G                           Em           Bb                Em
 I was working shift on the six o'clock, quiet in the pale dawn.

G                              Em
 Found a bird caught in the machinery -

        Bb                  Em
 set it free and watched it go . . .

G                 Em            Bb            C
Quit the job that very day, and flew into the sky

     D                    Em      D
just following after this aimless desire,

    Em    D           Em      D       Em        D
the awful desire, the aimless desire, worthless desire...

[Verse 2] Now I've found causes and I've found families, but nothing ever lasts; I've known people I'd die for - if only they had asked. Where I'm from is not my home, and neither's where I'm bound; Just following after this aimless desire - worthless desire . . . [Verse 3] So tonight, beneath the bridge where the fires burn, God . . . take the freedom back, deliver me from the aimless desire, the worthless desire . . . And chimera she waits, and I have still got this hole in me; still got this hole inside of me . . .
