[Verse 1]
Bm
No one gave you the tools to make a real life
F E Bm
And they delivered most of the parts, but you couldn't get it right
Bm
And if your mind is blind to the walls you made in the past
F E Bm
And if the boredom of trivial roads has led to a crash
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
Somewhere up above the clouds, among a million prayers
Bm A D G
Flies a little hope of mine, if someone out there cares
Bm A D G
But back on Earth, I see it here, it shines its endless light
Bm A D G Bm
And all I got is empty space, a burning star, a burning star of light
[Verse 2]
Bm
And there are dreams on Earth, you need three lives to fulfill
F E Bm
And there are lives you live ’til the end by standing still
Bm
And we've got too many lives at either end of the night
F E Bm
And we've got plenty of lives cut short by what we carry inside
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
Somewhere up above the clouds, among a million prayers
Bm A D G
Flies a little hope of mine, if someone out there cares
Bm A D G
But back on Earth, I see it here, it shines its endless light
Bm A D G
And all I got is empty space, a burning star, a burning star
G
F# burning star of light

[Alternative Chorus]
Bm G
Tell me something I don’t know, and maybe I've lived too long
Bm A D G
I've got a bad case of I-told-you-so, and it's hard to hold my tongue
Bm A D G
But back on Earth, I see it here, it shines its endless light
Bm A D G
And all I got is empty space, a burning star, a burning star
G Bm
F# burning star, a burning star of light
