[Verse 1]
G A9+7 G G/F#
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
Stretched to the point of no turning back
G A9+7 G G/F#
A flight of fancy On a windswept field
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
Standing alone my senses reel
G A9+7 G G/F#
A fatal attraction Is holding me fast. How
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
can I escape this irresistible grasp?

[Chorus]

Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I.
G A9+7 G G/F# Em (h/o) Em D/F#

[Verse 2]
G A9+7 G G/F#
Ice is forming, On the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
G A9+7 G G/F#
No navigator, To find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stone.

[Chorus]

A soul in tension, that’s learning to fly
ondition grounded, but de-termined to try
Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

[Break]
G A9+7 G G/F# Em (h/o) Em D/F# 2x

[Verse 3]
ove the planet on a wing and a prayer
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air
cross the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
dream unthreatened by the morning light;
ould blow this soul right through the roof of the night

[Chorus]

There’s no sensation to com-pare with this
Sus-pended animation, a state of bliss.
Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I

[Outro]
G A9+7 G G/F# Em (h/o) Em (h/o) D/F#
(5x while fading)
