Imagine a man
|E/B |Em/B
Not a child of any revolt
|B |B7sus2 |E6/B |Em6/B |
But a plain man tied up in life
|B |B7
Imagine the sand
|E/B |Em/B
Running out as he struts
|B |B7sus2 |E6/B |Em6/B |
Parading and fading, ignoring his wife
Imagine a road
So long looking backwards
You can't see where it really began
Imagine a load
So large and so smooth
That against it a man is an ant
{Chorus}
|A |B |C#m|D#m|E | | |
And you will see the end
|E |B |E/B B |B Bmaj7 |Bmaj7 E/B |B | |
You will see the end (I-)

Imagine events
That occur everyday
Like a shooting or raping or a simple act of deceit
Imagine a fence
Around you as high as prudential
Cast in shadows, you can't see your feet
Imagine a girl
With long flowing hair
And the body of chalky perfection and truth
Imagine a past
That you wish you had lived
Full of heroes and villains and fools
{repeat Chorus}
|A |B |C#m|D#m|E | | |
And you will see the end
E |B |E/B B |E/B B |E/B B |
You will see the end

And you will see the end
E |B |E/B B |B Bmaj7 |Bmaj7 E/B |B | |
You will see the end, oh yeah
Imagine a man
Not a child of any revolt
But a man of today feeling new
Imagine a soul
So old it is broken
And you know your invention is you
{repeat Chorus}
And you will see the end
You will see the end
You will see the end
You will see the end, oh yeah
