Take off, little winged creature 
                 G7              G7sus4 
It's nothing but teens in ravines 
    C9                      F    Fsus4   F 
And antics on concrete down here 
            G7           G7sus4      C9                         F  Fsus4  F 
And are you really as free as all the great songs would have me believe? 
                    G7                 G7sus4      C9   F    Fsus4      F 
Let me tell you why some day, Birdie, you're gonna envy me 

A#7             A#dim            Cm Cm/A# F    Fsus4    F 
Some dream of a world written in lines of code 
                  G7              G7sus4 C9 
Well, I hope they engineer out politics, romance, and edifice 
          F                Fsus4    F 
Two outta three ain't bad 
A#7             A#dim             Cm     Cm/A# F   Fsus4   F 
Some envision a state governed by laws of business 
G7                     G7sus4     C9 
Merger and acquisition instead of violence or nations 
         F           Fsus4   F 
Where do I sign up?

Take off, little winged creature 
                 G7       G7sus4 C9                         F    Fsus4   F 
It's nothing but falling debris, strollers, and babies down here 
               G7         G7sus4 C9                        F              Fsus4    F 
And you may be up in the sky but our paradigms are just as deep and just as wide 
              G7          G7sus4 C9   
What with all our best attempts at transcendence 
            F              Fsus4   F 
Something's bound to take

Soon, we'll live in a global culture devoid of gender or race 
             G7          
There's just one tiny line: 
  G7sus4      C9 
You're either born behind 
                  F            Fsus4   F 
Or you're free to peek inside

Life as just narrative, metadata in aggregate 
          G7            G7sus4 C9 
Where the enigma of humanity's wrapped up finally 
             F            Fsus4     F 
That as they say is that 

             Cm        Cm/A# F     Fsus4   F 
Oh, that day can't come soon enough 
      Cm    Cm/A# F   Fsus4   F 
It'll be so glorious 
          Cm      Cm/A#           F        Fsus4    F 
When they finally find out what's bugging us
