Pieces of mind
C   Bb     Ab
See how they ran
C   Bb     Ab
Prizes of sun
C   Bb     Ab
Still to be won
C                         F6
When the life is made of straw
                          G6
Can you tell me what it's for?
                             F
Waves that pound against the door
                                   A6
Leave me at the place of throw it away
A6       G6 A6
Throw it away
A6       G6 A6
Leave it today
Fm
Keep me dancing stop me grasping
Fm
Clouds that turn the dust on touching
Fm                    G       C     G      C    G      C
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

Bb  Ab      F#
So much the same
Bb  Ab      F#
Living in games
Bb  Ab      F#
Pieces of cake
Bb         Ab      F#
Until they break apart
Gm             F                  Am          Dm
They say the plane that comes to pass never rhymes
Gm                F         Am       D
Now it burns on grass too steep to climb

C    Bb     Ab
Best of friends
C          Bb     Ab
Until the flowers end
C           Bb          Ab
Mines have taken their place
C     Bb           Ab
Darkness in their face
C                        F6
Now the golden coach is here
                        G6
Can you cure me of the fear
                         F
Should I move into the clear
                       A6       G6 A6  A6      
A6
Find a time in which I throw it away,  get out today

Fm
Keep me singing stop me clutching
Fm
Rooms that turn to dust on clutching
Fm                   G        C     G     C 
    G      C
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

Bb   Ab    F#
Merry-go-round
Bb       Ab        F#
In a town without sound
Bb  Ab     F#
Wings for hire
Bb         Ab           F#
From the church with no choir

Gm           F      Am   Dm
The burning ship is sailing
Gm           F      Am    D    C, 
Ab
It will not leave without me -
A6       G6 A6  A6     G6  A6
throw it away,  get out today

Fm
Keep me singing stop me clutching
Fm
Rooms that turn to dust on leaving
Fm                  G          C    G       C   G      C
Times I'm so far from what I want, what I want, what I want

Bb   Ab    F#
Merry-go-round
Bb       Ab        F#
In a town without sound
Bb  Ab     F#
Wings for hire
Bb         Ab           F#
From the church with no choir

Gm           F      Am   Dm
The burning ship is sailing
Gm           F      Am    D  C, 
Ab
It will not leave without me
Gm              F      Am   Dm
The stalks of fire are failing
Gm     F        Am   Dm
Wont set me... set me free
Gm                F      Am   Dm
There goes the price of drowning
Gm           F    Am       Dm
So I must swim, swim to the end
Gm           F          Am   Dm
Each day the head needs crowning
Gm    F      Am   D
Too much to mend...


Not 100% sure of the middle descending part, but I think the notes are...

Eb Ab C ----- Db F# Bb ----- B E Ab

All of these are played in the basic D chord fingering up on the 9th fret, down to 7th 
down to 5th.  This pattern repeats over and over again at the end of the track as it 
out.  If someone can help me out with this part, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks www.jackbruce.com
