The Thing About Dreams by The Airborne Toxic Event

Intro
C F x2


    C
The thing about dreams,
Is that everything seems,
Like you're riding a wave.
                                  F  C
It's been forming all day in your mind.


C
The thing about time,
It's all in your mind.
                                                  F
Days turn to weeks turn to years turn to infinite signs,
                      C
What you're leavin' behind.


        Am
And the hell with the rest,
    G
You gave them your best.
    F
You talk through your teeth
And the black cigarettes
         G
And your hand.


     C
I've always believed
You were more than impossible,
More than you seem
                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,
    Am
For my eyes.
      G
Let's stay the night.
                     F  G
We'll leave with the sunrise.

     
    C
The thing about me,
Is I wanted to be,
More than just friends
And hardly acquaintances.
F               C
I, I wanna know why.


C
Turn in your sleep,
The secrets you keep,
                                                 F
The things that you bury so deeply, discreetly inside.
       C
My, oh my.


        Am
And the hell with the words,
   G
Or haven't you heard?
F
Nobody says what they mean
                   G
'Til the second or third whiskey ride.


     C
I've always believed
You were more than impossible,
More than you seem
                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,
    Am
For my eyes.
      G
Let's stay the night.
                     F  G
We'll leave with the sunrise.


    C
The thing about love,
It's never enough.
Circumstance changes
                               F
And life's always calling your bluff.
           C
Enough is enough.

             Am
And when you sleep, you're alone.
         G
When you dream you're just one
     F
Of a million small pieces.
                          G
My darling I see you, I'm one.


     C
I've always believed
We were more than impossible,
More than you seem
                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,
    Am
For my eyes.

             F
And now I've said too much,
    G
I'm not givin' up.
        F
I can't carry the weight
        G
Of this overfilled cup.
       F
I just close my eyes
            G
Like you're close to the touch
         C
And I'll dream, dream.


You're not what you seem.
You're not what you seem.
