/ E5
What does the free fall feel like?
G5
Asks the boy with a spark in his eye
A5
Know why the nightingale sings?
C5 D5 E5(VII)
Is the answer to everything

E5
Taking a step to a world unbound
G5
Spinning my fantasies all around
A5
Freed from the gravital leash
C5 D5 *Start Intro/Riff1*
I swear the heavenґs in my reach


/ E5
Dancing with the spirit of the air
G5
In this ocean so open and fair
A5
Making love to the gods above
C5 D5 E5(VII)
On my maiden voyage so bold

E5
Landing safely to the blue lagoon
G5
Donґt know if this is the earth or the moon
A5
Joy of living is no more a mask
C5 D5 *Start Riff 2*
The Eden I found will forever last

Riff 2 
Just play the chords several times 
with palm muting, and it will sound nice...
