[Intro] G Em
G
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Em
Stretched to the point of no turning back
G
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Em
Standing alone my senses reeled
G
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
Em
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
C Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Solo] G Em
G
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Em
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
G
No navigator to find my way home
Em
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
C Am
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
F C
Condition grounded but determined to try
Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Solo] Am D
G
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
Em
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
G
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Em
Out of the corner of my watering eye
G
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Em
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
C Am
There's no sensation to compare with this
F C
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Am
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
F C D G
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Final] Em G
