_ He just finished [F#] eating dinner, [E] and stepped outside [D] the cave to smoke [G] the [F#] cigarette he'd
made [F#] from rolled up photo [E] paper.
There [D] were pictures of things back on earth.
[F#] He looked out on a grayish white expanse [E] of uninhabited terrain he [D] now called home.

_ [G] He'd seen plenty [F#] of mirages and imaginary [E] visitors up until then, [D] so he wasn't sure
what to think when [G] he saw swans [F#] in the wading on the shores of [F#m] pale white lake that he'd
[D] never seen there before.
And it was [F#] quite beautiful, _ and it was far away, cause everything beautiful is far [D] away. _ _

He knew he was [F#] as good as gone, but gone was somewhere [A] he really didn't mind going [D] to.
Since his shuttle [G] had crashed many years had passed, [F#] and the pictures of his loved [F#m] ones
that he drew on the walls of the [D] cave had finally faded.
[G] He put out a smoke [F#] and proceeded toward the lake, [E] repeating to himself, [D] everything beautiful
is far away.
