Intro: Em Dsus2/F# G Am (2x)

verse 1 
Em           Dsus2/F#             G            Am 
    The baby won't stop screaming,   there are holes in the ceiling.  
Em            Dsus2/F#         G            Am                  Em 
    We're all running on empty,   all I can think about is leaving. 
             Dsus2/F#    G                Am                   Em 
The lift's beyond repair,    screw faces, head down, take the stairs 
                      Dsus2/F#       G 
And soon I'm gonna be floating away. 
         Am                 C/G 
Do you remember you used to say...

C/G                                 G 
     What'll it be like when we get older?  
          D             Em                Dsus2/F#       C/G 
We can be far away from here, we're going to the moon my dear. 
C/G                             G                 D             Em       Dsus2/F#        
     I see the spaceman over my shoulder, wave to earth and disappear. 
 G        Am 
Floating away. 
Em  Dsus2/F#  G        Am 
             Floating away. 

verse 2 
Em          Dsus2/F#        G            Am 
   I got a job in a kitchen,  till I got sick of their bitching.  
Em          Dsus2/F#           G            Am          Em 
   Future seemed like fiction.  I'm on an intergalactic mission 
                      Dsus2/F#       G                              Am                    Em 
but back on earth the time ticked on.  I looked around and wondered where had my spaceman gone? 
               Dsus2/F#              G                          Am          
Like all those promises of childhood,  if I could find a way to keep them like I should, you know I would, 
                                      C/G 
Instead of floating away every time I could.

C/G                                 G 
     What'll it be like when we get older?  
          D             Em                Dsus2/F#       C/G 
We can be far away from here, we're going to the moon my dear. 
C/G                             G                 D             Em   
     I see the spaceman over my shoulder, wave to earth and disappear. 
                Dsus2/F#     C/G 
I can't breathe at this atmosphere. 
                            G                 B 
Is it just me or did it get colder? We can be far away from...

verse 3 
Em          Dsus2/F#               G        Am 
   The baby stopped it's screaming,   am I awake or dreaming? 
Em             Dsus2/F#          G                        Am 
   The time is different up here   and even though you're gone I feel you near. 
Em            Dsus2/F#        G                  Am                  Em 
   And so for what it's worth,   there's nothing left for me down on earth. 
              Dsus2/F#         G            Am                 C/G 
I didn't even notice you went away, but I remember you used to say... 

Final Chorus 
                               G 
What'll it be like when we get older?  
          D             Em                Dsus2/F#       C/G 
We can be far away from here, we're going to the moon my dear. 
C/G                             G                 D              C/G 
     I see the spaceman over my shoulder, wave to earth and disappear, 
C/G                                          G               D                 Em 
     If I could have one more chance to just hold her, maybe I could face this fear,  
                Dsus2/F#     C/G 
I can't breathe at this atmosphere. 
C/G                              G 
     And is it just me or did it get colder?  
       D                 B                                                              Em  Dsus2/F# 
Lying alone it's all so clear, and from up here, I love how tiny down there everything appears.  

 G         Am  Em Dsus2/F# 
Floating away. 
 G         Am  Em Dsus2/F# 
Floating away. 
 G         Am  Em Dsus2/F# 
Floating away. 
 G         Am  Em 
Floating away...
