Tom: B
Introdução:
Em7 B7M E/G#
No cloud, a sleepy calm,
A7+/G# F#m7 B6
Sunbaked earth that's cooled by gentle breeze,
F#m9 B7(13)
And trees with rustling leaves,
E7(9) E7
Only endless days without a care,
Bm Em7
Nothing must be done.
B7M E/G#
Silent as a day can be,
A7+/G# F#m7 B6
Far-off sounds of others on their chosen run
F#m9 B7(13) E7(9)
As they do all those things
E7
they feel give life some meaning,
Bm Em7
Even if they're dull.
D7M C/D G/D
It's time to stop this dreaming,
D7M C/D G/D
must rejoin the real world
D7M C/D G/D
As revealed by orange lights
D7M C/D G/D
and a smoky at - mosphere.
Ebm B
The trees and I are shaken by
Bbm C#
the same wind but whereas
B7M Ebm
The trees will lose their withered leaves,
Bbm G#m7
I just can't seem to let them loose.
Ebm B
And they can't refresh me
Bbm C#
those hot winds of the south.
B7M C#/G#
Oh I feel like an alien,
B7M C#/G#
a stranger in an alien place.
B7M E/G#
Now the light is fading fast,
A7+/G# F#m7 B6
Chances slip away, a time will come to pass
F#m9 B7(13)
When there'll be none,
E7(9) E7
Then addicted to a perfumed poison,
Bm Em7
Betrayed by its aftertaste,
D7M C/D G/D
Oh we shall lose the wonder
D7M C/D G/D
and find nothing in re - turn.
D7M C/D G/D
Many are the substitutes
D7M C/D G/D
but they're powerless on their own.
Ebm B Bbm C#
Beware the fisherman who's casting out his line
B7M Ebm
Into a dried up river bed,
Bbm G#m7
But don't try to tell him 'cos he won't believe you.
Ebm B Bbm C#
Throw some bread to the ducks instead, it's easier that way.
B7M Ebm
I feel like an alien,
Bbm G#m7
a stranger in an alien place.
Ebm B Bbm C#
The trees and I are shaken by the same wind but whereas
B7M Ebm
The trees will lose their withered leaves,
Bbm G#m7
I just can't seem to let them loose.
Ebm B Bbm C#
And they can't refresh me those hot winds of the south.
B7M Ebm
I feel like an alien,
Bbm G#m7
a stranger in an alien place.
