F/G F/G F/G F/G

I lay my head_ On the railroad track_ Stare at the sky_ All painted up_

D G

Your train is gone, won't be comin' back

(CHORUS)

D C G - C A

See the constellation, ride across the sky

G D C A G D C G

No cigar no lady on his arm, just a guy made of dots and lines

G D C G

Just a guy made of dots and lines

Two years ago_ Moved from my town_ I was looking up_ Past the city lights_

But the city lights got in my way

(CHORUS)

(For this verse, there is no guitar, the base is playing F and G in the same

rythm as the chords in the other verses)

I found my mind_ On the ground below_ I was looking up_ It was looking back_

I was in the sky all dressed in black

(CHORUS:Which is extended with...)

G D C - F

Just a guy made of dots_ and_ lines_

(Some improv here, then play the riff over this)

Can you hear what I see in the sky?

At the end, there's something going on with a G chord. Some bending and

stuff. listen to the song and play with it.
