G
welcome to the land of fire
D/F#
i hope you brought the right attire ,
Em C
the crippled man is waiting at the door

G
he said “your eyes are much too bright”
D/F#
the things you say are never right ,
Em C
the sins of all the world lie on your head

G
so when you see me look the other way
D/F#
cause – ohoh – lately all i do is play
Em C
all the glasses in the world say “come with me . . . ”

G D/F#
i need a minute to get my head straight
Em C
just to hit it before it’s too late
G D/F#
innocent , considering my middle name is ’shake my body’
Em C
take a seat it’s glittering , i shake you in , i shake my body

intro/riff

G
welcome to the land of fail
D/F#
i hope you brought your soul for sale
Em C
the greeter’s still at home i think he died

G
the land of smash and fairy tale
D/F#
the truth of life is close to hell
Em C
the best you’ll be is nearly dead or failed

G
so when you see me look the other way
D/F#
cause lately all i do is say
Em C
these the plans i make believe all come with me

bridge ( riff/Chords )
G D/F# Em C
oh , perhaps it’s all a dream and make believe
G D/F# Em C
oh , the last of all my dreams but still leave me
