version . figure out the best picking for yourself . sounds great on a western acoustic .

verse 1 :

Fmaj7 C Am Em Em7 ( the last two are played fast )

outside just killing time and making noise
and outside the daylight comes , the daylight goes and
weightless affairs that weigh less than air weighs
makes no stairways just stairs that go nowhere
don’t dream , that it’s a dream it is what it seems .
that it’s a dream it is what it seems .

Fmaj7 C G ( in the end of a verse )

verse 2 :

Fmaj7 C Am Em Em7 ( the last two are played fast )

climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
cold radio and licenses plates but don’t dream ,
that it’s a dream it is what it seems
that it’s a dream it is what it seems

Fmaj7 C G

bridge :

C C/B Am Fmaj7 ( slow part )
Em7 Fmaj7

behind every desire is another one waiting to be liberated when the first ones sated

verse 3 – 5 :

Fmaj7 C Am Em Em7 ( the last two are played fast )

water skiing , the water’s soft the water’s hard
you act nice , a black birthday card i threw it away
grown – up life , is like eating speed or flying a plane
it’ too bright , it’s too bright

outside just killing time and making noise
and outside the daylight comes , the daylight goes
climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
cold radio and licenses plates but don’t dream ,

climbing from over stimulated states to hearing
cold radio and licenses plates but don’t dream ,
that it’s a dream it is what it seems
that it’s a dream it is what it seems

Fmaj7 C G

end :

C C/B Am Fmaj7 ( slow part )
Em7 Fmaj7

white and black hats hide behind each other’s backs , all the time .
behind every desire is another one waiting to be liberated when the first ones sated

2x :

C C/B Am Fmaj7 ( slow part )
Em7 Fmaj7

ah ah ahhaa . . . .

end , hope you had fun!
