Am        F         C
I want to believe in time travel
             Am        F            C
that one day I?ll come back for you.
         Am            F        Am   G
find you in the campus library aisles and I?d say  
Am     F       C
Oh my ancient Mars. 

          Am               F               C
when the rusty rocks were covered in groves
         Am              F             C
and the pyramids foretold acidic snows
         Am               F           Am      G
all was still breathing like my hands on your toes and I said
Am      F       C
Oh my ancient Mars

          Am            F        C
Several billion golden years ago
          Am            F                C
I lost a planet that I loved to the cold
       Am               F         Am   G
civilization blooms and then it erodes. And that?s it
Am      F      C
Oh my ancient Mars.
