Intro:

      (cellos [eighth notes] w/trash organ & harp):

      A        D        E        A
      / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

Verse 1:

      A            D                            E
      I see you standing in the alleys and the hallways (wait a second!)
              A
      You're gone now
      A          D                                    E
      I run to touch you but you vanish through the doorways
          A
      And oh how
       E
      Hard it is to live without you, I loved everything about you
       G
      Now I know you're really gone, but my imagination
          A
      Is so strong

Pre-chorus:

                           C#m
      [1: That  2: Then] I see you comin' into view
      A          C#m
        And your face is tellin' me
      F#m                   E
      Oh, yeah, oh, want to be by my side
      F#m                   E
      Oh, yeah, oh, now it finally died      [1: (wait a second!)
                                              2: (here it comes again!)]

Chorus:

      A                         D        E
        Mirage, that's all you are to me
      A                     D Bm  E
        Mirage, something I only see

Verse 2:

      So I keep walking through the alleys and the hallways
      Where are you
      I keep remembering the kissing in the doorways
      The car, too
      How it all comes back to me, the movies every Saturday
      The place we used to go to eat, I want so much to have it
      Like it used to be

[repeat pre-chorus]

       A         D              E                    A
      Just a mirage, (just a mirage) that's all you are to me
       A         D              E                      A
      Just a mirage, (just a mirage) something that I only see
