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
          G#m                 F#
I keep on climbing 'til I get well

[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?
