No Capo
[Intro]
Am C G
[Verse 1]
  AmThought I was the center of the systemC  
Now I am even more confGirmed
Look at all the mess that I've created
What an extraordinary pictureAM  
All the rules that I've establishedC  
Now I'm breaking each and every one of themG  
Placing them with brand new orders
On and on for liberation
  AmOh if you really were the oneC  
You'd believe it when I saidF  
There is beauty in higher mGountains which I'm standing right in
[Chorus]
 CRun run run away from hoEm--me
There's a voice in both my head and my hearG--t
Shangri-shangri-la is calling
 CRun run away from the daEm--rk
I wanna what reality is Am7all about
 GShangri-shangri-la is callingE7  
 C/G   Gx1
[Verse 2]
  AmFor a while thought I wanna be SisyphusC  
But then I held back, this kind of rebel's tragic liG-ke hell
Why so choiceless?
 CThere must be worlds of higher dimAmensions
That are homes to consciousness, Flove, and the purpose of existence
 GTranscendence is my mission
  AMOh, I thought you were the oneC  
I believed everything you saidF  
But nothing will keep me from searching
GTill the edge of the observables' liC/G-mit
