Intro: F#5 ? E5 ? D67M ? E5
F#5 E5 D67M E5
Bored of the life in the city of gold
E5 F#5 B5
He'd left and let nobody know
F#5 E5 D67M E5
Gone were the towers he had known from a child
E5 F#5 B5
Alone with the dream of a life
C#5 F#5 Ab5
He travelled the wide open road
F5
The blinkered arcade
Ab5 F#5 C#5
In search of another to share in his life
Eb5 Bb5 C#5
Nowhere
Eb5 F#5 Ab5
Everyone looked so strange to him
Eb5
They've got no horns and they've got no tail
Ab5
They don't even know of our existence
Eb5
Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold
Ab5
That lies in the deep distance, he cried
And wept as they led him away to a cage
"Beast that can talk", read the sign
The creatures they pushed and they prodded his frame
And questioned his story again
But soon they grew bored of their prey
Beast that can talk ?
More like a freak or publicity stunt
Oh, no
They've got no horns and they've got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold
That lies in the deep distance, he cried
Eb5 C#5
And broke down the door of the cage and marched on out
Ab5 Eb5 F5
He grabbed a creature by the scruff of his neck, pointing out
Bb5 Bb5 Eb5 Bb5
There, beyond the bounds of your weak imagination
Bb5 Bb5 Eb5 F5
Lie the noble towers of my city, bright and gold
Eb5 F5 G5 F5 C5 Eb5
Let me take you there and show you a living story
Bb5 C#5 Eb5
Let me show you others such as me
Ab5 C#5
Why did I ever leave ?
They've got no horns and they've got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold
That lies in the deep distance, he cried
And wept
And so we set out with the beast and his horns
And his crazy description of home
After many days journey we came to a peak
Where the beast gazed abroad and cried out
We followed his gaze and we thought maybe we saw
A spire of gold - no, a trick of the eye that's all
But the beast was gone and a voice was heard
They've got no horns and they've got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in a city of gold
That lies in the deep distance, he cried

Hello friend, welcome home
I'm sorry about the "D67M" chord, but i don't know any other name of it. It's
supposed to be D5 - B5 - C#5 - F#. If anyone know a better name for this chord, please comment or PM me :)
