There’s no top
This complex treatise on chaos theory started life on guitar and the lyrics just grew of their own volition... I stand by the opening couplet!
smoky jazz with Steve Franks on lead and Jon Garvey providing the wonderful sax as ever.

There’s no top
2x (E9 A11as intro)
E9 A11
If you look too hard you just may not see
E9 Bm7
What’s going on in the periphery
E9 A11
You need to open up and absorb it all
Gº B7
To see the way the dice will fall
You may not find what you’re looking for
Or reach an unexpected pass
Don’t get resigned to what’s gone before
This change will never be your last
Em B7 Em
This change will never be your last
Am Emm
If beauty’s what you’re searching for
B Em
You’ll find it all around
Am Emm
And if you manage to retain that awe
Aº B
The feeling’s more profound
You find the desert in a grain of sand
An ocean in a water drop
Fractal repetition helps you understand
That there’s no bottom, there’s no top
That there’s no bottom, there’s no top
Vvcv as instrumental
Repeat chorus & last verse
Fade out as extended intro
featuring Jon Garvey on Saxophone and Steve Franks on Guitar
