The Unattainable Earth

Intro  A

A          E
Earth too huge to grasp
A          E
"Will" too wild to tame now
A          E
I'll be so bold to ask
A     E
Can I wear your name now?

C#   A#      C#      E
Sign language is the best I can do
C#          A#   
Learning to walk without gravity
C#              E
And just when I think that I know you

Am     C             Dm
In the unattainable earth
              E
Amazed in these half-light days
Am     C              Dm
In the unattainable earth
            E                   Am
Language is weak, but I keep on speaking
       F           B(add E)* E
Of the unattainable earth

A          E
Gestures freeze in the air
A          E
Filled by those born later
A          E
Dead men spoke words here
A          E
Heard before and after

C#   A#      C#      E
My writing is just immense amazement
C#          A#   
Should you really reveal anything
C#              E
When I just misunderstand it?

Am     C             Dm
In the unattainable earth
              E
Amazed in these half-light days
Am     C              Dm
In the unattainable earth
            E                   Am
Language is weak, but I keep on speaking
       F           B(add E)* E
Of the unattainable earth

Solo  E

A          E
Down the twists and turns
A          E
Of a long, long story
A          E
I am here to learn
A          E
About the weight of glory

C#   A#      C#      E
My questions right now don't need all the answers
C#          A#   
Just, please don't ever let go of me
C#              E
No, don't ever stop loving me

Am     C             Dm
In the unattainable earth
              E
Amazed in these half-light days
Am     C              Dm
In the unattainable earth
            E                   Am
Language is weak, but I keep on speaking
       F        B(add E)* E
Of the unattainable earth
E

* B(add E) = 7  7  9  8  7  7  -- Fret
Play this chord, then the E barred at the 7th fret,
and it should sound just like the actual song.
