Intro: G D G D

Bm             D    C              Em           G  D   G D C
  Stuck in the past,  like drawing rings around Saturn
Bm              D    C            Em        G   D   G 
  The shadow is cast,  but now it follows a pattern

D                   G       Bm            C             Em
  I don't know what that arrangement was, I could never tell
      G   D     G D
  But you could
               G       Bm             C                Em       
  I had hopes, but the hopes all fell leveled with the smell 
     G   D    G D C
  Of new wood
  
Bm             D    C           Em      G  D  G D C
  Stuck in the past,  I plan it only on paper
Bm              D    C          Em        G D  G  
  Guess I'm the last,  a living memory of vapor

D                   G       Bm            C             Em
  I don't know what that arrangement was, I could never tell
       G   D     G D
  Like you could
               G          Bm           C            Em       
  I had hopes, but that's just because hoping was a well 
        G   D     G D  
  Where you stood



  C   Bm       D          G   D     Bm    D G D
I had all this time while you stood dosed
      C Bm     D     C    Em Bm    D G D
Where I almost had a line composed
        C      G           C  G     D      
But the moment passed, the entrance closed


Instr. Bm C Em G D G D


Bm             D    C               Em           G  D  G D C
  Stuck in the past,  where I'll be pulling that lever
Bm              D    C             Em         G D  G 
  It happens so fast   and then it happens forever


D                   G       Bm            C             Em
  I don't know what that arrangement was, I could never tell
                    G       Bm            C             Em
  I don't know what that arrangement was, I could never tell
                    G       Bm            C             Em
  I don't know what that arrangement was, I could never tell
       G   D     G D C
  Like you could

Bm             D    C              Em           G  D   G D  
  Stuck in the past,  just drawing rings around Saturn
