[Verse 1]
C#m7
Thought I was a spaceman
Bm
Digging out my heart
Amaj7/E
In some distant sand dunes
Amaj7/E F#sus2
In a car park
C#m7
'Cause the desert had encroached upon
Bm
The places where we lived
Amaj7/E
People like me fight
Amaj7/E F#sus2
To keep the demons in
C#m7
But we never succeeded
Bm Amaj7/E
We never succeeded
Amaj7/E F#sus2
In fact, we failed

By the empty harbour

Where the junk boat phantoms float

The fight for Happy Valley

Sadly, the line broke
[Verse 3]
C#m7
Thought I found my black box
Bm
Washed up on the shore
Amaj7/E
On outlying islands
Amaj7/E F#sus2
Past the land fall
C#m7
Thought I'd thought I'd found it
Bm
But that was not true at all
Amaj7/E
I'd walked into a bar
Amaj7/E F#sus2
Raised hell
[Verse 4]

Cut the chasm out me
Bm
Always and always the same
Amaj7/E
Put the ghost in writing
Amaj7/E F#sus2
And let it be (You again)
