The Alan Parsons Project - Inside Looking Out
from Gaudi, 1987
 GTo touch the Dsky  
[G]  Adreamer must [D]be 
BmSomeone who has more
imagiEmnation than Ame
To reach the Dstars
 A[G]dreamer must [D]fly
BmSomehow he must live more of a
Emlifetime than AI
 F#mFor sands of time won't wait
 AAnd it may be too late
 GNow it is the hour and the Dmoment
 GDon't let the chance go Dby
Bm7Your ship is sailing with the Ghigh tide
Bm7And all your dreams are on the Ginside
On the Dinside looking Aout, 
on the Dinside, looking Aout
Looking Em7out, looking Bm7out 
Looking Em7out, looking Bm7out 
 GTo change the Dworld
[G]  Adreamer must [D]be
BmSomeone who has more
determiEmnation than Ame
To free his Dsoul
[G]  Adreamer must [D]fly
BmSomewhere he must find a better
Emreason than AI
 F#The hands of time won't wait
 AAnd we may be too late
 GNow is the hour and the Dmoment
 GDon't let a day pass Dby
 Bm7Your ship is sailing with the Ghigh tide
 Bm7You could be standing on the Ginside
On the Dinside looking Aout, 
on the Dinside, looking Aout
On the Dinside looking Aout, 
on the Dinside, looking Aout
Looking Em7out, looking Bm7out 
Looking Em7out, looking Bm7out
