[Verse 1]
Cm7
Thought I was a spaceman
A#m
Digging out my heart
G#maj7/D#
In some distant sand dunes
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
In a car park
Cm7
'Cause the desert had encroached upon
A#m
The places where we lived
G#maj7/D#
People like me fight
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
To keep the demons in
Cm7
But we never succeeded
A#m G#maj7/D#
We never succeeded
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
In fact, we failed
[Verse 2]
Cm7
Thought I was a spaceman
A#m
Digging out my heart
G#maj7/D#
In some distant sand dune
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
In a car park
Cm7
By the empty harbour
A#m
Where the junk boat phantoms float
G#maj7/D#
The fight for Happy Valley
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
Sadly, the line broke
[Verse 3]
Cm7
Thought I found my black box
A#m
Washed up on the shore
G#maj7/D#
On outlying islands
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
Past the land fall
Cm7
Thought I'd thought I'd found it
A#m
But that was not true at all
G#maj7/D#
I'd walked into a bar
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
Raised hell
[Verse 4]
Cm7
Cut the chasm out me
A#m
Always and always the same
G#maj7/D#
Put the ghost in writing
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
And let it be (You again)
Cm7
Thought I was a spaceman
A#m
Digging out my heart
G#maj7/D#
In some distant sand dune
G#maj7/D# Fsus2
In Hyde Park
