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