And I combed my hair, lit was just right, and commanded the night brigade.
[F] I was [C] open to pain [G] and crushed [C] by the [F] rain, and I [C] walked on a crooked crutch.
[F] I strolled [C] all alone [G] to a far [C] off zone, [F] came [Am] out [G] with my [C] soul [F] [C] untouched.
[Dm] [G] I hid in the cloud and laughed with the crowd but [F] when they said sit down I [Am] stood up.
[Dm] .
Ooooo [F] [Em] growing [Dm] .
[C] up.

[F] I had a jukebox [C] graduate boy first mate, she [F] couldn't sail but she [C] sure could slam.
And I [F] pushed me [C] 52 [G] and bombed them [C] with the blues.
[F] When my gear [C] set stubborn [G] on [C] standing.

Never once gave a fuck to [F] landing.

took month-long vacations in the stratosphere.
And you know it's really hard to hold your breath.
Swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared.
I was a cosmic kid in full costume dress.
[F] But my feet [C] they finally [G] took wear and [C] tear.
But I [F] got me a nice [C] little place [G] in the stars.
[C] [F] And I swear I [C] found the key to [G] the [C] universe.
In the engine of an old Ford [F] car.
[C] [F] [G] I hid in the mother rest of the crowd.
When [F] they said pull down [Am] I pulled up.
