[Verse 1]
A# D#
On and on I've went and gone and fallen so far behind
Cm F A#
Running, always working, never having no time
A# D#
Let off from the army, settle into sweet repose
Cm F A#
Keeping everything inside until it explodes
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
Come up in my dream, you won't come down
D# A# F
You get the feeling that you're being run out of town
Cm
I was a soldier in the evergreen war
D# A# F
Nobody seems to talk about it no more
[Chorus]
A# D#
Oh, you, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What this life can do to a fool like me
A# D#
You, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What this life can do to a fool like me
[Verse 2]
A# D#
Strangers and their kindnesses help me along the way
Cm F A#
Give me so much more than I can hope to repay
A# D#
Situations rise and fall but they don't belong to me
Cm F A#
I can't get inside 'em, can't pretend that I see
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
Caught up in my dream, you won't get free
D# A# F
You start to get the feeling you're lost out at sea
Cm
Tell all the old men stop telling tales
D# A# F
Nobody really believes in chasing white whales
[Chorus]
A# D#
Oh, you, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What a love can do to a fool like me
A# D#
You, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What a love can do to a fool like me
[Verse 3]
A# D#
Lying underwater looking up at the surface lights
Cm F A#
Shining so alive and playing games with my eyes
A# D#
Footfalls on the cobblestone echoing in the fog
Cm F A#
I just act at their command, I do tricks like a dog
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
Come up in my dream, you won't come out
D# A# F
You start to see what the mad men are laughing about
Cm
Somewhere in my dream I already know
D# A# F
I had this one before and I know how it goes
[Chorus]
A# D#
Oh, you, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What this world can do to a fool like me
A# D#
You, you don't know
Cm D# Cm D#
What this world can do to a fool like me
