[Intro]
A Em A Em A
[Verse 1]
A G
"The milk run, quick and cheap," he said, as he shipped from Station 3
A G D A
"A chance to be alone," he said, "just my guitar and me."
G A D A G
So he loaded up the cargo and he drifted from the bay
D A G D A Em
Navigation entered in, Starsong is on her way
A G
Two days at the halfway point, she's running on her own
A G D A
He's sitting in his cabin, writing songs of home
G A D A G
Well, she lurches twice, her jets fire, he crashes to the deck
D A G D A Em
He wakes to find the navicomp is a twisted, useless wreck
[Chorus]
A Em
You see, there ain't no hand to guide you when the memory banks are blown
A Em
There ain't no sign to point you to the star you call your own
G A F# G
Oh, no, there ain't no bloody road map for the road that leads you home
A Em A Em
There's only God to help you when you're lost in space alone
[Verse 2]
A G
Well, a dust speck, like a bullet bite, had carved away her brain
A G D A
Adrift with only life support, she won't find home again
G A D A
Well, her course has changed, she's drifting wide, he can't tell where he's
G
bound
D A G D A Em
He stares out at the endless stars, at space, without a sound
A G
Well, he turns on the mayday beam and he picks up his guitar
A G D A
He sings a song of loneliness, of a man without a star
G A D A G
Well, he sings of how he's feeling when there's no one else around
D A G D A Em
With little chance of getting home, with power running down
[Chorus]
A Em
You see, there ain't no hand to guide you when the memory banks are blown
A Em
There ain't no sign to point you to the star you call your own
G A F# G
Oh, no, there ain't no bloody road map for the road that leads you home
