A C#m G#m B [Verse 1]
E E E E B It started with a low light, next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed.
C#m B B E And then they took my blood type, they left a strange impression in my head.
E E E B You know that I was hopin', that I could leave this starcrossed world behind.
C#m B B But when they cut me open, I guess I changed my mind. [Pre-Chorus 1]
A B C#m G#m And you know I might have just flown too far
A B C#m G#m from the floor this time, 'cos they're calling me by my name.
A B G#m C#m And they’re zipping white light beams, disregarding bombs and satellites.
B B B B That was the turning point, that was one lonely night. [Chorus 1]
E C#m E A The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad.
A C#m G#m B The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, it's all in your mind." [Verse 2]
E E E E B Well now I'm back at home and, I'm looking forward to this life I live.

C#m B B E You know it's gonna haunt me, so hesitation to this life I give.
E E E B You think you might cross over, you're caught between the devil & the deep blue sea.
C#m B B You better look it over, before you make that leap. [Pre-Chorus 2]
A B C#m G#m And you know I'm fine, but I hear those voices
A B C#m G#m at night sometimes, that justify my claim.
A B G#m C#m And the public don't dwell on my transmission, 'cos it wasn't televised.
B B B B But it was the turning point, oh, what a lonely night! [Chorus 2]
E C#m E A The starmaker says it ain't so bad, the dream-maker's gonna make you mad.
A C#m G#m B The spaceman says, "Everybody look down, it's all in your mind."

C#m C#m C#m C#m [Middle Eight]
C#m C#m C#m C#m My global position systems are vocally addressed.
C#m C#m C#m C#m They say the Nile used to run from East to West.
C#m C#m A B A They say the Nile used to run, from East to West.
G#m C#m B I'm fine, but I hear those voices
