Em                   C
I can see me in this empty place
       A             G  Em
Just another lonely face
Em                     C
I can't see me here in outer space
         A                G  Em
It's so hard to leave a trace

        C                   A
And i try and i try and i try
        G               E
But it never comes out right
        C                    A
Yes i try and i try, and i try
       G            E
But i never get it right

Chorus:
Em      B   D  A   C   B    A
It's a minor earth, major sky
Em      B   D  A   C   B    A
It's a minor earth, major sky

I can't see me in this lonely town
Not a friendly face around
Can you hear me when I speak out loud
Hear my voice above the crowd

And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes, I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right

Chorus - x2

And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes, I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right

Chorus - x2
