Miles and miles away

And night after night who treats you right

Who's on the radio?

Something keeps him drifting miles and miles away

Searching for the songs to play
D#m D#m (D bass) C# G#
Then you listen to the music and you'd like to sing along

and take 'em home

But no one seems to know
D#m G#
What it is that makes him go
D#m D#m (D bass) C# G#
Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
C# C# (C bass) A#
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
D#m D#m (D bass) C# G#
But he never seems to notice he's just got to find another place
A#
to play
