[Em][G] They [Em]used to tell me that 
[]I was just a fool, dreaming away my time.
[]But they soon found the more they put me down,
The more I [G]blocked them from my mind.
I [C]used to get my teacher so uptight,
[]He'd always have to ask his questions twice.

I'd be a [G]million miles away, drifting through time and space,
I was a million miles away from any [D]place.
I was a [G]million miles away, I've built a world of my own,
A million miles away, to parts un[D]known, I'd be [G]gone.

My [Em]end-of-term reports would always show
[]I did pretty well at school.
[]But I kept them hid from all the other kids,
I didn't [G]want to seem uncool.
My [C]homeroom teacher didn't understand
[]The reason why I never raised my hand.

I was a [G]million miles away, in a world of my own,
A million miles away, to parts un[D]known, I'd be [G]gone.

I've [Am]flown across the galaxies and [Dm]been to Berkeley Square,
I've [Am]passed the time with Sophocles and [Dm]never left my chair.

I'd be a [G]million miles away, drifting through time and space,
I was a million miles away from any [D]place.
I was a [G]million miles away, I've built a world of my own,
A million miles away, to parts un[D]known, I'd be [G]gone.
