[Verse 1]
Emaj7
Well you wake up
B
You're only dreaming
G#m Emaj7
You wish that you could stay in the world your mind creates.
Emaj7 B
I find you looking out the window
G#m
at the road that stretches on,
Emaj7
you wish that you were on it
[Chorus]
C#m Emaj7
so why
C#m G#m
Why
C#m Emaj7
Why
G#m
Why do you linger
Emaj7
Why do you stay here
G#m
Why do you linger
Emaj7
why do you stay here.
[Verse 2]
Emaj7 B/F#
I hear your footsteps running through the garden
G#m
you're looking for a door
E
but your mind is overgrown
Emaj7 B
the walls are only as high as we make them
G#m
we've put up every stone
Emaj7
only we can tear them down.
[Chorus]
C#m7 Emaj7
so why
C#m7 G#m
Why
C#m7 Emaj7
Why
G#m
Why do you linger
Emaj7
Why do you stay here
Emaj7
[Verse 3]
G# E
Darling there's no easy escape
G# Emaj7
Darling there's no cloud or flame
G#
Just one voice
G#
One lonely voice
G#
You can hear it
Emaj7
If you stop your ears.
[Ending]
Emaj7
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.
