Intro
Dm A# C Gm
Dm A# C A#
Dm
[Verse]
Am
Walking down a lonely road
A#
A ghost city sidewalk scene
C
And I wonder if there's a place
A#
Where they bury all their unborn dreams - oh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F Gm Am
Some castle in the sky
A# Dm
A place that only I can back down to
C A#
And look out for that shining guide ablaze out somewhere
[Chorus 1]
Dm
Waiting for a sign in vain
A#
That's gonna shine away the pain
C
Gonna draw the moonlight down
A#
All is gonna tumble down
Dm
Are you gonna guide me starlight
A#
Guide me starlight
C
Won't you send me a sign?
Dm
[Verse 2]
Am
You're adrift until you strand
A#
Desert island of mundanity
C
You circle round your solitude
A#
Within the walls they call austerity
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F Gm Am
I know maybe it's insane
A# Dm
To dream of what you'll never gain
C A#
Nothing on the line, driven by unsettled certainty
[Chorus 2]
Dm
Waiting for a sign in vain
A#
That's gonna shine away the pain
C
Gonna cite a figment down
A#
Yet I'm gonna stick around
Dm
Are you gonna guide me starlight
A#
Guide me starlight
C Gm
Are you out there, anywhere, at all?
A#
Anywhere at all
[Bridge]
Gm Dm
If only I'd burn out before I'd hit the ground
F
Just like you before they're near me
C
Run out in the clouds forever near me
A# Dm C
I won't even be a foolish memory
Am
Waiting for a sign in vain
F
Orphan star...
G
Shine on me!
[Chorus 3]
Cm
Waiting for a sign in vain
Ab
Gonna shine away the pain
A#
Gonna draw the moonlight down
Ab
All is gonna tumble down
Cm
Are you gonna hear me starlight
Ab
Hear me starlight
A# Fm
Are you out there anywhere at all
[Chorus 1]
Dm
Waiting for a sign in vain
A#
That's gonna shine away the pain
C
Gonna draw the moonlight down
A#
All is gonna tumble down
Dm
Are you gonna guide me starlight
A#
Guide me starlight
C Gm Dm
Are you out there
