Intro:
Ebmaj7  Fmaj7  Esus4

Verse 1:
EbSometimes (x43121@3)you feel so far away,
                                        Ddistanced (xx0232@1)from all the action of the play,
Ebunable (x43121@3)to grasp significance,
                                    Dmarking (xx0232@1)the plot with diffident dismay,
Ebmaj7      Fmaj7  Esus4
stranded at centre stage,
G (320003@1)                     Fmaj7 (1x3210@1)     Gm (355333@1) DDsus4  
scrabbling through your diary for a lost page:
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7  Esus4
unsure of the dream.

Verse 2:
EbKicking (x43121@3)a stone across the beach,
				    Daching (xx0232@1)for love and comfort out of reach;
Ebthe (x43121@3)way ahead seems to be so bleak,
				           Dthere's (xx0232@1)no-one with any friendship left to speak
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7 Esus4
or show any relation
             Gm (355333@1)        Fmaj7 (1x3210@1) Gm (355333@1) DDsus4
between your present and future situations...
Ebmaj7 Fmaj7 Esus4
lost to the dream.
