Dm                                           Bb
He had a thousand ideas, You might have heard his name
F                                                        C                                     G5
He lived alone with his vision, Not looking for fortune and fame
Dm                                                         Bb
Never said too much to speak of He was off on another plane
F                                                                                           C          G5
The words that he said were a mystery Nobody's sure he was sane

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                   Dm                F                      G Dm
But he knew He knew more than me or you
F                                   G       Dm          Bb           C G5
No one could see his view Where was he going to

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Verse 2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dm                                                      Bb
He was in search of an answer The nature of what we are
F                                                                    C           G5
He was trying to do it a new way He was bright as a star
Dm                                                   Bb
But nobody understood him "His numbers are not the way"
F                                                                     C                         G5
He's lost in the deepest enigma Which no one's unraveled today

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                    Dm               F                     G Dm
But he knew He knew more than me or you
F                                 G         Dm               Bb          C G5
No one could see his view Oh Where was he going to
                  Dm           F                               G      Dm
And he tried But before he could tell us he died
F                                  G                     Dm          Bb            C G5
When he left us the people cried Oh, where was he going to

Dm                                Bb
He had a different idea A glimpse of the master plan
F                                                        C                   G5
He could see into the future A true visionary man
Dm                                                                            Bb
But there's something he never told us It died when he went away
F                                                                           C                 G5
If only he could have been with us No telling what he might say

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But he knew He knew more than me or you

No one could see his view Oh Where was he going to

But he knew You could tell by the picture he drew
F                               G                 Dm              Bb         C G5
It was totally something new Oh, where was he going to
