Imagine open science, open in all ways,
C Cmaj7 F C Cmaj7 F
Without restrictions, no patents and no NDAs,
F Am/E d7 G G7
Imagine all researchers talking about things they know

Imagine information flowing from A to B,

F Am/E d7 G d7 G7

I hope some day you will join us and research will be just fun
C Cmaj7 F C Cmaj7 F
Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can,
C Cmaj7 F C Cmaj7 F
No copyright on papers, all in public domain
F Am/E d7 G G7
Imagine all programmers, programming open source
