  I  was working shift on the  six o'clock,  quiet in the pale  dawn.
  Found  a bird caught in the machinery  -
  set  it free and watched  it go . . .
 Quit  the job that  very day, and  flew into the  sky
 just  following after this  aimless  desire,
 the  awful  desire, the  aimless desire,  worthless  desire...
 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 . . .

 [G]I was working shift on t[Em]he six o'clock[Bb], quiet in the pale[Em] dawn.

 [G]Found a bird caught in the [Em]machinery -

Q[G]uit the job th[Em]at very day, an[Bb]d flew into the[C] sky

j[D]ust following after th[Em]is aimles[D]s desire,

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 . . .
