Skating Away On The Thin Ice Of a New Day

Listen to the song and play some D Dsus4 D Dsus2 Chords

Capo 3

C           G           F    A   C            G        F  A
Mean while back in the year one,--When you belonged to no one.
C            G       F      A    C        G         F  D
You didn't stand a chance, son,--If your pants were undone.

                           G          D         G
Cause you were bred for humanity and sold to society,
                 D    Nc          G
One day you'll wake up, in the Present Day,
   F                     Bb
A million generations removed from expectations
    D             G             A
Of being who you really want to be.

G        D      G      D     G         D
Skating away, skating away, skating away,
                            C                G            D
On the thin ice of the new day, ay e ay ay ay ! Ay ay ay ay !

G                             D                                   A
So as you push off from the shore, won't you turn your head once more
                              D
and make your peace with everyone?
G                        D                             A
For those who choose to stay, will live just one more day,
                                   D
to do the things they should have done.
G                                    A
And as you cross the wilderness, spinning in your emptiness,
              D
you feel you have to pray.
G                          F
Looking for a sign that the Universal Minds
   D               G                 A
Has written you into their Passion Play.

Chorus

G                            D                                 A
And as you cross the circle line, well the ice-wall creaks behind,
                        D
you're a rabbit on the run.
G                         D                         A
And the silver splinters fly in the corner of your eye
                        D
shining in the setting sun
G                                            A
Well, do you ever get the feeling that the stories too damn real,
                 D
and in the present tense?
G                                          F
Or that everybody's on the stage, and it seems like you're the
    D                G         A
only, person sitting in the audience.
