VERSE 1 - Rhythm Acoustic Guitar 

F#m          A           C#m      Bm 
When I was a young boy I tried to listen 

F#m         A         C#m 
And I wanna feel like that 

F#m          A       C#m       Bm 
Little white shadows blink and miss them 

F#m       A       C#m 
Part of a system, I am

VERSE 2 

(With RIFF 2) 
If you ever feel like something's missing 
Things you'll never understand 

{INTRO/RIFF 1 reappears here (an octave lower than in the intro)} 
Little white shadows 
Sparkle and glisten 
Part of a system, a plan 

VERSE 3 

(with RIFF 2) 
When I was a young boy I tried to listen 
Don't you wanna feel like that? 

{INTRO/RIFF 1 an octave lower again} 
You're part of the human race 
All of the stars and the outer space 
Part of the system, a plan

OUTRO - Organ transcribed for Rhythm Acoustic Guitar 

F#m 
Swam on a sea of faces 

D 
A tide of the human races 

A                           C#m 
Oh, an answer now is what I need 

(same chords as above) 
See it in a new sun rising 
See it break on your horizon 
Oh, come on love, stay with me 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Phew...thats it. Pretty easy song, but complex arrangement and its hard to hear all the  
intricacies that the guitarist is employing under all those organs. anyways...good luck!
