I'm sure there should be a B chord thrown in there somewhere, but since this is 
just a beginner's tab, I decided to leave it out. This song is tabbed out to be a 
solo acoustic. However, anyone else is free to
use this as a template.  Happy playing!

[NOTE: Use C# as your vocal starting point.
If you're doing this without a capo, the starting note would be B.]


CAPO 2ND FRET

A                  D
A glass, a view, a mirror

E       A
which one

A                   D       E       A
distracts like open windows in the gusts

E      D          A
a calm day will come

E      D
A calm day will

A
This dream is
This dream is

D
This dream is
               E
in a telescope now

This dream is
This dream is

A
This dream is
This dream is

D
This dream is
               E
in a telescope now
This dream is
This dream is

A
Fever in bed

D
Time covers

E     A
go unknown

A                          D
This fright it grows and misses

E         A
Sinks and floats

E      D        A
A calm day will come

E       D
my calm day will

A
This dream is
This dream is

D
This dream is
               E
in a telescope now
This dream is
This dream is

A
This dream is
This dream is

D
This dream is
               E
in a telescope now
This dream is
This dream is

(one strum) A
Fever in bed
Time covers

(one strum) A
go unknown

(one strum) A
Until two eyes out of the darkness

(resume normal strumming) A
bring hope close

A D E D E A (X2)

A
This childish

            D
heart won't wait
it dances

         E
keeps me awake
to think on to think on

A
you're the greatest light,
             D
the greatest shade
it means that

         E
I can be happy for you

D
Happy for you

A
Happy for you
Happy for you

E
happy for you

D
Happy for you

A
Happy for you
Happy for you

E
Happy for you

D
Happy for you....
