Dsus4/A D/A Dsus2/A
[Verse 1]
Dsus2/A D/A Dsus4/A Dsus2/A
Gathered, sorted and dispersed,
Dsus2/A D/A
Lined up in rows to see. Hushed in our conversation,
Dsus2/A D/A Dsus4/A D/A
What cause have we to rejoice asks one man.
Dsus2/A
I say look at your hands your feet and feel your heart,
D/A Dsus2/A D/A
What other reason do we need.
[Chorus]
D
The pipes shine, like liquid metal,
Dmaj7 D7
Falling from the invisible, infinite well above,
G
the alter that soaks up all of their offerings,
Em Asus4 A
Their sacrament, meaning much more than words.
D Dmaj7
Stops out, the very air exalted,
D7
by the ringing golden machine,
G
as it sings it’s praises to the world,
Em
to the clouds the sun and me.
Asus4 A
And to you hear it say Christine,
N.C. Dsus4/A D/A
Gloria-a-a-a-a-a.
Dsus4/A D/A Dsus2/A D/A
Gloria-a-a-a-a-a.
[Verse 2]
Dsus2/A D/A
A great throne before us, or rather the center,
Dsus4/A Dsus2/A
of some great nervous system.
D/A Dsus4/A
An endless field of controls.
Dsus4/A
Tell me where was the one that turned on the color,
D/A
Where is the lever to mystify and hypnotize away,
D/A Dsus4/A
All our everlasting fears and where,
D/A Dsus2/A
was the stop, that filled me up with warmth.
[Chorus]
D
The pipes shine, like liquid metal,

Their sacrament, meaning much more than words.
D Dmaj7
Stops out, the very air exalted,

Gloria-a-a-a-a-a.
Dsus2/A D/A Dsus4/A
Gloria-a-a-a-a-a.
Dsus4/A Dsus2/A D/A
Gloria-a-a-a-a-a.
[Bridge]
G
Did you have the time, did you have the strength?
Bm
The will or the patience to make a little light in this,
Bsus2 Bm
dark world. A light that shines so much brighter,
G
Than any lamp.
G
No, no I’ll never go back, I gotta,
G
get up, get up, get up, get, get out of this,
Bm Bsus2
kind of mind that said to never believe, never give in,
Bm G
And never surrender yourself, unto the magic again,
Em Asus4 A D
unto the magic again, unto, ooh, the magic again.
[Outro]
