(E major) At the (A major) (E major) (D major) top of the stairs he finds a chamber. It is almost a hemisphere (B minor) (D major) with a great many doors all the way round its circumference. There is a large crowd, huddled in (B minor) (D major) various groups. From the shouting,
Rael learns that there are 32 doors, but only one (F sharp minor) that (B minor) leads out. Their voices get (F sharp minor) louder and louder until Rael screams "Shut up!" There is a momentary silence (A major) and then Rael finds himself the focus as they direct (B minor) their advice and commands to their new found (D major) recruit. Bred on trash, fed on ash the jigsaw master has got to move faster. Rael sees a quiet corner and rushes to it. (B minor) (F sharp major)

At the top of the stairs, there's (F sharp major)
hundreds of people,
(A flatdim) Running around to (B minor) all the doors.
They (F sharp major) try to find,
find themselves an audience;
their de (A flatdim) ductions (B minor) need applause.

This chamber of (B minor) so (D major) many doors;

if you'd help me,
Find a door (F sharp minor)
(A major) That doesn't lead me
(E major) back again (D major) (D major)
