[Verse 1]
Amaj7
Well you wake up
E
You're only dreaming
C#m Amaj7
You wish that you could stay in the world your mind creates.
Amaj7 E
I find you looking out the window
C#m
at the road that stretches on,
Amaj7
you wish that you were on it
[Chorus]
F#m Amaj7
so why
F#m C#m
Why
F#m Amaj7
Why
C#m
Why do you linger
Amaj7
Why do you stay here
C#m
Why do you linger
Amaj7
why do you stay here.
[Verse 2]
Amaj7 E/B
I hear your footsteps running through the garden
C#m
you're looking for a door
A
but your mind is overgrown
Amaj7 E
the walls are only as high as we make them
C#m
we've put up every stone
Amaj7
only we can tear them down.
[Chorus]
F#m7 Amaj7
so why
F#m7 C#m
Why
F#m7 Amaj7
Why
C#m
Why do you linger
Amaj7
Why do you stay here
Amaj7
[Verse 3]
C# A
Darling there's no easy escape
C# Amaj7
Darling there's no cloud or flame
C#
Just one voice
C#
One lonely voice
C#
You can hear it
Amaj7
If you stop your ears.
[Ending]
Amaj7
I wake up
N.C.
I was only dreaming
N.C.
But I wish that I could stay
N.C.
In the world my mind creates.
