Up With People


Tom: Am

     C                C
The painter tries to paint it
     C             C
the poet tries to say it
        G                     F                      C
The philosopher tries to convey the meaning to your mind.


     G        Gm                   Am
But here I am – a quarter million miles away
                             G                       C
One human being – one human seeing it for the first time.


[Bridge]
       C                             Cmaj7
I can see the white of snow-capped mountains
               C9                      F
The blues and turquoise of the oceans blend.
               Am                    G
Australia and Asia coming round the corner
                        Gsus             G                   Am
And I can't tell where one country starts and the other one ends.


[Verse 1]
     Am
The sun is setting on the Pacific
         Dm                 Am
They're just getting up in Rome.
         Am
I don't see the lights of my city
 D                Esus     E
All I can see is home.


[Chorus]
           Dm                Am
I saw the world without any borders
             Cm     D7
Without any fighting without any fear
    F                G
So Captain give the order
       Bbm6                        F
We're going to cross the next frontier.


[Verse 2]
   Am
I know this view won't last forever
Dm                         Am
Soon I'll be back to reality.
          Am
But isn't it the way we perceive things
      D                         Esus   E
That makes them what they will be?


[Chorus]
            Dm               Am
I see the world without any borders
             Cm        D7
Without any fighting without any fear
    F                G
So Captain give the order
       Bbm6                         F
We're going to cross the next frontier


[Chorus]
           Dm                Am
I see the world without any borders
             Cm         D7
Without any fighting without any fears
    F                G
So Captain give the order
       Bbm6                         F
We're going to cross the next frontier


[Outro]
    F                G
So Captain give the order
       Bbm6
we're going to cross the
           F
next frontier.
