Words and Music By Gary Kemp


 5   5       5  5  5   5   5
So true --- funny how it seems
 -5  5 -4   4 
Always in time
 4  -5 5   -4  4   -4    5
But never in time for dreams
  5  6 -6  -7     6   5   6  4
Head over heel, when toe to toe
 -4  -4  4    6   -6  6  4  
This is the sound of my soul
    4  -4  4    6
( This is the sound )
 -6  -6   -6 -6 6  -5  5    5  
 I bought a ticket to the world
 -5  -5  -5   -5   5   -4  5  -4 
But now I've come back again~~~~~
 -6  -6 -6  7   7   6
Why do  I find it hard
 6   6    6    6    5
To write the next line
  4  -5  5   4    -5   5  4   4
When I want the truth to be said

Chorus

 4    -5  6    -7  -7  6
Huh, Huh huh, huh huh huh
4   6    4    6   4  -4  4
I know this much is true ~~
 4    -5  6    -7  -7  6
Huh, Huh huh, huh huh huh
4   6    4    6   4   -6   
I know this much is true
 6  -5  5  -4  4  4  3
    ****Instr******

 5   5   -5    5  5   6 
With a thrill in my head 
 5  5   6  -6  6   4
And a pill on my tongue
 4   -4   4     6    -5    5  -4  5 
Dissolve the nerves that just begun
 5   -5    6  -7  6  5   -8    -8  7
List'ning to Marvin all night long ~~
  4  -4  4    6       -6  6   4  
This is the sound --- of my soul
    4  -4  4    6   -5 6
( This is the sound ~~~~~ )

 -6 -6   -6  6   -5   5   5
Always slipping from my hands
 -5   -5 -5   5  -4   5  -4 
Sands a time of it's own ~~~
 -6   -6   7    7   6
Take your sea side arms
 6    6    6    6    5
And write the next line
 4 -5  5   4    -5   5  4   4      
Oh I want the truth to be known


Chorus

 4    -5  6    -7  -7  6
Huh, Huh huh, huh huh huh
4   6    4    6   4  -4  4
I know this much is true ~~
 4    -5  6    -7  -7  6
Huh, Huh huh, huh huh huh
4   6    4    6   4   -6   
I know this much is true
 6  -5  5  -4  4  4  3
    ****Instr******
