G Bm C Em G

[Verse 1]
G
I stand on these two feet
Bm
Forty-eight hours so
C
My steps might move the days
Em              G
To where I'd like to be

        D                    A
The web is thick with lies and cheats
        F#m                  Bm    A
I'm one of them, and you're out of reach


[Verse 2]
G
I wear these ribbons like
Bm
A prisoner, ball and chain
C
A grain in a desert dune
Em             G
Praying to the sun for rain

        D                   A
The air is dry, the stars are true
     F#m          Bm         A
I wonder how I'll change for you

[Bridge]
G       Bm      C       Em  G
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

[Verse 3]
G
I watch on glowing screens
Bm
Scrawling pipes of industry
C
Later we'll strike chords in bars
Em           G
Wonder who's listening

    A    D                    A
The room is dark and I cannot see
      F#m            Bm A
Can only feel what's missing

          D             B  A
The rooms is dark and I cannot see
      F#m            Bm A
Can only feel what's missing
