Intro: D--C-G/B-G-Em-Am--D--C--


Verse 1:
G            D      C
  When I was only a zygote
G           D          C
  I still remember the time
G                D
  When there was nothing to 
C
know or to think about
C            G/B         A   D
  Except the sound of my mind
C         G/B           Am
  And the sound from outside


Chorus 1:
D     G
SenSurround
            Am
Down at the bottom
     G/B             C
Sensible to ear and sternum
        D
And the world first spoke 
   C     D     G    D-Em-Am--Cm--
to me in SenSurround


Verse 2:
G            D               C
  If mom had known she was expecting
G                D           C
  She might have gone to see Jaws
G            D         C
  Instead of picking a film 
where the sound effects
C            G/B            A    D
  Came right up through the floor
C            G/B         Am
  And I'd be differently formed


(Repeat Chorus 1)


Bridge:
D                 C
  Accidently in a coal 
G/B  G  Am  A
mine it was found
D
  When they accidently 
C   G/B G   Am
dug too far down
    A               D    C--
And found the SenSurround


Verse 3:
G               D           C
  I still don't know who conceived it
G               D        C
  Or where they got the idea
G              D
  But there it was in the 
C
aisle by the exit sign
C          G/B        A   D
  A woofer covered in wood
C              G/B          Am
  to shake the room when it should


Chorus 2:
D     G
SenSurround
            Am
Down at the bottom
     G/B             C
Sensible to ear and sternum
         D           C
Made the fakeness realistic
D        G              Am
When the action went ballistic
      G/B           C
One degree shy of sadistic
        D
And the world first spoke 
   C     D     G    D-Em-Am-
to me in SenSurround


Bass Solo: F#-C#/F
G#m         Eb/G       F# C#/F
pa pa ra pa pa pa pa pa
G#m         Eb/G       F# C#/F
pa pa ra pa pa pa pa pa
G#m         Eb/G       F# C#/F Em(hold)--C--
pa pa ra pa pa pa pa pa


Verse 4:
G            D              C
  If I could swim under the water
G         D         C
  without having to breathe
G            D          C
  If I could follow the trail 
to the ocean floor
C             G/B               A D
  I think I'd know what there'd be
C                    G/B         Am
  Down there they're waiting for me


Chorus 3:
D     G
SenSurround
            Am
Down at the bottom
     G/B             C
Sensible to ear and sternum
         D           C
Made the fakeness realistic
D        G              Am
When the action went ballistic
      G/B           C
One degree shy of sadistic
        D
And the world first spoke 
   C     D     G    D-Em-Am-Cm--Eb--Bb(hold)
to me in SenSurround
