Flying over the black town
Forces call to me to get right down
Work it out again to catch my trout
Throw it in these effects unpacked

No one else could penetrate time

/Riff 1/ - (played once)

/Riff 1 - first part/ (played twice)
Learn you to move the grass above all time
Past moving up and all futures go back

/Riff 1 - second part/ (played twice)
Look at where you are you find no trace of time
Going in around in the only places you're free

/Riff 1/
Low birds, you were the full taste to this from downtown

You can always have this back

/Riff 2/
It's so hard to make joy so sad

/Riff 1 - second part without its last note/
You can always just stand back

Note: I like this song very much but I haven't found a good tab for this song so I was
it unbidden in this way. This is my first tab, hope you like it. If it's not correct or
found some mistakes please write to me (dana4@freemail.hu). I think tuning is better 
your tuner calibrated on 438Hz but you can play it in standard tuning, of course. Thanks
John.
