Verse 1:
C#(Break)                    E(break)                     Ab
  Big dipper north of nowhere, Outside the room inside my mind
Eb                          C#                            Ab
  I look forward to tomorrow, But can I leave yesterday behind
Bbm Ab F#         Fm             F#        Fm                F#      Fm
How it feels so strange, To have grown and changed, Now it's not the same


Chorus 1:
Ab  Eb             C#
Coz time slips and slides into another place
    Eb        C#
and try as we might to understand each other
B                               E                            Ebm
Doesn't really matter where you are, It always seems so very far
                 C#                                           Eb(break)
It's like you're lightyears away, you're lightyears away from me


Verse 2: (do Verse 1 Chords)
Little dipper south of somewhere, it looks much closer than it really is
I held it in my hands, But you're forever out of reach
Far as the eye can see, Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me


Chorus 2:
    Eb        C#
But ohh, if I only had a rocketship
   Eb         C#
to fly I'd be right there in a minute
       B                               E                             Ebm
But it doesn't really matter where you are, however near is still so far
          C#                                                  Eb
It's like you're lightyears away, you're lightyears away from me, ohhh...


Adlib: C#-C#m-G#---Eb-C#-G#---

           F#      Fm              F#       Fm               F#      Fm
Far as the eye can see, nothing is meant to be, doesn't mean much to me


(Repeat Chorus 1)

Outro:
Bbm                         C#                            Ab(hold)
  I look forward to tomorrow, But can I leave yesterday behind
