Illusion

E

[Verse 1]
E                     B7
I once would receive invitations
F#m                          E
For cocktails on top of the Ritz
A                  E
I'd take without hesitation
F#                 B
All of the glamour and glitz
E                   B7
But I'll let you in on a secret
F#m                     G#
Diamonds are just little rocks
C#m
At broad daylight
F#
They sparkle so bright
F#m                            B
There's not much to see in the dark

[Verse 2]
E                    B7
I once had a vintage Ferrari
F#m                  E
Gave it to Jean-Luc Godard

A                      E
Crossed many seas on a hot air 
balloon
F#            B
To spoonfeed the lions caviar
E                   B7
I soon developed an interest
F#m                    G#
To come home and kick off my shoes
C#m                    F#
Crank up my old Victroller
F#m                 B            
Cause there's nothing like 
      E
feeling the blues

[Bridge]
Am                    E
Nothing can ease the heartache
Am                  E
From that boy going away
D#                       G#m
The Ritz is no fun at a table for 
one
D#                         G#m  B
It's all folly and phony I'd say

[Verse 3]
E                     B7
I've meditated with Ghandi
            F#m                    
Then sailed to Bali for an 
   E
afternoon swim
A                             E
Still couldn't shake off the longing
F#                         B
For one more tomorrow with him
A                          
So I'll drink a toast to the 
  F#
memories
B7                      G#
Of all that we used to be
C#m                         F#
All that I have are these daydreams
F#m       B7             E
Until he comes back to me
E B F#m E A E F# B
Oooh  ooooh

[Otro]
Am                         F#
I've come to this final conclusion
B                         G#
Of things that are not to be
C#m                       F#
Life's a despairing illusion
F#m      B7             E
Until he comes back to me
Am    E
Oooh  ooooh
