Recording sounds like Capo 2nd with 
the chords below

[Intro]
G  D  Am  D

[Verse]
        G                          
I don't know you in those clothes, 
        Bm
I don't know you with that hair
       C                    
Two di-mensional reflection, 
       D
unfor-giving unaware
          G                        
Part time dreamer, would be player,
             Bm
 you thought fame could outrun fear
          Am7                      
Something clearly terrified you, 
      D
did you choose to disappear

[Chorus]
        Am            D
Guess a-gain, guess a-gain
         Am7                       
You made friends and some still ask
            D
 about you, now and then

[Verse]
         G                         
Well you sang a pencil promise, 
      Bm
that you thought you might erase
Continues after the ad
       C                         
Left a fault line on your future, 
         D
someday heartache you must face
         G                      
Earned a black belt in disaster, 
          Bm
wound up acting like a jerk
       Am7                         
It's a fact of life, your final act
    D
 is gonna need some work

[Chorus]
                 Am                
Hey where've you been, where've you
 D
 been
         Am7                       
Learning lessons on the road to 
      D
hell and back again

[Bridge]
            G
And someone asked me once, where do 
we go when we arrive
          C                Cm     
If you're lucky, when it's over, 
   D
the dreamer's still alive
          G
A blessed mystery, for sweeter souls
 did not survive
              C                    
But if you're lucky, when it's 
  D
done, somehow deep inside
                      G      Bm    
The dreamer's still a-live
Am7    D


[Verse]
        G                        
Once re-ality's your roommate and 
     Bm
the truth stands at your door
         C                       
All your records may been broken, 
          D
trophies won't shine anymore
       G                           
New be-ginnings are the challenge, 
           Bm
but you're not where to start
     Am7                           
Unim-agined gifts are waiting, love
      D
 will find your grateful heart

[Chorus]
           Am           D
And then a-gain, once a-gain
         Am7                    
You will come to know the simple 
             D
man, you've always been

[Bridge]
            G
And someone asked me once, where do 
we go when we arrive
          C                Cm     
If you're lucky, when it's over, 
   D
the dreamer's still alive
          G
A blessed mystery, for sweeter souls
 did not survive
              C                    
But if you're lucky, when it's 
  D
done, somehow deep inside
                      G      D
The dreamer's still a-live

[Other]
Am                  D     Am    
  The anger will be gone,   and 
                    D              
the cynic will move on and if 
  G
you're lucky
