Someone  said to me, "I'll come into your dream and speak it to you" I already  knew
 I found  her in an attic where, dramatically
 She leaned in to me, and she  whispered these lines:
 "Wake and be fine-e-e.  You've still got time  to wake and be fine"
 use verse 1 chords
 Embracers meet with more embracers on the street
 They say "Hold me, dear stranger. Grab on to me
 We're carrying our years around us, or they're chasing down us.
 We're all here at the same time. Can we wake and be fine?
 Have we still got time to wake and be fine??"
 Verse 3 chords:
Villians  on the creep and killers in the crowd are carving apart our childhood  house
Lovers  in their sheets, dreaming lovers sweetly turn in their sleep all under  sunbeams
Everybody's  crashing, running, calling out the coming of things they kind  of can see
Someone  said to me, "It's just a dream. Why don't you wake up and you'll see?  It's fine."
 - ]  repeat a few times, then:
 Verse 4 chords:
In  those miles racing over endless fields of snow (you already heard, you already  know)
 The rescue  party finally lost their hearts, and then they shattered their bones
 And then they died  all alone
 The ships  all float from beaches by themselves above the hot afternoons
 (Goodbye,  you balloons!)
Adrift  above indifferent clouds, our hearts are crashing loudly
 On some rock  where the gulls whine,  "Wake and be fine-e-e
 You've still got time  to wake and be fine"
 - ]  repeat a few times, then end on:
