Verse 1
G 
It's a bit of an
Ernest
Busker song, so...
I'll play you a joke.
Well, things are changing so fast
I'm just barely hanging on
Cos the future becomes the present
D 
And in a moment it is gone
Em 
So I'm pulling out my crystal ball
C 
Dsus4 
G 
From my singer's bag of       tricks
And I'll tell you for free where we will be
D 
G 
in 2056.
Well, the young ones will be waiting
for their chance to call the shots.
And the old ones will be wondering
D 
how much longer they have got.
Em 
And some will dodge the bullets,
C 
G 
and  some will take the hits.
They'll still be shooting
from the shadows in
D 
2056.
G 
Dsus4 
G 
And some will run like lemmings to
Am 
Dsus4 
their four score years and      ten
G 
Gsus4 
G 
And some will soar like     seagull
Gsus4 
G 
s        and  take the dump on them
D 
Em 
There'll be a list of stuff that's
C 
perfect and a list of stuff to fix
G 
And they still won't know
D 
the difference in 2056
G 
You see they'll have lots of
brand new gadgets
They'll have brand new
Gsus4 
G 
stuff to wear
Gsus4 
G 
Gsus4 
Brand new ways
G 
to spend their breath
Gsus4 
G 
D 
And cooler fads to share
Em 
But they'll bear the skin of
Adam
C 
G 
And it'll always be that way
In 2056, just like it is today
D 
Em 
And I'll be dead or 98,
C 
but by then I won't be in the mix
G 
And there'll be a million brand
D 
new songs to sing by 2056
