Intro
D# A#m C# D#
[Verse 1]
D# A#m
He couldn't see the moons, the suns
C# D#
He couldn't see the stars
D# A#m
He couldn't see the docking lights
C# D#
So he hangs around the bars
C# Fm
Though in the life he left behind
A#m D#
He lived beyond the sky
D# A#m
He's grounded, useless, hopeless
C# D#
For a blind man cannot fly
[Verse 2]
D# A#m
Now the man who flies a starship drive
C# D#
Is a god to other men
D# A#m
No flaws has he that they perceive
C# D#
No faults that they may ken
C# Fm
But should his body fail him
A#m D#
Or his senses let him down
D# A#m
They all ignore his time at war;
C# D#
Alone he stalks the town
[Verse 3]
D# A#m
So the blind man sits and dreams of ships
C# D#
In the foam of another beer
D# A#m
A# pilot sneers; the blind man hears
C# D#
And he sheds a ductless tear
C# Fm
For once he was a soldier
A#m D#
In a war to save his race
D# A#m
'Til laser knives wiped out his eyes
C# D#
And left him half a face
[Verse 4]
D# A#m
Well the star fleet's free with liberty
C# D#
Except in times of war
D# A#m
So comes the day the blind man's bay
C# D#
Rings loud with space no more
C# Fm
The fleet is called, the ships lift out
A#m D#
The battle cry is blown
D# A#m
Left behind to drink his wine
C# D#
The blind man sits alone
[Verse 5]
D# A#m
Well then, suddenly close fire breaks free
C# D#
Among the spaceport bars
D# A#m
Enemy signs behind the lines
C# D#
Destroying home fleet stars
C# Fm
The blind man leaps to safety
A#m D#
As the laser heat burns through
D# A#m
He alone may save his home;
C# D#
He knows what he must do
[Verse 6]
D# A#m
Through the sounds of war that blast him o'er
C# D#
His memory is true
D# A#m
He finds a ship- a shuttle slip
C# D#
abandoned by its crew
C# Fm
He waits until the scanners sound
A#m D#
That battle is above
D# A#m
With a prayer to gods of air
C# D#
He gives the jets a shove
[Verse 7]
D# A#m
They said it was a stroke of luck
C# D#
That shuttle's engines blew
D# A#m
They said it was the hand of god
C# D#
That aimed it straight and true
C# Fm
They said it was the fates of war
A#m D#
That saved their world that day
D# A#m
That downed the rebel leader
C# D#
And so chased his force away
[Verse 8]
D# A#m
Well they never found the blind man
C# D#
In the rubble of the bar
D# A#m
They made a cave, an empty grave
C# D#
For a soldier of the stars
C# Fm
They then forgot the blind man
A#m D#
But I won't forget that night
D# A#m
I was a child alone who saw
C# D#
My father's final flight
D# A#m
He couldn't see the moons, the suns
C# D#
He couldn't see the stars
D# A#m
He couldn't see the docking lights
C# D#
So he hangs around the bars
C# Fm
Though in the life he left behind
A#m D#
He lived beyond the sky
D# A#m
He's grounded, useless, hopeless
C# D#
For a blind man cannot fly
C# D#
No, a blind man . . . cannot fly
