* in this part , hit the first chord quickly and switch to D . this is

much easier if you are in C# tuning , so you can hit the power chord

and then strum the open D , A , and D strings . it should be pretty

obvious what to do if you listen to the song .

verse one

D A C G

D A
as far as you take me , that’s where i believe
C G
the realm of soft delusions , floating on the leaves
D A
on a distant shoreline , she waves her arms to me
C G
as all the thought police , are closing in for sleep
D A
the dilly dally , of my bright lit stay
C
the steam of my misfortunes
G A
has given me the power to be afraid
C A
and in my mind i’m everyone
C
and in my mind

verse two

D A
in the slipstream , of thoughtless thoughts
C G
the light of all that’s good , the light of all that’s true
D A
to the fringes gladly , i walk unadorned
C
with gods and their creations
G
with filth and disease
D A
porcelina , she waits for me there
C
with seashell hissing lullabyes
G A
and whispers fathomed deep inside my own
C A
hidden thoughts and alibis
C
my secret thoughts come alive
