[Verse 1]
Am7
Thought I was a spaceman

Digging out my heart
Fmaj7/C
In some distant sand dunes
Fmaj7/C Dsus2
In a car park
Am7
'Cause the desert had encroached upon
Gm
The places where we lived
Fmaj7/C
People like me fight
Fmaj7/C Dsus2
To keep the demons in

But we never succeeded

We never succeeded

In fact, we failed

Thought I found my black box
Gm
Washed up on the shore
Fmaj7/C
On outlying islands

Past the land fall

Thought I'd thought I'd found it

But that was not true at all

I'd walked into a bar
Fmaj7/C Dsus2
Raised hell

Cut the chasm out me

Always and always the same
