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