[Intro 1]
[Am][A][Am]
[A][Am][Adim][A][D][Dm][Am]
[A][Am][A][G][A][Am]
[A][G][E][D]
[A][G][A][G][A]

[Verse 1]
[A]Woke up [G]in [A]the morning staggered [G]out [A]of bed
Thought about [G]get[A]ting [Am]back again,
but went [A]downstairs instead
[E]Read the [D]daily pa[E]per have
to [D]know [E]the truth
Slammed the [D]door as I [C]ran out[D]side,
[C]looked at my wat[D]ch and cri[A]ed
Gotta get to work on [Am]time[A]
Gotta get [G]to work on time
[A]

[Verse 2]
[Am]
Then the [A]sky turned [B]a d[Am]eeper b[D]lue[Am]
Not a cloud as the [D]sun shone [E]through[C]
But all [Dm]around rain kept
[C]falling to the [Dm]ground[C]
The wind was [Dm]blowing but the trees
[Em]didn[A]'t make a soun[Am]d
Just [A]another [Am]alien afternoon

[Interlude 1]
Just another alien afternoon
[Am][A][Am][A][G][A]
[Am]Time that [G]I was leav

[Verse 3]
[Am]ing while
there's [G]still [A]a chance
Be[Am]fore I [G]start [A]believ[Am] ing
[A]in wha[Am]t I s[A]ee or hear
[E]Nothing here to [D]kee[E]p me,
nothing any[D]where
[E]Gotta get out[D] pac[C]k my bags[D]
be[C]fore [D]I go ins[A]ane
Gotta get [G]away in [Am]time
[A]Gotta get [G]away [A]in time

[Verse 4]
[Am]
Then the [A]sky turned from
[Am]blue to [D]green[Am]
Took on [A]colours I have [D]never [E]seen[C]
Then a [Dm]sound started [C]ringing in my [Dm]ears[C]
I heard [Dm]voices but in [Em]truth[A]
there's [Am]nobody there
Just an[A]other alien [Dm]after[Am]noon

[Interlude 2]
Just another alien afternoon
[Am][A]
[Am][A][G][A][Am][A]
[Am][A][Am]

[Verse 5]
To [Am]be th[A]ere ba[Am]ck where I
[Adim]belong[Am][Bm][Dm]
To feel [F]again the wind
[Em]upon my face[Am]
To see [A]again [B]all[Adim] that[Am]
I took for gran[Adim]ted[Bm][Dm]
[F]All [Em]that I left and everything I [A]knew

[Verse 6]
We [A]are [Asus4]home[G][A]
We are your home
We are all your home
Not [Asus4]another alien afternoon

[Interlude 3]
[A][Asus4][Am][F][G][F][G]
[Am][A][Asus4][A][Asus4][A][Asus4][Am][F]

[Verse 7]
Never more to [F]go wander[G]ing[F]
Never leaving my world be[G]hind
[A]

[Verse 8]
There [Asus4]was never a reason
[A]To leave my heart and my
home [G]behind[Am][A]
Where I was [Asus4]born is where
I should [Am]be now[F]
I would never be [G]lonely[F]
I would never be sad [G]again[Am][A]

[Verse 9]
[A]I wanted [Asus4]to go anywhe[A]re[Asus4]
[A]I wanted to see how strange
[Asus4]it all could be[A]
Nothing [Asus4]would ever take me
away [Am]again[F]
Never more to go wander[G]ing[F]
Never leaving my world behind
[G]No,[Am] no,[A][Asus4][A]
no, [Am]no[A]
Nothing will ever [Asus4]take me away[Am] agai[F]n,
[G]away aga[F]in[Am][Asus4][A]

[Outro 1]
No, no, no, no
[A][Asus4]
