*G7  Em7  C7



     G7                                 Em7
Of lights who've faded out before here comes the same
          C7                           G7
When I'm coded from to much of what I can't describe
                                Em7
Kepat at bay in some regard despite what she wrote
            C7                    G7
I've been frozen in a site display where nothing amounts
   D#*      C#*  C D*
To anything

D#*      C#*  C D*   -2x-
D#*      C#*  C

 G7                              Em7
Took a journey back to sometime just to find out
   C7                                 G7
If I could locate another improbable passage way
                          Em7
Penetrate ? rock and the rock echos back
     C7
My thoughts are a gas
                        G7
I'm not going to crash
     D#*      C#*  C D*
Into anyone

D#*      C#*  C D*  -2x-
D#*

    G
And often asked
What do you know
       F
Just what was handed down to me
       D#*
Slip graciously in to the happy homes
  F
Groping ? frequently opposed
        G
?I was high?
Built this champion
F
Out of their own wasted flesh
D#*                         C#*
Is this supposed to do that
   C
Through it all I'll pass
       D#*                    C#*
Cause my thoughts are a gas
 C
My thoughts are a gas
 D#*                   C#*   C   G7
My thoughts are a gas
