 I can see you run, I can see you hide, Oh your heart is aching
A          F#m           Bm             E
 Lost in a dream of what might have been
A               C#m                  Bm           E
 You're the guide, you're the number one and your knees are shaking
A            F#m         Bm           E E
 Stand and deliver in an endless dream

And a kid on the street just reads and reads and reads and reads
    E
And reads and reads and reads

 Yes you're the best, but you still can't rest
             Am        D           G
You know you know, the carnival is closed
     E                      Am            D                   G
Your streets are lined with ghosts, but a princess don't look back
      E                    Am          D              G
Don't look back don't look round, your vision is your fight

Through long electric nights, when a woman helps you write

Boy, play the pipes till they're old and worn, sing the words till they fall forlorn
                            A  E
Like the pieces of a jigsaw jet


[Chorus]
A                                    D                          E

Boy, shoot a rocket clean out of your brain. No these people ain't the same, you can hear
