VERSE 1
G                   Bm7
Through the corridors of sleep

        C9            G
Past the shadows dark and deep

Bm                  C9          G    C  G
My mind dances and leaps in confusion.

G                  Bm
I dont know what is real,

      C9            G
I can't touch what I feel

      Bm            C9            G
And I hide behind the shield of my illusion.

CHORUS:

D      C            G            Em
So I'll continue to continue to pretend

Am7                Em
My life will never end,

       A         C
And flowers never bend

          G4  G
With the rainfall.

VERSE 2

G               Bm7
The mirror on my wall

       C9            G
Casts an image dark and small

Bm              C9                G         C  G
But Im not sure at all its my reflection.

G               Bm7
I am blinded by the light

 C9                   G
Of God and truth and right

        Bm         C9                  G         C  G
And I wander in the night without direction.

CHORUS

VERSE 3:

     G               Bm7
Its no matter if youre born

       C9            G
To play the king or pawn

      Bm            C9                  G         C  G
For the line is thinly drawn tween joy and sorrow,

G         Bm7
So my fantasy

 C9          G
Becomes reality
        Bm            C9            G         C  G
And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow.
