F#m7 Em Dmaj7/A Bsus2
[Verse 1]
F#m7
Thought I was a spaceman
Em
Digging out my heart
Dmaj7/A
In some distant sand dunes
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
In a car park
F#m7
'Cause the desert had encroached upon
Em
The places where we lived
Dmaj7/A
People like me fight
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
To keep the demons in
F#m7
But we never succeeded
Em Dmaj7/A
We never succeeded
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
In fact, we failed
[Verse 2]
F#m7
Thought I was a spaceman
Em
Digging out my heart
Dmaj7/A
In some distant sand dune
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
In a car park
F#m7
By the empty harbour
Em
Where the junk boat phantoms float
Dmaj7/A
The fight for Happy Valley
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
Sadly, the line broke
[Verse 3]
F#m7
Thought I found my black box
Em
Washed up on the shore
Dmaj7/A
On outlying islands
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
Past the land fall
F#m7
Thought I'd thought I'd found it
Em
But that was not true at all
Dmaj7/A
I'd walked into a bar
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
Raised hell
[Verse 4]
F#m7
Cut the chasm out me
Em
Always and always the same
Dmaj7/A
Put the ghost in writing
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
And let it be (You again)
F#m7
Thought I was a spaceman
Em
Digging out my heart
Dmaj7/A
In some distant sand dune
Dmaj7/A Bsus2
In Hyde Park
