D
[Verse 1]
D Bm
Stars, Soft whispers by a fire, Two lovers talking endlessly
G D
The desires and hopes Of adolescent innocence
D Bm
I've seen it all, Yes I recall, Such pure and precious memories
G D G
Dreaming of the things That can never came to be
[Bridge]
G Bm A
Oh how I wish that I could be As content as the next boy
D
Downing his bitter, Discussing the snooker
[Chorus]
Bb C
I'm light years away The speed of life in this place
A
I just feel light years away
[Refrain]
C B Bb A
Robotically I hear the words, All you see is all you are
C B Bb
Fodder for the factory If you can find one
A
There's your destiny In the ring-room
A
Is your destiny In the ring-room?
[Verse 2]
D Bm
So, I watch the others grow, I must admire such confidence
G D
Coping with the things I'll always sing about
Bm
So secure, So very sure, Or is it reflectory?
G D G
Can they be as happy As they seem to be?
[Bridge]
G Bm A
Oh how I wish that I could be As content as the next girl
D
Surrounded by children, Rushing the ironing
[Chorus]
Bb C
I'm light years away The speed of life in this place
A
I just feel light years away
[Refrain]
C B Bb A
Teacher's words return to me, All life's rules Carved in stone
C B Bb
All you see is all you are, Be thankful you're here today
A
Not last century
C B Bb A
Constantly the words return, All you see is all you are
C B Bb
Fodder for society, But sadly
A
There's no sanctuary In the tap-room
A
There's no sanctuary In the pool-room
A
There's no sanctuary In the bed-room

C
(Is what you are, Is what you are, ...)

Aaaah ...

What you see Is what you are
C A
What you see Is what you are
C A
What you see Is what you are
C A
What you see Is what you are ...
