[Verse 1]
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7 G6
Galileo's head was on the block
C Gsus4
The crime was lookin' up the truth
Fadd9 G7 G6
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7
And as the bombshells of my daily fears explode
G6 Am Cmaj7/E
I try to trace them to my youth
F Gsus4
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7
And then you had to bring up reincarnation
G6 C Gsus4
Over a couple of beers the other night
Fadd9 G7
G6 C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7
And now I'm serving time for mistakes Made
G6 Am Cmaj7/E F Gsus4
by another in another life time
[Chorus]
C Gsus4
How long 'til my soul gets it right
Fadd9 G C Gsus4
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
Fadd9 G Am Cmaj7/E Amadd11/D
I call on the resting soul of Galileo king of
Fadd9 Gadd11
night vision
C Gsus4
King of insight
Fadd9 G7 G6
[Verse 2]
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7 G6
And then I think about my fear of motion
C Gsus4
Which I never could explain
Fadd9 G7 G6
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7
Some other fool across the ocean years ago
G6 Am Cmaj7/E F Gsus4
Must have crashed his little airplane
[Chorus]
C Gsus4
How long 'til my soul gets it right
Fadd9 G C Gsus4
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
Fadd9 G Am Cmaj7/E Amadd11/D
I call on the resting soul of Galileo king of
Fadd9 Gadd11
night vision
C
King of insight
[Bridge]
Am
I'm not making a joke
F/A F#dim/A F/A
You know me I take everything so seriously
Am F/A
If we wait for the time 'til all souls get it right
Gsus4/B F/A
Then at least I know there'll be no
Gsus4/B F/A C Gsus4
nuclear annihilation in my life time
Fadd9 G
I'm still not right
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7 G6
I offer thanks to those before me
C Gsus4
That's all I've got to say
Fadd9 G7
G6 C Gsus4 Fadd9
'Cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your
G7 G6 Am Cmaj7/E
lifetime Now I have to pay
F
Gsus4 C Gsus4
But then again it feels like some sort of
Fadd9 G7
inspiration
G6 C Gsus4 Fadd9
To let the next life off the hook
G7 G6
Or she'll
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7 G6
say look what I had to overcome from my last life
Am Cmaj7/E F Gsus4
I think I'll write a book
[Chorus]
C Gsus4
How long 'til my soul gets it right
Fadd9 G C Gsus4
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
Fadd9 G Am
Except for Galileo,
Cmaj7/E Amadd11/D
God rest his soul
Fadd9
King of the night vision,
Gadd11
king of insight
C Gsus4 Fadd9 G7 G6 C Gsus4 Fadd9
How long (until my
G C Gsus4 Fadd9 G C
soul gets it right)
Gsus4 Fadd9 G C
How long (until my soul
