[Verse 1]G A9+7 G G/F#
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
Stretched to the point of no turning back
G A9+7 G G/F#
A flight of fancy On a windswept field
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
Standing alone my senses reel.
G A9+7 G G/F#
A fatal attraction Is holding me fast. How
Em (h/o) Em D/F#
can I escape this irresistible grasp?
[Chorus]C/G Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I.
G A9+7 G G/F# Em (h/o) Em D/F#
[Verse 2]G A9+7 G G/F#
Ice is forming, On the tips of my wings
Em D/F#
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
G A9+7 G G/F#
No navigator, To find my way home
Em D/F#
Unladen, empty and turned to stone.
[Chorus]C/G Am
A soul in tension, that's learning to fly
F C
Condition grounded, but de-termined to try
C/G Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I
G A9+7 G G/F# Em (h/o) Em D/F# 2x
[Verse 3]G
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer
Em
My grubby halo, a vapor 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
[Chorus]C/G Am
There's no sensation to com-pare with this
F C D
Sus–pended animation, a state of bliss.
C/G Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
F C D
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I
