  Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home

Verse 2
  To keep in silence I resigned
  My friends would think I was a nut
  Turning water into wine
  Open doors would soon be shut
  So I went from day to day
  Though my life was in a rut
  Till I thought of what I'd say
  And which connection I should cut
  I was feeling part of the scenery
  I walked right out of the machinery
  My heart going boom boom boom
  Son, he said, grab your things I've come to take you home

  yeaah, back home

Verse 3
  When illusion spin her net
  I'm never where I want to be
  And liberty she pirouette
  When I think that I am free
  Watched by empty silhouettes
  Who close their eyes but still can see
  No one taught them etiquette
  So I will show another me
  Today I don't need a replacement
  I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
  My heart going boom boom boom
  Hey, I said, you can keep my things they've come to take me home


Finish off song with some heavy power chords on xx42x (high to low) with
good distorsion

"Let freedom ring"

"Oh Rock of ages do not crumble love is breathing still"
"Oh Lady Moonshine down, a little people magic if you will"

This tab was created with the help of an Amiga computer and the sampling
software Audiomaster IV, under the menu effects/duration/pitch the
frequency and the pitch can be doubled, thus enabling the program to play
back the sample at half the speed but with the original pitch.
