[Verse 1]
F#
For too long now I've been
A#m
Adrift in this ocean that washed over me
Fb F# D#m
Diluting the secrets that you had to keep
Fb
From the world that's been...
F#
...Spinning around you
Cb/F#
With and without you sedating, unkind
G#m
Show you the way, deliver and faint!
C#sus4 C#
Relish to stand in line!
D#m
Oh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F# C#/F
I guess you'll find no one to blame
Fb D#m
We're tied to the rules of someone else's game
C#
Try to fly, flap your wings
Cb
As you look to the night sky
C#sus4 C#
A# gilded cage in the twilight
[Chorus]
F#m
You dance on a wire
C#m Cbsus4 Cb
See the piper at the gates of dawn
F#m
Been caught in the mire
C#m D Cbsus4
Now you're reaching for the stars oh oh
C#sus4 F#m
dance on the wire
Fb/G# Asus4 A
To the breeze that carries change
D F#m Fb
Tonight you will see the Great Pan in the stars
Cb/D# D Dmaj7
The piper at the gates of dawn you'll hear
[Interlude]
F# G# F#/Cb F#
Ooh ooh ooh oh uoohh
[Verse 2]
F#
For quite a while I have been
A#m
The one that I thought I was happy to be
Fb F# D#m
Masquerade, at least a shadow play
Fb
No one's gonna see...
F#
...behind the fascade, those rallying calls
Cb/F#
You're afraid to awake
G#m
Look at the sky, you can't defy
C#sus4 C#
The dark that is calling your name
D#m
Oh
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F# C#/F
You're blind by the beauty around
Fb D#m
You're numb by the touch and you're deaf to the sound
C#
Of the sweet-smelling bright
Cb
melody of the moonlight
C#
That devours the bars in the twilight
[Chorus]
F#m
You dance on a wire
C#m Cbsus4 Cb
See the piper at the gates of dawn
F#m
Been caught in the mire
C#m D Cbsus4
Now you're reaching for the stars oh oh

Now open your eyes, ain't it what you've been wanting

We're the dream the inhabits the waking old world
Fb F#m Dsus2
We're right here, we're the doorway to guide you across
Fb F#m Dsus2
Exposed to the spirits that you're meant to be citing
Fb F#m Dsus2
Misfit and misplaced, you'll never belong
[Bridge 2]
Fb F#m Dsus2
We're the breath you don't catch, we're the great expectations
Fb F#m Dsus2
You ain't measured up to on the beautiful side
Fb F#m Dsus2
We're the promise not kept - bred in desolation
Fb F#m Dsus2
We're the will of the wisp - demerged from the light
Fb F#m Dsus2
Get me out of here, take me away
Fb F#m Dsus2
Take me, take me, take me away
