Key : C
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C | Am | Em | G 
C | Am 
Em

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G     C
 In a far and distant galaxy
  Am
Inside my telescope I see
  Em
A pair of eyes peer back at me
   G
He walks and talks and looks like me
C
Sits around inside his house
     Am
From room to room, he moves about
Em
Fills his life with pointless things
    G                        C
And wonders how it all turns out

[Pre-Chorus]
---------------------
        Am
Dododododo
        Em
Dododododo
     G
It's safe to say that

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C
I don't think you understand
Em                  Dm
  There's nowhere left to turn
      G
The walls keep breaking
C
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Em              Dm                 G
  Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted
Don't waste it

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C Am Em G  C
         Afraid of what the truth might bring
     Am
He locks his doors and never leaves
Em
Desperately searching for signs
    G
Too terrified to find a thing
   C
He battens all the hatches down
      Am
And wonders why he hears no sounds
Em
Frantically searching his dreams
   G                         C
He wonders what it's all about



[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
C
I don't think you understand
Em                  Dm
  There's nowhere left to turn
      G
The walls keep breaking
C
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Em              Dm                 G
  Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted

[Solo]
---------------------
C  | Em    | C  | F | G | C | Em | C | F | G 
Em | Fmaj7 | Em | G 

[Bridge]
---------------------
C
Here in my mind, losing my friends
Em
Fall on my face, do it again
    Dm
You say, "How do you do?"
G
 Man, how 'bout you?
Man, how 'bout you?
C
 To be free, to be sold
Em
  To be killed, to be safe
Dm
  In my head, I'm alone
G
 I'm not dead, I'm ashamed
C                               Em
 Just like you, I've been trying  to escape
            Dm
In my bones,  I feel cold
             G
I give thanks to the Lord
         C
Industry, in the street
          Em
Let me go,  let me be
            Dm
I don't need  to be here
          G
I'm alone, can't you see?
Can't you see?

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
C
I don't think you understand
Em                  Dm
  There's nowhere left to turn
        G
These walls keep breaking
C
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Em              Dm                 G
  Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted
Don't waste it.
