Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse #1:

Marigolds and bougainvillea

Pressed against the fence

This might be my opportunity

To finally make some sense

Climbing towards the sky I gained a better understanding

About the sky in fact the sky starts on the ground here

So when I'm reaching up I'm really reaching out the boundaries

 And I'm all dialed in

 Cause we're all connected

Verse #2:

It's a simple life today, no matter what they pay me

Playing is my reward

So take it easy on the world when she's someone else's girlfriend

Taste her cake and see how she likes you

Climbing to the sky to get the other kind of knowledge

And the world is watching waiting from the wings

So when I'm singing out I'm really thinking how astounding it is

 How we're all dialed in

 We're all connected

 We're all connected

 We're all connected

Bridge

Oh this spirit lies in Auld Lang Syne

 And If you ain't here today, you're just digging an icy grave

Bottle some hurt and fill in the dirt

 And take them old marigolds away

Well, climbing to the sky has never been my destination

Because the only way to stop is by jumping off

I don't need no microphone to address the nation

 Cause I'm all dialed in

 And we're all connected

 Yeah, we're all connected

 Yeah, we're all connected
