Well I woke in mid-afternoon 
                  D            G
cause that's when it all hurts the 
most
G                                 
I dream I never know anyone at the
    C           D         G
 party and I'm always the host
     Bm                        
If dreams are like movies, then 
    C                       G
memories are films about ghosts
        D                       C 
You can never escape, you can only
                      G
 move south down the coast

I am an acrobat swinging trapezes 
through circles of flame
        Bm                         C
                            G       
(fill 3)
If you've never stared off in the 
distance, then your life is a shame
                D
and though I'll never forget your 
face,
C                               G   
    (fill 4)
sometimes i can't remember my name

Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

G                                 
Well, there's a piece of Maria in 
   C  D          G
every song that I sing
G                               C
And the price of a memory is the 
               D       G
memory of the sorrow it brings
                Bm                 
And there is always one last light 
     C                             G
to turn out and one last bell to
ring
        D                          
And the last one out of the circus 
     C               G
has to lock up everything

G

    D                       G       
(fill 2)
And the ghosts of the childer world 
will linger inside your head
        Bm                        
And the ferris wheel junkies will 
C                     G
spin there forever instead
        D                     C     
            G       (fill 1 )

G                                 
All the blue light reflections

that color my mind when I sleep
G                              
And the lovesick rejections that 
     C           D         G
accompany the company I keep
Bm                              C   
                 G          (fill 8)
All the razor perceptions that cut 
just a little too deep
        D

(fill 9 )
Hey I can bleed as well as anyone, 
but I need someone to help me sleep

So I throw my hand into the air and 
it swims in the beams
G                                   
    C            D             G    
(fill 11)
It's just a brief interruption of 
the swirling dust sparkle jet stream
        Bm                       
Well, I know I don't know you and 
          C                    G

        D
But I'd sure like to find out
                C                  
So why don't you climb down off 
           G
that movie screen

Bm  C     G       D
Hey Mrs. Potter don't turn
Hey Mrs. Potter I burn for you
Bm  C     G    D   C    C/B     G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

G                             
When the last king of Hollywood 
  C               D             G
shatters his glass on the floor
        G       D/F#
and orders another
        Em              D       Bm
Well, I wonder what he did that for
                Bm               
That's when I know that I have to 
               C                  G
get out cause I have been there
before
        D                     C

(fill 13)
We drove out to the desert just to 
lie down beneath this bowl of stars

    C               D               
G       (fill 14)
We stand up in the palace like it's 
the last of the great pioneer town
bars
  Bm                               
We shout out these songs against 
     C                  G
the clang of electric guitars
        D                          
You can see a million miles tonight
     C                   G
 But you can't get very far
            D                       
        C                  G        
(fill 14)
Oh, you can see a million miles 
tonight But you can't get very far

Hey Mrs. Potter I won't touch
Hey Mrs. Potter it's not much but
Bm   C   G   D   C   C/B        G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
