[verse one]
Em B
Citizens of a starless sky
Em
have stolen the sun and held it for ransom,
Em B
an endless greed unsatisfied
Em
Can see the blood on their hands does more than just feed them,
G A Em
it's there for a reason
G A
because for all we know
[chorus]
C G G/F# C G G/F# C
All this is just a dream, things are not exactly as they seem,
G G/F# Em
save time to sit back and have a drink
C G G/F# C
Another man might just believe what he's told,
G G/F# C
But I'm on my way to being bought and sold,
G G/F# Em B
can't wait to measure my blood out in gold and platinum sales,
[verse two]
Em B
so drink the wine,boy drink it down
Em
The past is far gone replaced by this moment,
Em B Em
we're shadows of ourselves confined to shelves with nothing left to say
G A Em
Content to fade away
G A
'cause for all we know,
C G G/F# C G G/F# C
All this is just a dream, things are not exactly as they seem,
G G/F# Em
save time to sit back and have a drink
C G G/F# C G G/F# C
forgetting is easy without any soul with each empty promise it keeps getting old
C G G/F# Em B
Learning to measure my blood out in gold and platinum sales,
C B C B
or have I just failed, lost sight of the trail
