[ v1 ]

Am
they say the devil’s in the details
G
i know what they mean
F
i’m walking in the wasteland
G
with the ghost in the machine
Am
there’s a simulated sunset
G
starlight in my eyes
F
the skies are filled with miracles
G
and half of them are lies

{ch}

Am
are you real or not?
F G
it’s a fine line
Am
are you ready or not
F G
for the light of day
Am
are you real or not?
F G
these are strange times
F E7
and i don’t want to live this way

[ v2 ]

Am
when you wake up from a nightmare
G
and it’s worse when you’re awake
F
and there’s no one you can turn to
G
and there’s nothing you can take
( spoken )
you gotta ask yourself

{repeat chorus}
