Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Like a seed that is sewn,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
All the children are scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
By a breeze that is blown . . .,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Now the crops are all scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
We are torn, we are shattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Now some of us are barmy and battered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the fields where we gathered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Are overgrown in weeds and in tatters,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Through it all we were scattered.
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
To the fields we are scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
From the day we are born . . .,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
To grow wild and sleep rough,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Till from the earth we are torn . . .,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And a soul that is free,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Can live on eternally,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the spirit can live on,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Though it's scattered in the world beyond,
ch]G[/ch
And I've been out of my mind,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Ever since she's been gone.
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I look around that empty room,
ch]D[/ch
No sight nor sound,
ch]Eb[/ch
She's left so soon,
ch]Bb[/ch
She's out of view,
ch]F[/ch
But then I find,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch
Those scattered clues she left behind,
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch
A photograph with a smiling face,
ch]Bb[/ch
A cigarette stubbed out on the fireplace,
ch]F[/ch
A coffee cup with her lipstick stains,
ch]D[/ch
I guess I'll never see her again.
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Now my life is all scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Ever since she's been gone,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
I feel older, I feel fatter,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
I feel the blues coming on . . .,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
We get bruised, we get battered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But we'll pick up the pieces that scattered,
ch]D[/ch
And with emotional glue,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch
We're gonna stick together, body and mind.
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]Eb[/ch
Ever since she went away,
ch]Bb[/ch
I've been alone to contemplate,
ch]F[/ch
Time and space and why world's move,
ch]D[/ch
While sitting in my solitude,
ch]Eb[/ch
I've watched the stars and wondered why,
ch]Bb[/ch
They're scattered up there in the sky,
ch]F[/ch
And is she up there out of view,
ch]D[/ch
On some higher platitude.
Verse 6→ Phiên khúc
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
I wish I knew,
ch]F[/ch
Wish I could prove,
ch]F[/ch
The reason why this life on earth,
ch]D[/ch
Is scattered like the universe,
ch]Eb[/ch
Do bub . . .,
ch]Bb[/ch
Do bub . . .,
ch]F[/ch
I'm scattered here and scattered there,
ch]D[/ch
Bits of me scattered everywhere.
Verse 7→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
To the fields we are scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Then from the dust we are born,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
We survive somewhat battered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
To a new life, a new dawn,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
In the end what will it matter,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
There'll only be my ashes to scatter,
ch]G[/ch
And all the logical answers,
ch]D[/ch
To a worrying mind,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Will be scattered in time,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]Cadd9[/ch
Beaten and battered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
To the earth you are scattered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
You're going home so what does it matter,
ch]G[/ch
To an atomic mind,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]Eb[/ch
Scattered here while you travel time.
Outro
ch]Eb[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Oooh oooh oooh.
