DHuge orange flying boat Drises off a lake G6Thousand year old petroglyphs G6doing a double take Pointing a Dfinger at eternity D I'm G6sitting in the middle of this G6ecstasy D D G6 G6 DYoung men marching, helmets Dshining in the sun G6Polished and precise like the G6brain behind the gun (Dshould be!) They got me Dthinking 'bout eternity Some kinda G6ecstasy got a G6hold on me D D G6 G6

DFreighters on the nod on the Dsurface of the bay G6One of these days they're gonna G6sail away D Gonna Dsail into eternity Some kinda G6ecstasy got a G6hold on me D D G6 G6
