Feel their cold hands on, everything that I love
Bm              F#m
Cold like some, magnificant skyline
A                    Em                   G
Out of my reach, but always in my eyeline now

Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that
Bm                 F#m
I had planned, the map of my world gets
A                      Em                           G
Smaller as I sit here, pulling at the loose threads now

VERSE:
C
I dreamed I was drowning
Am 
In the river Thames
G
I dreamed I had nothing at all
F                       C
Nothing but my own skin

PRECHORUS:

Slipped away from your open hands
Bb    F
Into river

Saw your face looking back at me

I saw my past, and I saw my future

CHORUS:
                           F
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
                                 C
'Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
                                F
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
                             C
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
                  Bb
Put it all back together

I dreamed I was watching
Am
The young lovers dance

The more I squeeze, the quicker we're over

CHORUS:

VERSE:
C
Was it all in real time
Or was it just in my mind
(G) Am
Or was I just a ghost passing through you?
(G) C
Clinging to the wreckage
Until I got the message
(G) Am
Hanging at the edge of the room

PRECHORUS:
         G
Give me something that's real
        F
Give me half of your bitterest pill
Em
Something from under the surface
      Dm     F
You actually feel

CHORUS:
   G                 Am       Dm
We say these words again and again
     C                   F
But they still sound the same
G              Am            Dm
It was in your eyes, in your eyes
      C             F
They were just easy lies

VERSE:
C
The lightest words are heavy
And promises are easy
(G) Am
And no one's ever happy or sad for very long
(G) C
But just because I said it
It doesn't mean I meant it
(G) Am
I guess that was the way all along

PRECHORUS:
         G
I'm just shaping the sound
         F
I'm just turning the syllables round
Em
Dipping my toe in the water
    Dm            F
And watching you drown


CHORUS:
   G                 Am       Dm
We say these words again and again

BRIDGE:
                Am    F   C  Em
And it's been a long time waiting

And it's been a lifetime in the making

SOLO:
G - Am - Em - C - F

I will come to your aid
G              Am            Dm
Was it just a dream, just a dream
         C          G
'cos was it real to me

   G                 Am       Dm
