D
Travelers and wanderers on the open range
D
And open road have been haunted by shapes
D
Of light, and dazzling color dropping down from a sea of stars.

[Verse 1]
G F C
Come hear the tale of a cowboy raised up into the sky
G C D
A sonic revelation, decoded by and by
G
What crashed into the windmill?
F C
The suits took it all away
G
They buried something up on Boot Hill
C D
It was 4 feet tall they say
[Chorus]
Em C G
So few are ever ready to be chosen
Am C/B C D
Some would rather jump than fear the fall
Em D/F# G D C Am
Take a look around the void is closing in
C D G
On the terrifying nature of it all
[Verse 2]
G F C
Is love imagination rendered inside the mind
G C D
Or consciousness projected from another place and time
G F C
So take away the lesson, love loved ones now and here
G C D
Knowing not the season, they all could disappear
[Chorus]
Em C G
So few are ever ready to be chosen
Am C/B C D
Some would rather jump than fear the fall
Em D/F# G D C Am
Take a look around the void is closing in
C D G
On the terrifying nature of it all
[Chorus]
Em C G
So few are ever ready to be chosen
Am C/B C D
Some would rather jump than fear the fall
Em D/F# G D C Am
Take a look around the void is closing in
C D G
On the terrifying nature of it all
