[Verse]

Walking down a lonely road
Eb
D ghost city sidewalk scene

And I wonder if there's a place

Where they bury all their unborn dreams - oh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A# Cm Dm
Some castle in the sky
Eb Gm
D place that only I can back down to
F Eb
And look out for that shining guide ablaze out somewhere
[Chorus 1]
Gm
Waiting for a sign in vain
Eb
That's gonna shine away the pain
F
Gonna draw the moonlight down
Eb
All is gonna tumble down
Gm
Are you gonna guide me starlight
Eb
Guide me starlight
F
Won't you send me a sign?
Gm

You circle round your solitude

Within the walls they call austerity
[Pre-Chorus 2]

I know maybe it's insane

To dream of what you'll never gain
F Eb
Nothing on the line, driven by unsettled certainty
[Chorus 2]
Gm
Waiting for a sign in vain

That's gonna shine away the pain

Gonna cite a figment down

Yet I'm gonna stick around

Guide me starlight

Orphan star...
