Intro

---- x2

Verse 1

Welcome back to earth my fine young lucky southern son

 How was your trip to outer-space it sure did look like fun

You seem somewhat puzzled like you just can't readjust

 You're covered in the battle scars and pitted up with rust

Bridge 1

 Your mom and dad have missed you and I'm sure your friends agree

 There's no substitute for solitude and anonymity

Chorus

I'm just coming down from this cloudy head

 World was spinnin' around and the voices echo things that she said

I'm just coming down from this starry sky

 I'm just glad to be here and most of all I'm thankful I'm alive

Verse 1

I hear the whispers in the crowd from jealous tongues

Shadows from the shameful light my ego's come undone

Bridge 2

 Your dignity has missed you and I'm sure your soul agrees

 This fire sale has cost you your peace and sanity

Repeat Chorus

Bridge 3

The path that I must take will lead me to despair

When I'm a million miles away will no one even care

Solo over chorus chords

Repeat Chorus (x2)
