Intro: G-D-Em7-Cadd9-D x2

Verse 1: 

Em7             Cadd9               G              D
Welcome back to earth my fine young lucky southern son
    Em7              Cadd9          G                  D
How was your trip to outer-space it sure did look like fun
Em7               Cadd9            G              D
You seem somewhat puzzled like you just can't readjust
       Em7            Cadd9            G              D
You're covered in the battle scars and pitted up with rust


Bridge 1: 

     Cadd9                               D
Your mom and dad have missed you and I'm sure your friends agree
           Cadd9                       D
There's no substitute for solitude and anonymity


Chorus: 

G                   D                     Em7
    I'm just coming down from this cloudy head
                                  Cadd9       D
World was spinnin' around and the voices echo things that she said
G                   D                     Em7
    I'm just coming down from this starry sky
                             Cadd9           D
I'm just glad to be here and most of all I'm thankful I'm alive


Verse 1: 

Em7          Cadd9           G                  D
  I hear the whispers in the crowd from jealous tongues
Em7              Cadd9             G            D
Shadows from the shameful light my ego's come undone


Bridge 2: 

     Cadd9                          D
Your dignity has missed you and I'm sure your soul agrees
     Cadd9                       D
This fire sale has cost you your peace and sanity


Repeat Chorus


Bridge 3:

Am                      Em        G             D
   The path that I must take will lead me to despair
Am                         Em                    D
  When I'm a million miles away will no one even care
