Strum

D-DU-UDU

I saw the autumn leaves

Peel up off the street

Take wing on the balmy breeze

And sweep you off your feet

And you blushed as they scooped you up

On sugar maple wings

To gaze down on the city below

Ablaze with wondrous things

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

I wouldn't wanna live there

Weighed down by heavy lids

And lunar lullabies

I knew you were wide awake

'Cause you smile with your eyes

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

From the green belt balcony

The wildfires look so pretty

Ponderosa canopy

I'd never leave if it were up to me

To the ruby redwood tree

And to the velvet climbing ivy

Painted all mahogany

I'd never leave if it were up to me

(If it were up to me)

With a starry brush

Paint the dusk venetian blue

'Cause in the evening hush

You'll never believe the view

And when the leaves return

And their whisperings fill the night

They'll freeze and burn

Where fire and ice collide

Can you feel a silk embrace

In the satin air?

If we dissolve without a trace

Will the real world even care?

Downy feathers kiss your face

And flutter everywhere

Reality is a lovely place

But I wouldn't wanna live there

I wouldn't wanna live there

I saw the autumn leaves

Peel up off the street

Take wing on the balmy breeze

And sweep you off your feet...

Met a girl in the parking lot

And all I did was say hello

Her pepper spray made it rather hard

For me to walk her home

But I guess thats the way it goes

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye

Didnt you know love could shine this bright

Well smile because youre the deer in the headlights

Met a girl with a graceful charm

But when beauty met the beast, he froze

Got the sense I was not her type

By black eye and bloody nose

But I guess thats the way it goes

Its suffocating to say

But the female mystique takes my breath away

So give me a smile or give me a sneer

Cause Im trying to guess here

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye

Didnt you know love could shine this bright

Im sorry I ever tried (deer in the headlights)

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye

Didnt you know love could shine this bright

If life was a game, you would never play nice

If love was a beam, youd be blind in both eyes

Put your sunglasses on cause youre a deer in the headlights

(Youre the deer in the headlights)

End on D

A - Em - G - D X2 (Wake me if you're out there!)

Through the glass in my bedroom window,

In the bushes far below,

I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow,

Among the ones I so clearly know.

I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged,

With a note on the rocking chair,

That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved,

So wake me if you're out there.

Living close to the ground,

It's seventh heaven because there are angels all around,

Among my frivolous thoughts,

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts.

So wake me if you're out there!

(Repeat intro, verse, bridge and chorus)

I keep my knees black and blue 'cause they often hit the hardwood floor,

(Wake me if you're out there),

And I believe, so I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore.

(Repeat bridge, and then play the chorus TWICE)

So if you're dying to see,

.... (Hold)

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity

x2):

Splashdown in the silver screen

Into a deep dram-atic scene

I swim through the theatre

Or maybe I'm just a dreamer!

Like a kite in the bright midday

Wonder stole my breath away

Shy sonata for Mercury

The stars always sing so pretty

This picnic will soon depart

Real life, I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

Dreams don't turn to dust

as verse 1):

I made for the countryside

And my eyes never grew so wide

Apple, raspberry, river blue

I don't wanna leave without you

In the sound I'll gladly drown

Into the emerald underground

And I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see

Surrounded by all this beauty

This picnic will soon depart

Real life, I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

Instrumental and vocals:

I'm sad to see you go

I'd rather be alone

When tiger eyes begin making you blush!

When diamonds boast that they can't be crushed

Let 'em go 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

x2):

Dreams don't turn to dust

And rest assured cause dreams don't turn to dust!

chords):

Dont remind me that somedays Im a windshield

And other days Im just a lucky bug

As cold iron rails

Leave old mossy trails through the countryside

The crow and the bean field

Are my best friends but boy I need a hug (boy I need a hug)

Cause my heart stops without you

Theres somethin about you that makes me feel alive

If the green left the grass on the other side

I would make like a tree and leave

But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide

Who knew the other side could be so green

Dont remind me, Im a chickadee in love with the sky

But thats clearly not a lot to crow about

Cause when the stars silhouette me

Im scared theyll forget me, and flicker out

I taste honey but I havent seen the hive

Yeah I didnt look, I didnt even try

But still my heart stops without you

Cause of something about you that makes me feel alive

(Ooooooh) We are the honey and the bee (Ooooooh)

Backyard of butterflies, surrounded me

And I fell in love with you, like bees to honey

So lets up and leave the weeping to the willow tree

And pour our tears in the sea

I swear, theres a lot of vegetables out there, that crop up for air

And yet I never thought, we were two peas in a pod

Till you suddenly bloomed and I knew

That Id always love you

Oh Ill always love you too

If the green left the grass on the other side

I would make like a tree and leave

But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide

Who knew the other side could be so green

And if I reached for your hand for the rest of my life

Who knew the other side could be so green

End on C

x3): ( the last time)

The princess in her flower bed

Pulled the jungle under-ground

Where cherry bombs stain the blackbirds red

And explosions never make a sound

(Oh comet come down!)

Kamikaze over me

(And I come alive!)

My midnight melody

(Oh comet come down!)

My captain on a snowy horse

Is coming back to take me home

(He's coming back to take me home!)

He'll find me fighting back a terrible force

'Cause I'm not afraid to die alone

(Oh comet come down!)

Kamikaze over me

(And I come alive!)

My midnight melody!

(Oh comet come down!)

Kamikaze over me

(And I come alive!)

My midnight melody

(Oh comet come down!)

(Oh comet come - oh comet come down!)

(Brave down the open road!)

Maybe I'll ride

(And fight back the undertow!)

To save my life!

(Breathe in the ember glow!)

Maybe I'll fly

(And rove where you want to go!)

With the eagle eye

Eagle eye, Eagle eye, Eagle eye, Eagle eye

x2):

Call back the cap-com

Tick off the time-bomb

Let felicity fly

Armour the airlock

Blanket the bedrock

And kiss the planet goodbye

Dear God, I was terribly lost

When the galaxies crossed

And the Sun went dark

Dear God, You're the only North Star

I would follow this far

x2):

Back to Intro

Fight back the flight deck

Bring on the breakneck

Cue the solar eclipse

Summit the sunset

Dubtail the dragnet

And blow your backbone to bits

x2)

Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope

Lest I blink and be swept off the narrow road

Hercules, you've got nothing to say to me

Cause you're not the blinding light that I need

For He is the saving grace of the galaxies

(Galaxies, galaxies, galaxies, galaxies)

He is the Saving grace of the galaxies

Chorus and instrumental (x2)

I sur-vived a dreadful accident

In the car crash of the cen-tury

My shattered hopes collapsed on cold cement

But in the back of the ambulance

I'd never felt so content

A high-speed collision gave

A new sense of sight to me

And now my vision can render the scene

A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris

Happiness returned to me

Through a grave emergency

Da da da, da da daaaa

x2):

as verse 1):

I tossed and turned, in sterile apathy

Until the violets arrived for me

The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room

And the police got smaller as they grew taller

And taught me to bloom

The curtains decayed

the daylight poured in

I was never a-fraid of the darkness again

My burns were third de-gree

But I'd been set free

'Cause grace had finally found its way to me

A high-speed collision gave

A new sense of sight to me

And now my vision can render the scene

A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris

Happiness returned to me

(Da da da, da da daaa)

Happiness returned to me

(Da da da, da da daaa)

Happiness returned to me

Through a grave emergency

Da da da, da da daaaa

(Through a grave emergency)

Da da da, da da daaaa

Happi-ness returned to me

Through a grave emergency

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Uh uh, thats not a plane, thats me

Im sittin where Im supposed to

Floatin on the cloud, cant nobody come close to

The concrete and the sky switch places

So now my ceiling is painted with cosmic spaces

Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut

Blastin off like a rocket from the ground up

Heh, I used to catch a cab on the Monday

Now the taxis sellin lights on the runway, fly

Condo on the milky way

A house on the cloud and Gods my landlord

And for my rent all I pay is my drive

Got that so If you need me you can find me in the alligator sky

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

I'm drowning in this starry serenade

Where ecstasy becomes cavalier

My imagination's taking me away

Reverie whisper in my ear

I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

My imagination's taking me away

Uh, now Imma dance like I never dance

Sing like I never sing, dream like Ive never dreamed

Or try to, cause weve been lied to

That the sun is somethin that we cant fly to

Well, I sit on my star and see street lights

Look up, ha, youll miss me if you blink twice

Imagination is hot and if you got it you can meet me

When you see me in the alligator sky

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

(KEY CHANGE)

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

The alligator sky

My raw candy passion is bitter-sweet,

Onto the teeth,

'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate,

Than fall in love, especially with me.

I stood under the waterfall,

With a kiwi pineapple parasol,

As Cinderella dropped the crystal ball,

And made a concrete cavern of caterpillar concert hall.

I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever,

In deep blue seas of paper maché,

(Let's dance in the moonlight!)

A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,

Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,

(And dance in the moonlight!)

When we join The Yacht Club.

I would rather go swimming with great white sharks,

Than wade in romance,

'Cause I can never find the courage to ask her to dinner, or even to dance,

Don't sweat under your overcoat,

'Cause my heart can't hover this paddle boat,

You'll hit the bottom of the highest note,

And the chatty tree frogs will never wanna leave your throat.

I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever,

In deep blue seas of paper maché,

(Let's dance in the moonlight!)

A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,

Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,

(And dance in the moonlight!)

When we join The Yacht Club.

(Let go of the world you know,

And plug in the party lights)

Soak your cares in the solar flares,

That light up these island nights,

(Orange eclipse, I can taste your lips,

In the citrus afternoon)

If you can fly, don't stop at the sky,

'Cause there's footprints on the Moon.

(It was you...)

epeat]

I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever,

In deep blue seas of paper maché,

(Let's dance in the moonlight!)

A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,

Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,

(And dance in the moonlight!)

When we join The Yacht Club.

(Let's dance in the moonlight!)

When we join The Yacht Club.

I saw a ghost on the stairs

And sheets on the tables and chairs

The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink

Even so, I don't know what to think

I've been longing for

Daisies to push through the floor

And I wish plant life would grow all around me

So I won't feel dead anymore

I saw a bear in the den

Reading my textbooks again

That bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic

Heaven knows, I could really use a friend

I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest

The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time

Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus

If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?

x2):

I've been longing for

Daisies to push through the floor

And I wish plant life would grow all around me

So I won't feel dead anymore

Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet

And give me a ghost of a smile

Show me your teeth 'cause you're teddy beneath

So just grin and bear it a while

Just grin and bear it a while

I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest

The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time

Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus

If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?

x2):

To-night I'm busting out

Of this old haunted house

'Cause I'm sick of waiting for

All the spider webs to grow all around me

'Cause I don't feel dead anymore

And I'm not afraid anymore

I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest

The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time

Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus

If I were to pluck on their heartstrings would you strum on mine?

June was the lobster shell

I dug by hand

A haven that hid me well

Beneath the sand

The white windy waves washed in

But I stayed dry

The great breakers broke again

'Cause I'm on and off inside

And then, when the empress run aground

And my eyes turned blue and green

I heard a gorgeous sound

And that's when it became a dream

When the sky fell in

When the hurricanes came for me

I could finally crash again

And that's how I became the sea

same as verse 1):

I wrenched the engines off

And dragged them down

The depths turned the iron soft

As they swiftly drowned

And I brought the ocean side

To its rusty knees

As I felt the even tide

Deep in my shallow dreams

And then, when the empress run aground

And my eyes turned blue and green

I heard a gorgeous sound

And that's when it became a dream

When the sky fell in

When the hurricanes came for me

I could finally crash again

And that's how I became the sea

x2):

(When the sky fell in)

When the sky fell in

(When the sky fell in)

When the hurricanes came for me

I could finally crash again

And that's how I became the sea

(How I became the sea)

That's how I became the sea

(How I became the sea)

That's how I became the sea

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Remember to breathe because it'll take your breath away

When the engines cough, and you blast off

Ignite the night with a firecracker flash

Remember to live 'cause you're gonna be thrilled to death

When the stars collide and your eyes grow wide

Take it in with your breath against the glass

Remember to dream because it's gonna be a starry night

Over every town if you look down

So harmonize with the singing satellites

Remember to scream because you're gonna be lost for words

When the sparks erupt and they light you up

Dip your toes in the galaxy 'cause it's yours to explore tonight

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

I'm drowning in this starry serenade

Where ecstasy becomes cavalier

My imagination's taking me away

Reverie whisper in my ear

I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid

Rollercoaster through the atmosphere

My imagination's taking me away

Let's hear it for the Universe

Where it never hurts

Diving in head-first

Take a taste of the melting milky Way

And remember to laugh 'cause you're living in a crazy world

Where you'll never guess what could happen next

Give the outer limits my regards as you float to fly away

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

(KEY CHANGE)

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky

Even though I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never letting go I'm never letting go

The alligator sky

Symphony of silver tears

&8232;

Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears

&8232;

Overcast these gloomy nights wear on

But I'm holding fast because it's darkest just before the dawn&8232;

I sang my princess fast asleep

'Cause she was my dream come true

Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you

But now those lonely lullabies

Just dampen my tired eyes

Because I can't forget you

&8232;

I'll dissolve when the rain pours in

&8232;

When the nightmares take me

I will scream with the howling wind

'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream

Dizzy love turned a star lily pink

And hung above our lids too flushed to blink

But icy blue froze the fairytale cold

Though I treasured you and you sparkled with someone to hold&8232;

"And I'd rather dream" after the first part)

Annmarie, I'll never forget you

Annmarie, (remember me) I'll never forget you

as verse 1):
I made for the countryside
And my eyes never grew so wide
Apple, raspberry, river blue
I don't wanna leave without you
In the sound I'll gladly drown
Into the emerald underground
And I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see
Surrounded by all this beauty

[A] This picnic will [Bm]soon depart  [G]
Real life, I'm [D]sad to see you go
[A] I'll miss you with [Bm]all my heart
But [G]I'd rather be[D] alone

The sunsets that [D]dazzle in the dusk
[A] So I'll drag the [Bm]anchor up
And [G]rest assured, 'cause [A]dreams don't turn to dust!

chords): [C]  [F]

Dont rem[C]ind me that somedays Im a windshi[F]eld
And other days Im just a lucky b[C]ug

As cold iron rails
Leave [Dm]old mossy tr[Em]ails through the c[F]ountrys[G]ide [C]

T[C]he crow and the bean fi[F]eld
Are my best friends but boy I need a h[C]ug (boy I need a hug)

Cause my heart stops without you
Theres s[Dm]omethin ab[Em]out you that m[F]akes me fe[G]el al[F]ive

I[F]f the green left the gr[G]ass on the [Am]other side
[F]I would make like a [G]tree and le[C]ave
[F]But if I reached for your h[G]and would your [Am]eyes get wide
[F]Who knew the other side could b[G]e so gr[C]een

Dont remi[C]nd me, Im a chickadee in love with the sk[F]y
But thats clearly not a lot to crow abo[C]ut

Cause when the stars silhouette me
Im sc[Dm]ared theyll for[Em]get me, and fl[F]icker [G]ou[C]t

I[C] taste honey but I havent seen the h[F]ive
Yeah I didnt look, I didnt even tr[C]y

But still my heart stops without you
Cause of s[Dm]omething ab[Em]out you that m[F]akes me fe[G]el al[F]ive

[Am](Ooo[G]ooo[F]h) We are the honey and the bee [Am](Ooo[G]ooo[F]h)
[Em]Backyard of b[F]utterfl[G]ies, surrounded me
[Em]And I fell in l[F]ove with y[G]ou, like bees to honey
[Em]So lets up and le[F]ave the we[G]eping to the w[Am]illow tree
[Em]And pour our te[F]ars in the s[G]ea
I [Dm]swe[C]ar[G], theres a lot of vegetables out th[F]ere, that cr[Am]op up for a[G]ir
And yet I n[Dm]ever th[C]ou[G]ght, we were two peas in a p[F]od
Till you s[Am]uddenly blo[G]omed and I knew
That [F]Id always l[Am]ove yo[G]u
Oh [F]Ill always l[Am]ove you t[G]oo

[F]If the green left the gr[G]ass on the [Am]other side
[F]I would make like a [G]tree and le[C]ave
[F]But if I reached for your h[G]and would your [Am]eyes get wide
[F]Who knew the other side could b[G]e so gr[Am]een
[F]And if I reached for your h[G]and for the r[Am]est of my life
[F]Who knew the other side could b[G]e so gr[C]een

I sur-[B]vived a dreadful accident[Abm]
In the c[E]ar crash of the [Abm]cen-tury[F#]
My shattered [B]hopes collapsed on cold cemen[Abm]t
But in the back of the [E]ambulance
I'd never f[B]elt so content[F#]

A [C#m]high-speed collision gave
A [B]new sense of s[F#]ight to me
[C#m]   And now my vision can [Abm]render the s[F#]cene
[C#m]   A blurry image of [B]wreckage and [F#]roadside debris
[E] Happiness returned to m[F#]e

I tossed and turned, in sterile apathy
Until the violets arrived for me
The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room
And the police got smaller as they grew taller
And taught me to bloom

[A] The curtains decayed
[E] the daylight poured in[G]
I was never a-[D]fraid of the darkness a[A]gain
My burns were third de-[E]gree
But I'd been set f[B]ree
'Cause grace had finally found its [F#]way to me

When the sp[G]arks erupt and they light [D]you up
[A]    Dip your toes in the gal[Em]axy 'cause it's yo[G]urs to explore ton[D]ight

Where was [G]I when the rocket[D]s came to l[A]ife
And carr[Em]ied you aw[G]ay into the all[D]igator sk[A]y
[Em]   Even th[G]ough I'll never know [D]what's up ahe[A]ad
I'm neve[Em]r letting g[G]o I'm neve[D]r letting [A]go       [Em]

[A]Rollercoaster through the at[Em]mosphere
I'm d[G]rowning in this starry[D] serenade
Where [A]ecstasy becomes cav[Em]alier
My im[G]agination's tak[D]ing me away
[A]Reverie whisper in [Em]my ear
I'm sc[G]ared to death that I'll never[D] be afraid
[A]Rollercoaster through the at[Em]mosphere
My im[G]agination's ta[D]king me away

[A]   Let's hear it for the U[Em]niverse
Where it n[G]ever hurts
Diving in h[D]ead-first
[A]   Take a taste of the me[Em]lting milky Wa[G]y
[D]   And remember to la[A]ugh 'cause you're living in a cra[Em]zy world
Where you'll n[G]ever guess what could happ[D]en next
[A]   Give the outer limits my [Em]regards as yo[G]u float to fly aw[D]ay

Where was [G]I when the rocket[D]s came to l[A]ife
And carr[Em]ied you aw[G]ay into the all[D]igator sk[A]y
[Em]   Even th[G]ough I'll never know [D]what's up ahe[A]ad
I'm neve[Em]r letting g[G]o I'm never[D] letting g[A]o

(KEY CHANGE)

Where was [A]I when the rocke[E]ts came to life[B]
And carr[F#m]ied you awa[A]y into the all[E]igator sk[B]y
[F#m]   Even th[A]ough I'll never know[E] what's up ahea[B]d
I'm neve[F#m]r letting g[A]o I'm neve[E]r letting g[B]o     [F#m]

[D]Symphony of s[Am]ilver te[G]ars
[D]                         [C]          [G]&
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears
[D]                      [Am]         [G]&
Overcast these gloomy nights wear on
But I'm h[D]olding fast because it's darkest j[C]ust before the d[G]awn&

[Am]I sang my pr[F]incess fast asl[C]eep
'Cause sh[G]e was my dream come tr[Am]ue
Oh Annmar[F]ie, believe m[C]e, I loved yo[G]u
[Am]But now those l[F]onely lullab[C]ies
Just d[G]ampen my tired e[Dm]yes
Because I c[F]an't forget yo[G]u
[Dm]Because I c[F]an't forget yo[G]u

[D]                       [Am]&
I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
[C]                    [G]&
When the nightmares take me
[D]I will scream with the h[Am]owling wind
[C]'Cause it's a bitter wo[G]rld and I'd rather dr[D]eam

[D]  [Am]  [C]  [G]  x2

Dizzy love turned a star lily pink
And hung above our lids too flushed to blink
But icy blue froze the fairytale cold
Though I treasured you and you sparkled with someone to hold&

"And I'd rather dream" after the first part)

[F]  [Am]   Annmar[G]ie,              I'll never forget yo[F]u
Annmar[Am]ie,  [G]                 I'll never forget yo[F]u
Annmar[Am]ie,  [G]   (remember me) I'll never forget yo[F]u
Annmar[Am]ie,  [G]   (remember me) I'll never forget yo[F]u
Annmar[Am]ie,  [G]   (remember me) I'll never forget you  [F]

End on [F]
