Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Fill up your mind with  all it can know
 Don't forget  that your body will let  it all go
 Fill up your mind with  all it can know
What  would we be  without wishful  thinking?
chambers  of chains
 with  red plastic mouths
 the inside  of outside
 noone has found
 how to unring the  bell
 its just as well
 the  turntable sizzles
 the  casting of spells
 the  pressure devices
 hell in a nutshell
 is  any song worth singing
 if it  doesn't help?
 Fill up your mind with  all it can know
 don't forget  that your body will let  it all go
 fill up your mind with  all it can know
 'cos  what would love  be without  wishful thinking?
open  your arms
 as  far as they will go
 take off your dress
 an embarassing  poem
 was  written when i was alone
 in love with you
 i  shook down these lines
 to  shine up the streets
 i got  up off my hands and  knees
 to  thank my lucky stars
 that  you're not me
what  would we  be without  wishful thinking?
what  would we  be without wishful  thinking?
 what would we  be without wishful  thinking?
