[INTRO]


[V1]
C5          A5           G5
  A disconcerting way to wake:

to find everything in place
C5               A5           G5           F5
 the world goes on without my faith in anything
C5            A5              G5
 to have to drag myself from bed,

pull a sweater over my head
C5         A5           G5              F5
 somehow find a way to brave the sun again

[CH 1]
     A5     F5
And all of this
     A5          F5
just as I was beginning
   A5             E5 *   F5
to have the most amazing dream.

[V2]
C5                 A5
 They rolled the stones away
 G5
and let everyone
C5            A5        G5      F5
 come right in and say hello to me.
C5               A5           G5
 They picked me up and held me there
                 C5
and smiled at my
    A5    G5    F5
crumpled wings.

[CH 2]
    A5      F5
And all of this
     A5          F5
just as I was beginning
   A5              E5 *  F5
to have the most amazing dream.

A5 - F5 - A5 - F5
A5 - E5 * - F5

[INST]  C5 - A5 - F5 - [ E5 * - G5 ]  (x4)


[OUTRO]
C5             A5            F5   [ E5 * - G5 ]
 And when you go to sleep at night,
C5           A5          F5    [ E5 * - G5 ]
 don't you ever feel the weight
C5            A5                F5     [ E5 * - G5 ]
 of all the things that make you happy;
C5             A5              F5   [ E5 * - G5 ]
 that float around you, pull you down?

    A5    F5
And don't you
A5       F5
ever want to
A5              E5 *        F5
stand up on the waves and run?

[CHORDS]
E5 *: 022010
Am7: X02010 (it sound better, but a regular Am works alright too)
F5 : 133211


**the whole INST part is built around the pull of the B-string (000010), so in general 
chords should be PICKED like this:

C5 : X32010 - X32000 - X32010
A5 : X02210 - X02200 - X02210
F: no change
Em*: 022010 - 022000
G: 320010 - 320000

it's very similar to the structure of "True Love Waits" only much slower (and picked, if 
prefer)

you can also have a lot of fun working in the really high-pitched electric solo at the end:

E:-------3-- | 
B:-0-1------ | 
G:---------- |
