intro: C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6      C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6

[C] Gali[Gsus]leo's head was [F6(9)] on the block [G7 - G6] 
[C] The crime was [Gsus] looking up the [F6(9)] truth [G7 - G6] 
[C] And as the [Gsus] bombshells of my [F6(9)] daily fears explode [Gsus]
I try to [Am] trace them [Em(C)/B] to my [F6(9)] youth [Gsus] 

And then you had to bring up reincarnation
Over a couple of beers the other night
And now I'm serving time for mistakes
Made by another in another lifetime

Chorus:
How [C] long till my [Gsus] soul gets it [F6(9)] right? [Gsus] Can any human 
[C] being ever [Gsus] reach that kind of [F6(9)] light? [Gsus] I call on the 
[Am] resting [Em(C)/B] soul of [D13] Galileo 
King of [F6(9)] night vision,[Gsus] king of [C] insight [Gsus]  [F6(9)] [Gsus]

Then I think about my fear of motion
Which I never could explain
Some other fool across the ocean years ago
Must have crashed his little airplane

Repeat Chorus: (except last line)
King of [F6(9)] night vision,[Gsus] king of [C] insight [C]

[Am] I'm not making a [F/A] joke,
you know me I take [F#dim/A] everything so [F/A] seriously 
If we [Am] wait for the time till all [F/A] souls get it right
 
Then at [Gsus]least I know there'll [F6(9)]be no nucle[Gsus]ar
annihi[F6(9)]lation in my [C]lifetime; [Gsus]I'm still not [F6(9)]right [Gsus] 
 
C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6      C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6
C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6      Am    Em(C)/B    D13    D13
F6(9)   Gsus      C   Gsus   F6(9)   Gsus      C   Gsus   F6(9)   Gsus

I offer thanks to those before me
That's all I've got to say
'Cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime
Now I have to pay

But then again it feels like some sort of inspiration
To let the next life off the hook
She'll say, "look what I had to overcome from my last life
I think I'll write a book"

Repeat Chorus

How long till my soul gets it right...
How long till I meet that highest light...
How [C] long? [Gsus]   [F6(9)]   [Gsus]   [C].
