	Long ago I wandered through my mind
	In the land of fairytales and stories
	Lost in happiness I knew no fears
	Innocence and love was all I knew - Was an illusion

	Soon the days were passing into years
	Happiness just didn't come so easy
	Life was bored of fairytales and daydreams
	Innocence was just another word - Was an illusion

At the end of each verse - Riff 2

Then over Gm maybe Gm7

Lost in the Wheels of Confusion
Running through valleys of tears
Eyes full of angry delusion
Hiding in every day fears

Riff 2 & Main Riff & Riff 3

Main Riff
So I found that life is just a game
Hurts you now, there's never been a winner
Try your hardest, you'll still be a loser
The world will still be turning when you've gone

Riff 2 x 3 then
