VERSE 
G         Bm 
  In his imagination 
    C       D 
Heâ??s flying high 
G                  Bm 
  His thoughts are wings 
           C           D 
Taking him up into the sky

Heâ??s anywhere 
G                Bm           C

VERSE 
G              Bm                   C 
  Tonight he's working the midnight shift 
            D 
Arriving at ten 
G              Bm            C 
  Learning how slowly 12 can turn 
       D 
Into 7 am 


BRIDGE 
G                Bm 
  He's up to his eyes 
                  C 
In stuff he'll despise 
            D 
The same as every weekday 
G                Bm 
  But inside his head 
            C 
Heâ??s easily led 
            D 
And in his imagination

Heâ??s flying away 
C        D 
 In his imagination 
     G       Bm 
Heâ??s flying away 
C        D 
 In his imagination 


MIDDLE 8 
Bm                C 
  He tells me his mother says 
   Bm                C 
He should be glad to be employed 
  Bm           Em           A 
Unlike so many young folk today 
              D          G 
But he's not exactly overjoyed

The same as every weekday

Heâ??s easily led

I see he's back with a smile on his face 
G                 Bm 
  Says he's had a call from London 
C                    D  
  And been offered a place 


BRIDGE 
G                   Bm 
  He's leaving next week 
                 C 
The future's not bleak

Heâ??s going to be an artist 
G              Bm 
  He's got an idea 
             C 
Could be a career 
              D 
He knows he's one of the smartest

Flying away 
C              D 
  Through his imagination
