Chords by Theresa Davey, it should be about 98% right, let me know of any 
corrections i need to make.

No CAPO needed, although depending on your vocal range, you may find it easier to use one.

A                     Em
how long before I get in
Em                           D
before it starts, before I begin
A                     Em
how long before you decide
Em                           D
before I know what it feels like
A                    Em
where to, where do I go
Em                                 D
if you never tried then you'll never know
A                        Em
how long do I have to climb
Em                                 D
up on this side of this mountain of mine

A                        Em
look up, I look up at night
Em                                     D
planets are moving at the speed of light
A                      Em
climb up, up in the trees
Em                                           D
every chance that you get, is a chance you seize
A                 Em
how long am I gonna stand
Em                             D
with my head stuck under the sand
A                      Em
I'll start before I can stop
Em                             D
before I see things the right way up

G              A               Bm
all that noise, all that sound
G           A                Bm
all those places that i got found
G                           Bm
and birds go flying at the speed of sound
F#m                  G
to show you how it all began
G                           Bm
birds come flying from the underground
F#m                         G
if you could see it then you'd understand

A                         Em
ideas that you'll never find
Em                               D
all the inventors could never design
A                           Em
the buildings that you put up
Em                            D
Japan and China were all lit up
A                          Em
the sign that I couldn't read
Em                           D
or the light that I couldn't see
A                            Em
somethings you have to believe
Em                                D
but others are puzzles, puzzling me


G              A               B
all that noise, all that sound
G           A                Bm
all those places that i got found
G                           Bm
and birds go flying at the speed of sound
F#m                  G
to show you how it all began
G                           Bm
birds come flying from the underground
F#m                         G
if you could see it then you'd understand
D


G            A                   Bm                    E
all those signs I knew what they meant something you can't invent
G        A                 Bm          E
some get made and some get sent, ooo-oooh


G              A               Bm
all that noise, all that sound
G           A                Bm
all those places that i got found
G                           Bm
and birds go flying at the speed of sound
F#m                  G
to show you how it all began
G                           Bm
birds come flying from the underground
F#m                         G
if you could see it then you'd understand
F#m                         G
oh if you could see it then you'd understand

quite accurate, but the Em in the verse should always be a G (for both Em's) Also the F#m in the verse should be a D the first time meaning G, Bm, D, G, G, Bm, F#m, G :)
