[Verse 1]
E B
Nothing's ever fair
G#m F#
I must keep moving 'til I get there
[Pre-Chorus]
E
Time passing by like the speed of a rocket
B
The man on the moon still lives in my pocket
G#m F#
You ever feel that life's slipping out of your hands?
E
I'm just a man living in a machine
B
Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams
G#m F#
Do you ever feel that you're never really good enough?
[Chorus]
E
Stuck on a runway
B
I can get lifted
G#m
Stars in the sky that I just can't find
F#
Never getting home tonight
E
Stuck on a runway
B
I can get lifted
G#m
Sorry, the pilot's lost his mind
F#
Never getting home tonight
[Post-Chorus]
E
Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams
B
(Never getting home tonight)
G#m
I'm just a man living in a machine
F#
Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams
[Verse 2]
E B
Somewhere in the sun
G#m F#
I keep on waiting for my ship to come
[Pre-Chorus]
E
Time passing by like the speed of a rocket
B
The man on the moon still lives in my pocket
G#m F#
You ever feel that life's slipping out of your hands?
E
I'm just a man living in a machine
B
Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams
G#m F#
Do you ever feel that you're never really good enough?
[Chorus]
E
Stuck on a runway
B
I can get lifted
G#m
Stars in the sky that I just can't find
F#
Never getting home tonight
E
Stuck on a runway
B
I can get lifted
G#m
Sorry, the pilot's lost his mind
F# G#m F# E
Never getting home tonight
[Post-Chorus]
B
Never getting home tonight
G#m
(Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams)
F#
Never getting home tonight
E
(I'm just a man living in a machine
B
Trying to make a dollar out of 15 dreams)
[Bridge]
E B
Let me excel

I keep on climbing 'til I get well
[Pre-Chorus]
