[F] Galileo's [C] head was [Bb] on the block [C7] 
[F] The crime was [C] looking up the [Bb] truth  [C7] 
[F] And as the [C] bombshells of my [Bb] daily fears ex-[C]plode 
I try to [Dm] trace them [Am] to my [Bb] youth [C7]

[F] And then you [C] had to bring up [Bb] reincar-[C]nation  
Over a [F] couple of [C] beers the other [Bb] night [C] 
And [F] now I'm serving [C] time for [Bb] mistakes 
[C] Made by a-[Dm]nother in [Am] another [Bb] life-[C]time 

[F] How long 'til my [C] soul gets it [Bb] right 
Can [C] any human [F] being ever [C] reach that kind of [Bb] light 
I [C] call on the [Dm] resting [Am] soul of [G] Galileo 
King of [Bb] night vision [C] king of [F] in-[C]sight

And [F] then I [C] think about my fear of [Bb] motion [C7]  
[F] Which I [C] never could ex-[Bb]plain  [C7] 
[F] Some other [C] fool across the [Bb] ocean years a-[C]go  
Must have [Dm] crashed his [Am] little air-[Bb]plane  [C]

[F] How long 'til my [C] soul gets it [Bb] right 
Can [C] any human [F] being ever [C] reach that kind of [Bb] light 
I [C] call on the [Dm] resting [Am] soul of [G] Galileo 
King of [Bb] night vision [C] king of [F] in-[C]sight

[Dm] I'm not making a [Bb] joke, you know me, I take [Dm] everything so [Bb] seriously 
If we [Dm] wait for the time till all [Bb] souls get it right 
Then at [C] least I know there'll [Bb] be no nuclear [C] annihilation [Bb] 
In my [F] lifetime, [C] I'm still not [Bb] right [C]
[F] [C] [Bb] [C7] [Dm] [Am] [G] [G] [Bb] [C] [F] x 3

[F] I offer [C] thanks to those [Bb] before me [C7] 
[F] That's all I've [C] got to [Bb] say [C7] 
[F] Maybe you [C] squandered big [Bb] bucks in your life-[C]time  
[Dm] Now I [Am] have to [Bb] pay [C]

[F] But then again it feels like [C] some sort of inspi-[Bb]ration  [C7] 
To let the [F] next life [C] off the [Bb] hook [C7] 
Or she'll say [F] “look what I [C] had to overcome [Bb] from my last [C] life 
[Dm] I think I'll [Am] write a [Bb] book” [C]

[F] How long 'til my [C] soul gets it [Bb] right 
Can [C] any human [F] being ever [C] reach that kind of [Bb] light 
I [C] call on the [Dm] resting [Am] soul of [G] Galileo 
King of [Bb] night vision [C] king of [F] in-[C]sight
How [F] long 'til my [C] soul gets it [Bb] right, 
[C] how [F] long 'til I [C] meet that highest [Bb] light 
How [F] lo- [C] -o- [Bb] -o- [C] -o- [F] ng
