(Drum ad-lib)

[G5]Into the distan[Gsus2]ce, a [G5]ribbon of black [GM7]

[Em7]Stretched to the point of no turning back [D/A]

[G5]A flight of fancy[Gsus2] on a [G5]wind-swept field [GM7]

[Em7]Standing alone my senses reeled [D/A]

[G5]A fatal attrac[Gsus2]tion [G5]holding me fast, [GM7]How

[Em7]Can I escape this irresistible grasp? [D/A]

[C]Can't keep my eyes [CM7/B]from the [Am]circling sky

[F]Tongue-tied and twisted, just an [C]earth-bound [D/A]misfit, I

[G5]Ice is forming[Gsus2] on the [G5]tips of my wings [GM7]

[Em7]Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of every[D/A]thing

[G5]No navigat[Gsus2]or to [G5]guide my way home [GM7]

[Em7]Unladened, empty and turned to stone [D]

[C]A soul in tension[CM7/B] that's [Am]learning to fly

[F]Condition grounded but de[C]termined to try

Can't keep my eyes [CM7/B]from the [Am]circling skies

[F]Tongue-tied and twisted just an [C]earth-bound [D/A]misfit, I


[G]Above the planet on a wing and a prayer [GM7]

[Em7]My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air

[G]Across the clouds I see my shadow fly [GM7]

[Em7]Out of the corner of my watering eye

[G]A dream unthreatened by the morning light [GM7]

[Em7]Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night [D]


[C]There's no sensation [CM7/B]to com[Am]pare with this

[F]Suspended animation, a [C]state of bliss

Can't keep my mind [CM7/B]from the [Am]circling sky

[F]Tongue-tied and twisted just an [C]earth-bound [D]misfit, I [G]
