what this life is all about!"
    G                     Bm                        C                          G
And God said "Stop, don't scramble your brain, my opponent's been messing you around again
    D               C      G     C              G         C       G
See him and me, are enemies, and we play little games for galaxies
    D                   C    G       C       G             C           G G
And he's inside you and I am too, so here we are, just the three of you


[Verse 3]
       G                  Bm              C                   G
Oh, we made mistakes, too many cards, but making human beings can be hard
  G                         Bm                C                            G
A God gets tired of playing so much chess, he wishes his God would get him out of his mess."
  D                      C           G    C             G            C          G
I said to God "What's it like to die?" He said "It's as plain as the sea and sky
   D                  C          G           C         G                 C      G G
Conception was me and him and you, when your batteries fade, we all just move on."


[Verse 4]
      G                  Bm                        C                           G
Oh, I said to God "Who's winning this game? Is the Devil in front? He said "Is that his name?
              G              Bm             C                         G
You know I've been so busy I never asked, I never looked up from this awesome task."
  D                   C            G    C               G                     C         G
I said to God "What's good and bad?" He said "It's just something that you've gotta have
   D                     C         G            C         G           C          G   G
It don't mean nothing to us up here, but you're primitive people, you gotta have fear."


[Verse 5]
      G                 Bm                         C                        G
Now I said to God "Do I think for myself? He said "I told you once you just help yourself
G                          Bm                   C                   G
Don't you forget you're composed of three, your thinking comes from him and me."
      D                C          G    C         G       C         G
Now I said to God "How big are you? Is there a religion? Is it true?
    D                 C    G         C        G          C          G   G
How big's the universe? Is time, the same for you, as my life is to mine?"


[Verse 6]
       G                            Bm                      C                 G
Oh, He said "If all the things that made worlds float, were all to part, then you would note
    G                   Bm             C                 G
The size of him and the size of me and that's how big we both shall be."
   D            C             G      C         G       C            G
He said "The universe is small, just like some fortune-teller's ball
    D                       C        G          C        G            C           G G
And we both sit down and we play the game, when somebody wins, it all starts again


[Verse 7]
        G            Bm          C                              G
There's no religion, you did that, it helps to keep your little leaders fat
     G              Bm               C                 G
Like faith and superstition stay, to help you pass the time away
    D                C            G    C        G        C           G
But when you talk of time and life, it makes me think of circles and heights
  D              C          G          C      G           C        G G G
Expansion is the clue, your dreams are nearer than you've ever been


[Verse 8]
        G             Bm               C                 G
Now you see my little toy to think, is from two bowls of wine to drink
      G                Bm               C                       G
Don't take too much or you may drown, behave yourself, see you around."
