[Verse]
Dm F G Dm
Some mornings I wake up wishing I could be someone else
F G
If even just for a day get away from everything, escape myself
Dm F G
Not having to live with all this doubt and insecurity
Dm F C Dm F
King for a day, fool for a lifetime is all I'll ever be
[Pre-chorus]
C G Dm F
I made promises I knew I could not keep
C G Bb
I made choices I knew were wrong 'cause I was weak
F C (let ring)
I know that now
[Verse]
Dm F G Dm
But even though my heart has always been in the right place
F C Dm
It's on a different beat and I have always moved at a different pace
F Dm F G Dm
In my refusal I betray myself and I can't help to think
F G Dm F
that no matter what or if I try I will keep beating out of sync
[Pre-chorus]
C G Dm F
I made promises I knew I could not keep
C G Bb
I made choices I knew were wrong 'cause I was weak
F C
I know that now
[Chorus]
F Dm C
I have walked these streets a thousand times
F Dm C
Wondering where it all went wrong
F Dm C Bb Dm C
Where I lost myself to who I am holding on to a dream for too long
Bb F Dm C
I held on to a dream for too long

F Dm C
I have walked these streets a thousand times
F Dm C
Wondering where it all went wrong
F Dm C Bb Dm C
Where I lost myself to who I am holding on to a dream for too long
F Dm C
I have sailed this waters back and forth
F Dm C
To fight a battle that can't be won
F Dm C
I am left in a vast and empty world
Dm G Dm C
With no dream to which I can hold on
Bb Dm C
For the dream is long long gone
Bb F C (single strums, sustained)
Yeah the dream is long long gone
