Verse:
AFixated on a color / GI tried I not to move
AAnd though the room was spinning / GI never felt confused
BmI knew of my shortcomings / tAhe day it made the news
BmFrom the balcony of my hotel / GAod gave the salute

Repeat Intro/Solo
Verse
AI was followed by a spaceship / GI was taken by surprise
AAware that you would come back / Gwhen I saw you in the sky
BmAnd I made a reservation / tAo be seated at your side.
BmSew it in my tongue / sAo I can taste the ride
G[Humming]

Verse
AYou bare the atmosphere / aGnd I'll be alive
AReplacing every star that fell / wGhen you tore out the sky
BmAnd you should have given warning / wAhen turning on your side
BmMy eyes get dilated / wAhen you call me in my mind
BmI'll have no one to talk to / iAf I am left behind.
