album : clouds taste metallic
artist : the flaming lips

this is my first submission , enjoy .

C Dm
they never called me

G C
up to the tower .

C Dm
we gave it to them

G C
they had the power .

Am
and power is the thing

C G
that made you take off from me .

C Dm
we trained hard for the mission

G C
all floating over .

C Dm
though we’re in zero gravity

G C
it pulled us closer .

G
( the little interlude between verses )

C Dm
we were once off to the planets

G C
inside our spacesuits .

C Dm
now i’m left here on the landing

G C
the rocket’s flame boost .

Am
and it’s leaving without me

C Bm
and you go off to the stars

B Asus4 A
( transition into 3rd verse , and new key )

D Em
goodbye goodbye look as the clouds burst

A D
they’re growing taller .

D Em
and as your ship leaves in the distance

A D
my world gets smaller .

Bm
and it takes you worlds away

D A
a million light – years from me .

D Em A
( outro with solo over progression )
