[Verse 1]
Gmaj7
Well you wake up
D
You're only dreaming
Bm Gmaj7
You wish that you could stay in the world your mind creates.
Gmaj7 D
I find you looking out the window
Bm
at the road that stretches on,
Gmaj7
you wish that you were on it
[Chorus]
Em Gmaj7
so why
Em Bm
Why
Em Gmaj7
Why
Bm
Why do you linger
Gmaj7
Why do you stay here
Bm
Why do you linger
Gmaj7
why do you stay here.
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 D/A
I hear your footsteps running through the garden
Bm
you're looking for a door
G
but your mind is overgrown
Gmaj7 D
the walls are only as high as we make them
Bm
we've put up every stone
Gmaj7
only we can tear them down.
[Chorus]
Em7 Gmaj7
so why
Em7 Bm
Why
Em7 Gmaj7
Why
Bm
Why do you linger
Gmaj7
Why do you stay here
Gmaj7
[Verse 3]
B G
Darling there's no easy escape
B Gmaj7
Darling there's no cloud or flame
B
Just one voice
B
One lonely voice
B
You can hear it
Gmaj7
If you stop your ears.
[Ending]
Gmaj7
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.
