Treason
F#m G
And crimes that were never defined
Bm
Shes saying love is like a barren place
A
And reaching out for human faith is
F#m G
Is like a journey I just don't have a map for
Bm
So babys gonna take a dive and
A
Push the shift to overdrive
F#m G
And send a signal that shes hanging
(Fill 1)
All her hopes on the stars
What a pleasant dream
Just saying

A
And daddy never keeps in touch
F#m
Thats why she shies away from
G
Human affection

She packs her bags for outer space
F#m G
And now shes waiting for the right
Kind of pilot to come
And shell say to him
