 ~INTRO~
 
 D6 Bm7 G6add13 X(2)
 
 ~VERSE~
 
 Bm Bm7                 Em7                   
   This one's about a dream I had last night
 Bm     Bm7                Em7                    
 How an old man tracked me home and stepped inside
 Bm         Bm7             Em7                     G    
 He put his foot inside the door and gave a crooked smile
                  D                     G    
 Something in his eyes something in his laugh
                  F#m                              
 Something in his voice that made my skin crawl off
 Bm           Bm7             Em7                  
 He said I've seen you here before I know your name
 Bm Bm7                 Em7                  
  You could have your pick of pretty things
 Bm Bm7               Em7               G   
  You could have it all everything at once
                   D                      G   
 Everything you've seen everything you'll need
                   F#m                  
 everything you've ever had in fantasies
 
 ~INTERLUDE~
 
 D6             Bm7             G6add13                      
 You've one life you've one life you've one life left to lead
 D6             Bm7             G6add13                      
 You've one life you've one life you've one life left to lead
 
 ~VERSE 2~
 
 Bm Bm7             Em7                  
  I woke up from my dream as a golden man
 Bm      Bm7             Em7                  Bm 
  With a girl I've never seen with golden skin
   Bm7             Em7                        G    
 I jumped up to my feet she asked me what was wrong
            D                            G 
 I began to scream I don't think this is me
                F#m                      
 Is this just a dream or really happening
 
 ~REPEAT INTERLUDE~
 
 ~CHORUS~
 
 G5                    A5     
 What direction what direction
                       B5     
 What direction what direction
 I'm splitting up I'm splitting up
            D            G       
 This is my personal disaffection
                     A                           
 What direction what direction what direction now
 
 ~VERSE 3~
 
 Bm Bm7                Em7                   
  I looked outside the glass at golden shores
 Bm Bm7              Em7                    
  Golden ships and masts with golden cords
 Bm  Bm7          Em7                   G  
  As my refection passed I hated what I saw
                     D                                    G   
 My golden eyes were dead and a thought passed through my head
                         F#m                          
 A heart that is made of gold can't really beat at all
 
 ~BRIDGE~
 
 G5                       
 I wanted to wake up again
 I wanted to wake up again
 Em7                G   
 Without a touch of gold
                    A   
 Without a touch of gold
 
 ~CHORUS 2~
 G5 P.M
 What direction what direction
 
 What direction what direction
 
 Death or action
                         G      
 Life begins at the intersection
                        A                        
 What direction what direction what direction now
 
 ~VERSE 4~
 
 Bm Bm7          Em7                       
  I woke up as before but the gold was gone
 Bm  Bm7             Em7                        
  My wife was at the door with her night robe on
 Bm  Bm7                Em7                       G    
  My heart beat once or twice and life flooded my veins
                D                                G    
 Everything had changed my lungs had found their voice
                      F#m                         
 And what was once routine was now the perfect joy
 
 ~OUTRO~
 D6             Bm7             G6add13               
 You've one life you've one life one life left to lead
 D6             Bm7             G6add13               
 You've one life you've one life one life left to lead
