E                           G#m
Well I've been hanging downside up
C#m                   A
Feeling really banged up
        C#m                  A
Wishing everybody would shut up
C#                    B7
In the village of the sun

Well, it's more than just a little bit loud
But are we more than just a little proud
To think that the opinions of rocks and of clouds
Would even give us recognition

         E         G#
Though I echo, it decays
C#m                       G#
I hear a sound that is delayed
C#m                            G#
And I know that help is on the way
C#                     B7
To the village of the sun

        E          C#m
To the powers that be
        E          C#m
To the powers that be
   G#           F# B
To an hour to be

Is it the intention of that child
To be a bastard in the wild
Eventually move to his inventions
Like the invention of a cannon

Of course a cannon makes a ruckus
Or like the lady in that circus
We could try and make them fly us
Right out the village of the sun
To the powers that be
To the powers that be
To an hour to be

Well, maybe I've said enough
And I wasn't trying to be all funny
And I wasn't trying to be all tough
And I'm almost done

Doesn't matter what I say
Or for that matter what sayeth thee
And ain't that the way
In the village of the sun

To the powers that be
To the powers that be
To an hour to be

To the powers that be
To the powers that be
To an hour to be
