Bm        A
Basic elemental
Bm              A
Instinct to survive
Bm                A
Stirs the higher passions
  Bm           A
Thrill to be alive
Bm           A
Alternating currents
Bm              A
In a tidewater surge
Bm          A
Rational resistance
Bm           A
To an unwise urge
G
Anything can happen.

Chorus:
D                     G
From the point of conception
Bm                 E
To the moment of truth
D                   G
At the point of surrender
Bm                 A
To the burden of proof

The point of the journey
Bm           A
Is not to arrive
G
Anything can happen.

Basic temperamental
Filters on our eyes
Alter our perceptions
Lenses polarize
Alternating currents
Force a show of hands
Rational responses
Force a change of plans
Anything can happen...

Chorus:
From a point on the compass
To magnetic north
The point of the needle
Moving back and forth
From the point of entry
Until the candle is burned
The point of departure
Is not to return
Anything can happen.

   C#m               B
I set the wheels in motion
C#m                 B
Turn up all the machines
C#m            B
Activate the programs
    C#m              B
And run behind the scene
   C#m               B
I set the clouds in motion
C#m                B
Turn up light and sound
C#m           B
Activate the window
     A
And watch the world go 'round

Chorus:
From the point of conception
To the moment of truth
At the point of surrender
To the burden of proof
From the point of ignition
To the final drive
The point of a journey
Is not to arrive
Anything can happen.

Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
Anything can happen...
