#1

Tone: G

Intro: G A/G G G7M Em7 D

G A/G G G7M
"Into the distance, a ribbon of black"
Em7 D
Stretched to the point of no turning back
G A/G G G7M
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Em7 D
Standing alone my senses reeled
G A/G G G7M
"A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how"
Em7 D
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

C Em/B Am G
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F C D
"Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I"

G A/G G G7M

G A/G G G7M
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Em7 D
"Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything"
G A/G G G7M
No navigator to guide my way home
Em7 D
"Unladened, empty and turned to stone"

C Em/B Am G
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
F C
Condition grounded but determined to try
Em/B Am G
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
"Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I"

F Am7 D9 D

G
"Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,"
Em7
"My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,"
G
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Em7
Out of the corner of my watering eye
G
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Em7
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

C Em/B Am G
There's no sensation to compare with this
F C
"Suspended animation, a state of bliss"
Em/B Am G
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
F C D
"Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I"

G A/G G G7M Em7 D
