Getting to the Point

Electric Light Orchestra

from "Balance of Power"

Transcribed by Chris Gaasch

Verse:

G G/B

It's out of control (out of control)

C D

And there's nothing I can do now

G G/B

Out of control (out of control)

C D

Swimming softly through the blue now

Bm Em

And look beyond these walls

Am Bm C

As the meaning starts to dawn

D (Em-D-C)

It's getting to the point

G

Getting to the point.

Verse:

G G/B

It's out of control (nothing I can do)

C D

Like a fire that keeps on burning

G G/B

And nobody knows (what I'm going through)

C D

And the thoughts just keep returning

Bm Em

And all you had to say

Am Bm C

Was that you were gonna stay

D (Em-D-C)

It's getting to the point

D G

It's getting to the point.

Chorus:

G D C

It's getting to the point

G/B(no 3rd)

Where nobody can stop it now

G D C

It's getting to the point

G/B(no 3rd)

Of no return

G D C

And all that I can do

G Em

Is stand and watch it now

Am Bm D

Watch it burn, burn, burn

G D C

It's getting to the point

G/B(no 3rd)

Where reasons are forgotten

G D C

It's getting to the point

G/B(no 3rd)

Where no one knows

G D C

And all that I can do

G Em

Is say I'm sorry

Am Bm C

But that's the way it goes...

D G

Getting to the point.

Verse:

Forever

Is a long, long way

Forever

Takes your breath away

I'd like to talk about it, try to understand

It's getting to the point

Getting to the point.

Chorus:

It's getting to the point

Where nobody can stop it now

It's getting to the point

Of no return

And all that I can do

Is stand and watch it now

Watch it burn, burn, burn

It's getting to the point

Where reasons are forgotten

It's getting to the point

Where no one knows

And all that I can do

Is say I'm sorry

Am Bm D

But that's the way it goes...

Sax Solo in Gmaj Pentatonic (over chorus chords):

Ending:

G Am G/B

It's getting to the point (getting to the point)

C G Am G/B

Getting to the point (getting to the point)

C G Am G/B

It's getting to the point (getting to the point)

C G

Getting to the point.
