C
A sense of duty was my one intention
      G
And an ugly beauty was my own invention
C
Pride a proud refusal
      G
And i refuse to need your approval
C
Too many seekers too few beacons
G
But through the fog we'll keep on beaming
            F
Through the crying hours of your glitter years
            C
All the living out of your tinsel tears
            F
And the midnight trains i never made
            C
'cos i'd already
G            C            G
Played...the game
C
Everybody's got their own good reason

Spring has sprung and autumns well done so well done
            F
And it's a better thing that we do now
            C
Forgetting everything the whys and hows
            F
While you reminisce about the things you miss
            C
You won't be ready
      G      C
To kiss...goodbye

The earth is a world
            D
The world is a ball
            G
A ball in a game with no rules at all
            C
And just as i wonder
            D
At the beauty of it all
            G
You go and drop it and it breaks and falls

Born under mars with jupiter rising
            C            G
Fallen from stars that lit my horizon
