Intro:
E    E    E    E

Verse 1:
E                   E         E                        E                 B
  It started with a low light,  next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed.
                      C#m        B                       B              E
And then they took my blood type,  they left a strange impression in my head.
                    E      E                         E                   B
You know that I was hopin',  that I could leave this starcrossed world behind.
                 C#m  B                      B
When they cut me open,  I guess I changed my mind.

Prechorus 1:
        A      B          C#m      G#m
And you know I might just walk too far
         A          B                  C#m              G#m     
from the floor this time, 'cos they're calling me by my name.
            A                        B                  G#m              C#m
And they're zipping with light beams to street corners, phones, and satellites.
B                 B             B              B
  Oh that was the turning point,  that was one lonely night.

Chorus:
E                       C#m          E                         A
  The starmaker says it ain't so bad,  the dream-maker's gonna make you mad.
A                     C#m                 B
  The spaceman says, "Everybody look down,  it's all in your mind."

Verse 2:
E                      E        E                     E              B
  Well now I'm back at home and,  I'm looking forward to this life I live.
                    C#m      B               B              E
You know it's gonna haunt me,  so hesitation to this life I give.
                          E    E                           E                       B
You think you might cross over,  you're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea.
                   C#m  B                      B
You better look it over,  before you make that leap.

Prechorus 2:
        A        B           C#m        G#m
And you know I'm fine, but I hear those voices
   A         B           C#m        G#m
at night sometimes, that justify my claim.
        A                     B                        G#m        C#m
And the public don't dwell on my transmission, 'cos it wasn't televised.
B                B             B      B
  But it was the turning point,  on a lonely night.

(C#m)            (C#m)        (C#m)            (C#m) 
     They say the Nile used to run from East to West.

E                       C#m          E                         A
  The starmaker says it ain't so bad,  the dream-maker's gonna make you mad.
A                     C#m                 A B                  E
  The spaceman says, "Everybody look down,    it's all in your mind."
C#m E A A C#m B B                E    C#m E A                A     C#m B B
                  It's all in my mind,        it's all in my mind.
NC (E)              (E)  (E)              (E)     
      It's all in my mind,  it's all in my mind.
(B)              (C#m) (B)            (B) (E)
   It's all in my mind,   it's all in, my, mind.
