Some Other World
Elton John/Bruce Roberts
available on the Ferngully OST (1992)

Am - Em - G - F (x2)

      Bb
You stare through a tunnel of

Solid wall that should be broken down
         F
And you can't see the field of green
          C
Has been turned into a raging battleground
            Bb
And you'll live with the consequence

Tell me why don't you understand
            F
You'll destroy all the love that's been created
      C
Be a miser with an empty hand

         Eb
And it's all such a simple thing
  Bb
Changing everything
 Cm                          Bb                G
Listen to the one who brings all this love to you

C/G                                          G        Am
Some other world, some other world, that's where you live
C/G                                          G        Am
Some other world, some other world, that's where you live
            F             C/E       G/D
Don't you care, stop and think about us and what you feel
          F              C/E          G/D
I'll be there, don't you cut yourself off from what is real
               F          C     Am  Em   G    F     G
Don't live in some other world, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
                   F          C     Am  Em   G    F 
You don't live in some other world  ooh ooh, ooh ooh

           Bb    
There's a boat bound for paradise

If you hurry you can ride it back
                  F
'Cause once the bait hits the water
               C
It don't take long 'till the sharks attack

            Eb
Oh but it's all such a simple thing
  Bb
Change is everything
 Cm                          Bb                G
Let me be the one who brings all this love to you

C/G                                          G        Am
Some other world, some other world, that's where you live
C/G                                          G        Am
Some other world, some other world, that's where you live
           F              C/E       G/D
Don't you care, stop and think about us and what you feel
          F              C/E          G/D
I'll be there, don't you cut yourself off from what is real
               F          C         Am         Em
Don't live in some other world, in some other world
        G             F          C         Am         Em
Oh you don't live in some other world, in some other world
 F                                Bb
Got to stop living in some other world

Eb - Bb - F
        C
Let me help you with a change of mind

And it's all such a simple thing
Changing everything
Listen to the one who brings all this love to you

repeat chorus
        Am   Em             G      F
This is our world, not some other world

                              C
You don't live in some other world
        Am   Em              G     F
Live in our world, not some other world
                              C
You don't live in some other world
        Am   Em              G     F
Live in our world, not some other world   (ad lib)
