Intro: (Fadd9  C-C/Bb Am  Am - Bb/D) x2    (can play Fadd9 for F throughout)

 F                     C  Am  F                 C  Am
You're gonna miss the word,  everyone left the world
 F                 C  Am    F              C    Am
Take what you can carry,  find a road and follow

 F                         C     Am                      F       C             Am
Of course I'm supposed to work, I,  come from the hills, I, can find any food I 
                F                   C    Am               F C                Am
Try to protect I, cause I like to laugh I, look at the sky,  look in your eye

Am         G    -  F   -   C             G/B    Am         G    -  F  -    C         G/B
All I feel is transition, when do we get home?  all I feel is transition, now to be alone
        Am                Bb          Am  Am - Bb/D    F  C  Am
With a clear eye, with a clouded mind

 F                     C   Am                      F C             Am
You're gonna miss the word,  I come from the fen I,  I left the den
F                   C    Am                      F  C             Am
The wind blows no good it, tells of a change that, might rearrange
F                   C         Am G     -       F   C  G
You can't see the ground it's,   not where it was


Am         G    -  F   -   C             G/B    Am         G    -  F  -    C         G/B
All I feel is transition, when do we get home?  all I feel is transition, now to be alone
        Am                Bb        
With a clear eye, with a clouded mind

      Dm                        F             C        -           G/B
The stars, are indifferent to astronomy, and all that we think we know
Dm                        F           C         -        G/B
Mars, will salute your autonomy, but he doesn't need to know

Am         G    -  F   -   C             G/B    Am         G    -  F  -    C         G/B
All I feel is transition, when do we get home?  all I feel is transition, now to be alone
        Am                Bb        
With a clear eye, with a clouded mind
Am                G    -   F    -   C                  G/B
No one wants to live this fiction, where didn't we go wrong?
        Am                Bb        
With a clear eye, with a clouded mind

      Dm                        F             C        -           G/B
The stars, are indifferent to astronomy, and all that we think we know
Dm                        F           C         -        G/B
Mars, will salute your autonomy, but he doesn't need to know
      Dm                        F             C        -           G/B
The stars, are indifferent to astronomy, and all that we think we know
Dm                        F           C         -        G/B
Mars, will salute your autonomy, but he doesn't need to know
