Big dipper north of nowhere, Outside the room inside my mind

Chorus 1:
G# Eb C#
Coz time slips and slides into another place
Eb C#

Doesn't really matter where you are, It always seems so very far
C# Eb(break)
It's like you're lightyears away, you're lightyears away from me
Verse 2: (do Verse 1 Chords)
Little dipper south of somewhere, it looks much closer than it really is
I held it in my hands, But you're forever out of reach
Far as the eye can see, Nothing is meant to be
Doesn't mean much to me

Eb C#
But ohh, if I only had a rocketship
Eb C#
to fly I'd be right there in a minute

But it doesn't really matter where you are, however near is still so far
C# Eb
It's like you're lightyears away, you're lightyears away from me, ohhh...
