Intro:
E C#m B7 E

            E         C#m     B7        E
We know the galaxy's full of black holes
              E         C#m      B7       E
We don't know which ones have the pay tolls
      D                A             E   C#m  B7  E
Ooh take a look out, take a look inside

          E        C#m       B7    E
This is whole new kind of illusion
           E        C#m        B7    B7
Based on a brand new kind of confusion
         D              A                E   C#m  B7  E
Built on wise decisions, based on foolish pride
        D              A               E   C#m  B7  E 
And you wonder why you wasted all this time
D              A              E   C#m  B7  E
Ooh trying to find gold in a salt mine

    D                    A
And now you've reach the limit
        C#m         B
But the limit is the sky
    A
Oh straight up one more
D                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time


This is a character assassination
This is a character that needs a vacation
Too soon, too long, too much for one mind

We got to step back and take inventory
You're only seeing one side of the story
And a good story is changing all the time
There is always one more sucker doing fine
One more trucker driving that white line
Delivering nothing to no one everywhere

  D        A
Delivering nothing
   C#m        B
To no one everywhere

    A
Oh straight up one more
D                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time

    D
Oh straight up one more
A                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time

E
It's much easy to give up
It's much hard to get up
    D          A               E   C#m  B7  E
To another day just like yesterday
    D                  A                E   C#m  B7  E
And this time there is no escape this time
    D        A               E   C#m  B7  E
And any explanation would be fine
    D                    A
And now you've reach the limit
        C#m         B
But the limit is the sky

    A
Oh straight up one more
D                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time

    D
Oh straight up one more
A                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time

    A
Oh straight up one more
D                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time

    D
Oh straight up one more
A                    E   C#m  B7  E
Straight up one more time
