Shayla worked in a factory.
C# F#
She wasn't history.
C#
She's just a number.
C# F#
One day she gets her
C# F# C# F# C#
final pay and she goes far away.

Green trees call to me.
C# F# C#
I am free but life is so cheap.
C# F# C# F#
Scenery is still outside of me.
C# F# C#
All alone, trapped by its beauty.

Shayla turned to run away, to
C#
leave in peace and end her stay.
F# G#
Years of fear were in her way.
C#
Lost in space and down she came.
F# D#m C# x2
C# F# C# F# C# F#
Suddenly some subtle entity, some cosmic energy,
C#
brushed her like shadows.
C# F# C# F#
Down here we stop to wonder.
C# F#
Cars on the freeway.
C#
Bright lights and thunder.
