Verse 1:
Gm         Dm
Stand in line, like military time,
F            C
flowers blooming up from dirt.
Gm        Dm
Wear the ties and complicatd lies,
    C              F
there's wrinkles on a fresh-pressed shirt.
  Gm       Dm
He stands alone, conforming on his own,
   F            C
he's thinking but he does not speak.
  Gm         Dm
He tries to fight, the edge is on his mind,
  F           C
but she is what he truly seeks.
  Dm          A
But she is what he truly seeks.....

Chorus:
F        Dm
Hey, is anybody out there?
      Bb    Bbm
I'm reaching out.... Hey?
     Dm
Is anybody out there?
  C   Bb   Bbm
I'm coming down..... Hey?
      Dm
Is anybody out there?
  C    Bb    Bbm    A
I'm freaking out... I'm freaking out..
(This verse sounds better with a different chord progression than the 1st.)
Verse 2:
  Gm         Dm
The heat does rise, performing double time,
  F            C
The sweat is falling from his brow.
  Gm          Dm
He's near his prize, but she begins to fly.
  C                 F
He knows that he must act, the time is now.
 Gm         Dm
A dance, they play an ancient lover's game,
 F                 C
averts his eyes and chooses not to stare.
  Gm         Dm
The trick, he sees, is aiming not to please,
 F                C
pretending that he doesn't really care.
    Dm                  A
If you want her, then pretend that you don't care...

(Chorus)

Bridge:
   Dm            F
We're trapped inside a star, oh we have gone too far.
Gm         Dm   Bb   A
All we want is to escape, escape, escape....

Chorus:
F             Dm
Hey, is there anybody out there?
  A    Gm
So shout it out!
        Dm
Hey, is anybody out there?
      Bb    Bbm
I'm reaching out.... Hey?
     Dm
Is anybody out there?
  C   Bb   Bbm
I'm coming down..... Hey?
      Dm
Is anybody out there?
  C    Bb
I'm freaking out...
  Bbm   A
I'm freaking out...
