Taken For A Ride

Cmaj7
Verse 1:

C7+                          Em
Marvin walked into a helpless land and wondered lightly
       G#                D#      A#
"Am I happy?....Is this happy?"
C7+                          Em
Following the footsteps set by man he said to reprimand
     G#              D#      A#
the mystic, Who's sadistic
C7+                     Em
Took a step into the elevaaaator who said,
                     G#               D#      A#
"Guess I'll see you later, don't you worry."
C7+                                   Em
Fifteen flights that lasted nights and days that spent
                     G#                   D#         A#
without a cent for creatures, with their beat shirts


Prechorus:

A#*   C*     A#*      G#*       A#*      
    A#*    G#*
Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill


Verse 2:

C7+                              Em
Next the stranded senate from the white brick house with flowers
            G#                   D#    A#
asked some questions for their story
    C7+                            Em
All feeling now he took his bow and left the stage of time
        G#             D#       A#
with no answers to no questions
C7+                          Em
Lonely paperbacks that wanted just a taste of feeling
       G#                D#     A#
to implode them, before living
C7+                             Em
Tiptoed to that wooden sign that said,
                                  G#             D#     A#
"now take your place in line for happy, this is lovely"


Prechorus:

A#*   C*     A#*      G#*       A#*      
    A#*    G#*
Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill


Chorus:

F    C         Dm      C#             G#
One secondary smile to go that extra mile
    C#           G#      G#/G**       F
to make me feel today to make it go away
      C           Dm   C#          G#
the chemistry is gone taken for a ride
    Db          Ab      Db                Cmaj7--Em--G#--D#--A#
far   away from you No longer left inside


Verse 3:

    C7+                               Em
the actor with his world renowned was thinking
                            G#             D#     A#
'bout his last real day of silence, was it over?
   C7+                              Em
or  is  it just we all think that our answer isn't real
            G#           D#     A#
its just a picture of a letter
C7+                             Em
bumble mumble make the rounds no matter what you'll seem profound
      G#              D#     A#
it's useless just to worry
C7+                              Em
something normal happens somewhere far away in clouds
                G#               D#     A#
so please stop thinking this is happy


Prechorus:

A#*   C*     A#*      G#*       A#*      
    A#*    D#*  E*
Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill


Chorus(2x):

F    C         Dm      C#             G#
One secondary smile to go that extra mile
    C#           G#      G#/G         F
to make me feel today to make it go away
      C           Dm   C#          G#
the chemistry is gone taken for a ride
    C#         G#      G#/G          F
far  away from you No longer left inside


     C         Dm      C#             G#
One secondary smile to go that extra mile
    C#           G#      G#/G         F
to make me feel today to make it go away
      C           Dm   C#          G#
the chemistry is gone taken for a ride
    C#         G#      G#/G             (G#--A#--C#...2x)
far  away from you No longer left inside

End Verse:

                            G#--A#--C#
there're no secrets in the door
                      G#--A#--C#
just a moment doing chores
                                    G#
and there's something, and there's something
             A#                    C#
and there's something and there's something next to nothing
             G#                    A#
and there's something and there's something
            C#
But you're gone
