[Intro]
G D C
G D Bm C [Verse 1]
A E D My whole life's been filled with songs and dreams
A E D When I was a child I had a time machine
Bm E Little did I know it would go too fast
Bm D C A Little did I know it could see the Future. (riff1) But not the past [Verse 2]
A E D Leave it all behind Come what may
A E D Always thought I'd be comin' home someday
Bm E Little did I know that life is hard
Bm D C A Here I am, now, starin' out a window (riff1) In my own backyard [Chorus]
G D Em Is there any comfort to be derived?
C In knowin' that most of our lives
G D C Can never be the same, Can never go back home
G D Em And those that count out lucky I guess

C Can somehow escape from this mess
G D Bm C Me I can only do it in dreams and songs
