A D/A E/A A
Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
E/G# F#m C#m D E
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
A D/A E/A A
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
E/G# F#m C#m D E Bm
who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my mind again...
No one left to hold me tight - on the
A/C# Dm C/E F
`real`other side but her in chains
A D/A
I had been alone till the madman come along
E/A A
With the knowledge and silver long beard
E/G# F#m C#m D E
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
A D/A
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
E/A A E/G#
They've been trying to hide away...
F#m C#m D
And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
E D E
go all the way
[Lugaid:]
Asus4 A Asus4 A D F#m E D E
Go all the way into the world of minds
Asus4 A Asus4 A D F#m E
Op - en the gate and do not close behind
D E
Prevent them from hiding the light away
A/C# D
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
Bm
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
E
million empty brains...

You've been fighting for your soul
Ebm E
And sometimes it takes a toll

Hope one day you'll understand

What it means to hold in hands

What they call a fantasy

It is nothing but a key

To the world that now you're in

That they call a wicked dream
[Elderane:]
