[D] It's lonely in the [Bm] universe [D] Sitting looking up [Bm] from planet earth
[D] It's funny how the world goes round Even when it's turned [Bm] upside down
[G] I often think of Michael Collins [D] Sitting in Columbia
[G] I wonder if anyone [D] on earth was ever lonely and
[G] Staring out into the [D] darkness Circling the moon alone
[G] Counting stars a quarter of [A] a million miles from home
[D] Things on earth [Bm] seem commonplace But [D] they look beautiful from [Bm] outer space
On [G] the far side of the moon [D] A minute's quietly ticking by
[G] Looking through old photographs [D] And listening to Patsy [G] Clough
Always hoping for the best [D] But in his heart he fears the [G] worst
Knowing there's a chance that [A] he'll return alone to earth
And when [Em] you see things from [G] a distance [D] Then you see things as [A] they are
Cause [Em] the world looks [G] very different [D] When you see it from [A] that far
I [Em] just wish we [G] didn't have to [D] go so [F#m] far
[A] To see the world [Em] from the start
[G] [D] It's you
[A] And [Em] when you see things [G] from a distance [D] Then you see things as [A] they [Em] are
Cause the world looks [G] very different [D] When you see it from [A] that far
And [Em] I just wish we [G] didn't have to [A] go so far To see the world [D] from the start
