-Intro-
C Eb Bb F 
Ab Eb Bb F


-Verse 1-
(Cm Ab Cm Bb)
Cm              Ab       Cm Bb
Too late, the melody is over. The joke seems to 
Cm                Ab                Cm          Bb
Be on me, 'cause I’m the one not laughing down here on the floor
Cm Ab Cm Bb
Deflate the mystery of living in the most 
Cm               Ab               Cm                   Bb
heartless fashion I could ever imagine. No pretending on

-Chorus-
(Fm Ab Eb Bb)
                   Fm                     Ab 
Another place and time, without a great divide
                  Eb           Bb
And we could be flying deadly high
      Fm              Ab              Eb       Bb
I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake
                   Fm                     Ab 
Another place and time, without a warning sign
                  Eb           Bb
And we could be dying angels high
      Fm              Ab              Eb       Bb
I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake
(Fm Ab Eb C#)
Fm            Ab              Eb                C#
I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you wide awake


-Instrumental after chorus 1-
(Cm Ab Cm Bb)


-Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1)-
With me disaster finds a playfield
Love seems to draw dark twisted pleasure tearing at me
Cause I can't let you go
Mercy, like water in the desert
Shines through my memory like jewelry in the sun
Where are you now?


-Chorus-


-Middle eight-
(C Eb Bb F
Ab Eb Bb F)
C               Eb              Bb    
It’s like I’m raising to the sun
            F               Ab 
The lying face, the blazing gun
            Eb              Bb                F
Cause I’m afraid I will be left here without you
C          Eb             Bb 
Like I’m raising up the moon
F                             Ab
You give me more when I have none
            Eb               Bb            F
Cause I’m afraid I will be left here without you
(Cm Ab Eb Ab Bb)
 Cm      Ab       Eb    Ab         Bb
Wide awake, wide awake…


-Chorus-
