A# D# I've been running around in circles A# D# Pretending to be myself A# D# Why would somebody do this on purpose A# D# When they could do something else? Gm7 F/A D# Drowning out the morning birds A# F D# With the same three songs over and over A# F D# I wish I wrote it, but I didn't so I learn the words A# F D# Hum along 'til the feeling's gone forever Chorus: D# A# F Took a tour to see the stars D# But they weren't out tonight D# A# F So I wished hard on a Chinese satellite D# A# F I want to believe D# Gm A#/D Instead I look at the sky and I feel nothing D# A# F You know I hate to be alone D# I want to be wrong You were screamin' at the Evangelicals They were screamin' right back from what I remember When you said I will never be your vegetable Because I think when you're gone, it's forever But you know I'd stand on the corner Embarrassed with a picket sign If it meant I would see you when I die Chorus: Sometimes, when I can't sleep It's just a matter of time before I'm hearing things Swore I could feel you through the walls But that's impossible I want to believe That if I go outside I'll see a tractor beam Coming to take me to where I'm from I want to go home You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA A# D D# F Gm Gm7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
