Bm (x24432@1)                        (Bm7)
Looking down on empty streets, all she can see,
         Em/G (322000@1)                         Em7
Are the dreams all made solid, are the dreams made real,
Bm (x24432@1)                 (Bm7)
All of the buildings, all of the cars,
     Em/G (322000@1)                  Em7
Were once just a dream in somebody's head,
      Bm (x24432@1)                      (Bm7)
She pictures the broken glass, pictures the steam,

Bm (x24432@1)                      (Bm7)
Nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey,
  Em/G (322000@1)                        Em7
Nowhere in the suburbs, in the cold light of day,
 Bm (x24432@1)                            (Bm7)
There in the midst of it, so a - live and alone,
