DLooking up at the Bdarkness, I saw, Dstanding in the Bmoonlight, something,
DI could never Bwork out, baby, Dnever underBstand 
Chorus:
We're all Eliving together Aand no one's goBin' to win
I've Elived my life and G#now I want to C#mlive some F#mmore
BBuild myself a F#castle in the B7air
ELocked myself inG#side and take aC#mway the F#mdoor
BI don't want to F#let them know I Bcare
BmPlaying snooker at mBidnight by myseBmlf, fell into thBe sports life, all of them
BmGot into the NewsweeBk in my prime, BmI became a questBion of the times
DDon't know where I'Bm going just thDe same, well I Bjust go back to where I came
