G G/a G Em D//
Into the distance, a ribbon of black Stretched to the point of no turning back
G G/a G Em D//
A flight of fancy on a windswept field Standing alone my senses reeled
G G/a G Em
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

C Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F7 C D G G/a G Em Em D//
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

G Em D//
Ice is forming on the tips my wings Unheeded warnings,I thought I thoughteverything
G G/a G Em
No navigator guide my way home Unladened empty, and turned to stone

C Am F C
A soul in tension, that's learning to fly Condition grounded but determined to try
C Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F7 C D G G/a G Em Em D//
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

G Em
Above the planet, on a wing a prayer, My grubby halo, a vapour trail the empty air,
G Em
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

C Am F7 C
There's no sensation to-compare with this Suspended animation, a state of bliss
C Am
Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
F7 C D G G/a G Em Em D// G/
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
