Tom: Am
Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Well you wake up
G
You're only dreaming
Em Cmaj7
You wish that you could stay in the world your mind creates.
Cmaj7 G
I find you looking out the window
Em
at the road that stretches on,
Cmaj7
you wish that you were on it
[Chorus]
Am Cmaj7
so why
Am Em
Why
Am Cmaj7
Why
Em
Why do you linger
Cmaj7
Why do you stay here
Em
Why do you linger
Cmaj7
why do you stay here.
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 G/D
I hear your footsteps running through the garden
Em
you're looking for a door
C
but your mind is overgrown
Cmaj7 G
the walls are only as high as we make them
Em
we've put up every stone
Cmaj7
only we can tear them down.
[Chorus]
Am7 Cmaj7
so why
Am7 Em
Why
Am7 Cmaj7
Why
Em
Why do you linger
Cmaj7
Why do you stay here
Cmaj7
[Verse 3]
E C
Darling there's no easy escape
E Cmaj7
Darling there's no cloud or flame
E
Just one voice
E
One lonely voice
E
You can hear it
Cmaj7
If you stop your ears.
[Ending]
Cmaj7
I wake up
N.C.
I was only dreaming
N.C.
But I wish that I could stay
N.C.
In the world my mind creates.
