  D5                            C5
   I look at all the sad story people

   cmajor7                         D5
   Lost in the seasons passing them by

                                  C5
   Inside my head lies a life on an island

   cmajor7                         D5
   Flooded with darkness deep into the sky


   Bridge   

   C5             cmajor7         D5
   But they're only the strangers on a train

   C5             cmajor7      A5        Fmajor7 
   Passing through my mind again and again


   Chorus

   A5                  Fmajor7
   But it's lonely to stand in this heat

   A5                  Fmajor7  
   Deep in the woods who knows who you'll meet

   A5                  Fmajor7
   But I didn't know the hill would be the steep

   A5                  Fmajor7
   And I didn't know the sea would be this deep

   C5
   And I'm sorry I treat you this way

   

   Deep inside the shell I crawl into
   Crying alone I know I'll get by
   Please stay away I just don't want to see you
   The things that you say I know they're all lies

   But I don't understand what the story's about
   Explain to me please how the sunlight got out

   Please don't leave me here
   Dreaming alone with phantoms
