No Mans Land

C Am Em G (2x)

[Verse 1]:
C      Am    Em          G
I left home, tears in my eye
C           Am           Em    G
Where I was going, I had no idea
C              Am       Em          G
That must have been the last time I cried
     C           Am             G         C
From that moment forward all my teardrops disappeared

[Chorus]:
F               C                G            C
Yeah, I'm going down where there ain't no one around
F          C           G     F
And nobody knows who I am
C              Am      Em        G
There's no way out, no north, no south
         A#  F     C
Here, in no man's land

[Interlude]:
C Am Em G (2x)

[Verse 2]:
C           Am       Em         G
Digging for days but no sign of diamonds
C          Am       Em         G
All that I saw was garbage and worms
      C               Am         Em        G
And a glimpse of the future, the maniac horizon
  C                  Am           G         C
A silhouette, I will dance in the lightning storm

[Chorus]:
F               C               G             C
Yeah, I'm going down to the forgotten part of town
F              C             G      F
With roses and rubies in my hands
C             Am     Em               G
The fog rolls in and waltzes with the wind
         A#  F     C
Here, in no man's land

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]:
C                 Am      Em         G
The time finally came to abandon my name
       C          Am            Em         G
Take a blind-eyed leap into the big-old unknown
 C                   Am             Em         G
Someday maybe you'll find me like a wild Santa Claus
     C       Am               G            C
In a tinfoil hat talking on a disconnected telephone

[Chorus]:
F            C           G             C
But I got my crown and I got my sacred cow
      F             C                G      F
I'm a Buddha in the blazing, sinking sand
C          Am      Em         G
The purple skies electrify my eyes
         A#  F     Am     C    G
Here, in no man's land

[Bridge]:
        A#          F         C
Tell my neighbor to water my plants
         A#           F              C
Tell the Devil that I learned how to dance
         A#        F           C
Tell the Angels to wait up for me
         A#        F
Tell the world I'm free

[Verse 4]:
        C         Am         Em           G
And I'm deep in a dream the landscape is empty
   C            Am          Em               G
Except for one soul, she's waiting there for me
   C             Am      Em        G
I fell into her arms, I faintly remember
    C              Am             G                  C
The sweet song of salvation, the hummingbirds in the trees

[Outro]:
F                   C           G           C
Yeah, I'm checking out and I'm riding on a cloud
F                C           G     F
Back to where my whole being began
        C                   Am           Em              G
Well, I started to speak in tongues and swing around the sun
         A#  F     C
Here, in no man's land
         A#  F     C
Here, in no man's land
         A#  F     C
Here, in no man's land
