[C] Meanwhile back in the [C] year one _
[Eb] When you belonged to [C] no one
_ [Eb] You didn't stand a [C] chance, son
_ _ [F] If your pants were [F] undone
_ _ Cause you were brave for humanity
_ And souls to society
One day [G] you'll wake up _ [Bb] in the present day
[Eb] A million _ generations [Bbm] removed from expectations
[G] Of being who [Bb] you really want [C] to be
_ _ [F] Skating away, _ skating away _ _
Skating away [G] on the thin [Eb] ice of a new day
_ [Bb] _ _
Hey, [G] hey, hey, hey
So _ [Bb]
as you push off from the [F] shore
Won't you turn your head once [Cm] more
And make your peace [G] with everyone
For _ [Bb] _
those who choose to [F] stay
Will live just one more [C] day
To do the things they [G] should have done
_ [Bb] And as you cross the wilderness
[C] Spending in your emptiness
You feel [F] you have to pray
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] Looking for a sign that [Eb] the universal mind
[F] Has written you [Bb] into the passion [C] play
_ _ [G] _ Skating away, skating away
_ Skating away on the thin ice [Eb] of a new _ [Bb] day _
Hey, [G] hey, hey, hey
_ [Bb] And as you cross the circle [F] line
When the ice wall creaks [C] behind _
You're a rabbit [F] on the run
_ _ [Bb] _
And the silver [F] splendors fly
In the corner [C] of your eye
Shining in the setting [F] sun
_ Well [Bb] do you ever get the feeling
That [C] the story's too damn real
And in [F] the presence of chance
_ _ _ _ [Bb] All and everybody's on the stage
[Ab] And [Eb] it seems like you're the only [F] person
[Bb] Sitting in the [C] audience
_ _ _ [F] Skating away, _ [C] skating away
_ Skating away on the thin [Eb] ice of a new day
Hey, hey, hey, [Bb] _
hey
Hey, hey, [F] hey, hey
_ _ Skating away, skating away Skating [Fm] away
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
