For the verses play single notes as indicated above.

-for the chorus play the A and G an octave up as octave chords


[Verse 1]
G     F#     D    E     F# D C# D C# B   Em
Don’t look, just keep your eyes peeled
G     F#     D       E  F# D C# D C# B  Em
Thoughtless, trapped in my minefield
G   F#   D  E  F#  D  C# D C# B    Em
Shotgun, never behind the wheel....anymore
G  F#    D   E   F# D C#  D   C# B  Em
Danger, monsters of smoke and mirror
G   F#  D   E   F# D    C#  D C# B  Em
Slowly, can one so lost be found?

[Chorus 1]
      A           G            Em
And I know you'll never believe
  A         G           Em
I play as though I’m alright
   A       G          Em
If life is but a dream,
    A   G          Em
Then....wake me!...up

[Bridge 1]
Em
Fallen leaves realize they are no friend of autumn
    F#                A
The view from hell is blue sky,
   F#        A
So ominously blue
F   Em   G  A  Em  F   Em   F  Em
Daydream until all the blue is gone

[Chorus 2]
      A           G            Em
And I know you'll never believe
  A         G           Em
I play as though I’m alright
   A       G          Em
If life is but a dream,
    A   G          Em
Then....wake me!

[Break]
F# F# F# G G
F# F# F# G G
F# F# F# G G
F# F# F# G G

[Bridge 2]
Em         F#
Underwater is another life
Em           F#
Disregarding every myth we write
Em                 F#
Rag doll churning, over and over--gasping in horror, so breathless you surface, just as the next wave is!...


[Verse 2]
G   F#     D   E  F# D   C# D C# B   Em
Big smile, really a show of teeth
G   F#  D E    F# D C# D  C# B   Em
Without a care in a world of fear
G   F#  D   E     F#   D   C# D C# B   Em
Lonely, you don’t know how I feel
G      F#   D    E  F# D  C# D C# B   Em
Praise God, nothing is as it seems....
