    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

     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
