Gm                      F                A#         D#     D7        Gm 
Here in my place and time, and here in my own skin, I can finally begin 
Gm                       F                 A#           D#     D7        Gm   F A# D# D7 
Let the century pass me by, standing under night sky, tomorrow means nothing

Gm                    F                 A#                    D#              D7          Gm 
I was only a child then, feeling barely alive when I heard a song from the speaker of a passing car 
Gm                       F                      A#             D#       D7 
And prayed to a dying star, the memory's fading I can almost remember singing 



Gm     F      A#     D# 
la, la la, la la la la 
Gm     F      A#     D7            Gm    F A# D# D7 
La la, la la, la la la,....ooh ooh ooh 


verse 3:

We watched the end of the century, compressed on a tiny screen, dead star collapsing and we could see 
Gm                      F                  A#                    D#            D7    Gm   F A# D# D7 
That something was ending, are you through pretending we saw its signs in the suburbs 


verse 4: 

Gm                         F                      A#                 D#         D7    Gm 
You could never have predicted, that he could see through you, Kasparov, Deep Blue, 1996 
Gm                          F                       A#                 D#             D7 
Your mind's pulling tricks now, the show is over so take a bow, we're living in the shadows 

 

Gm     F      A#     D# 
la, la la, la la la la 
Gm     F      A#     D7            Gm    F A# D# D7 
La la, la la, la la la,....ooh ooh ooh

Hey put the cellphone down for a while,in the night there is something wild,can you hear it breathing 
    Gm                        F                            A#                D#           D7       Gm 
Hey put the laptop down for a while, in the night there is something wild I feel it, it's leaving me
