[Verse 1]
A#m7
Thought I was a spaceman
G#m
Digging out my heart
F#maj7/C#
In some distant sand dunes
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
In a car park
A#m7
'Cause the desert had encroached upon
G#m
The places where we lived
F#maj7/C#
People like me fight
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
To keep the demons in
A#m7
But we never succeeded
G#m F#maj7/C#
We never succeeded
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
In fact, we failed

Digging out my heart
F#maj7/C#
In some distant sand dune

In a car park

By the empty harbour
G#m
Where the junk boat phantoms float
F#maj7/C#
The fight for Happy Valley
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
Sadly, the line broke
[Verse 3]
A#m7
Thought I found my black box
G#m
Washed up on the shore
F#maj7/C#
On outlying islands
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
Past the land fall
A#m7
Thought I'd thought I'd found it
G#m
But that was not true at all
F#maj7/C#
I'd walked into a bar
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
Raised hell
[Verse 4]
A#m7
Cut the chasm out me
G#m
Always and always the same
F#maj7/C#
Put the ghost in writing
F#maj7/C# D#sus2
And let it be (You again)
