Prechorus 1:

NOTE: Playing prechorus on chords it's not really the best idea, 
I made it only for orientation, so better do it on one string:

    Cm  Eb  Cm  Bb
The impulse is pure;
               Cm  Eb  Cm  Bb
Sometimes our circuits get shorted
   Cm       Eb       Bb   Cm Eb Cm Bb
By external interference.
                    Cm Eb Cm Bb
Signals get crossed
                         Cm Eb Cm
And the balance distorted
Bb   Cm     Bb   Ab
By internal incoherence.

Chorus 1:

Cm                     Bb
A tired mind become a shape shifter,
                 Ab
Everybody need a mood lifter,
Cm              Bb         Ab
Everybody need reverse polarity.
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form.
Everybody got to elevate from the norm.

Cm Ab Cm

Verse 2:

An ounce of perception,
A pound of obscure.
Process information at half speed.
Pause, rewind, replay,
Warm memory chip,
Random sample, hold the one you need.

[Bridge]

Prechorus 2:

Leave out the fiction,
The fact is, this friction
Will only be won by persistence.
Leave out conditions,
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence.

Chorus 2:

A tired mind become a shape shifter,
Everybody need a soft filter,
Everybody need reverse polarity.
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form.
Everybody got to elevate from the norm...

Outro:

Cm Ab Bb Ab

Cm             Bb        Ab 
Everybody got mixed feelings
Everybody got mixed feelings
Everybody got to elevate from the norm - [repeat till fade]

[NOTE - I know there are some other words instead 'elevate' 
in this last repeating verse but I don't have time to find them ;P
