I listen to the sound of the city
Em
It fills the air and I'll do eight I see
D
I've a feeling I've been here before
Em
Sometimes they can be a crushing bore
Em
You're always standing in my road
Em
I want that we may be at something soon
D
Yes I felt like a ghost today
Em
I don't remember that I felt that way

Every time a light comes in
Em7/G
I thought I was dropped on the edge of it
D
In the desert when they draw the day
Em7/G Em7
If you never see another living so precise
Em7/G
I can't think of any words to say
Em7/G
But I've told about my fantasy anyway

If you wake and saw into my head

I think that you'd have done the things I should have said
