[Intro]
---------------------
C#m | E | D# | A | C | B | C#m | E | D# | A | C | B 
C#m | E | D# | A | C | B 
C#m | E | D# 
A C  B       C#m           F#m
   I think I know what you mean

[Verse 1]
---------------------
         G#m         E
but watch   what you say
                 C#m       F#m
cause they'll be trying to knock
        G#m        E
you down   in some way
              C#m            F#m
Some times it feels like the world
       G#m  E
is falling asleep
           C#m           F#m
How do you wake some one up 
       G#m    E
from inside a dream
                C#m        F#m
Your mind would wander and search
             G#m       E
for its place   in the night
          C#m          F#m
Your body followed this   feeling
     G#m       E
like following light
               C#m
Once that your music was born
F#m        G#m         E
it followed   you round
            C#m         F#m      G#m        E
and then it gave your activities meaning and
           F#m
let you be loud

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
          G#m             A
You're sad   but you smile
         E
It's not in your eyes
F#m             G#m
   Your eyeballs   won't change
    A                            E
It's the muscles around your eyes

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G#m                   E
   An egg to fertilize
G#m                    E
   A pulse to stabilize
G#m                   E
   A body to deodorize
G#m                    E
   A life to scrutinize
G#m                    E
   A child to criticize
G#m                         E
   Young adults to modernize
G#m                     E
   Citizens to terrorize
G#m
   Generations to desensiti

[Solo]
---------------------
C#m | F#m | B   | E | C#m | F#m | B | E 
C#m | F#m | B   | E | C#m | F#m | B | E 
C#m | F#m | G#m | E | C#m | F#m 
G#m E                C#m         F#m
     Your dreams are sweet and obsessed

[Verse 2]
---------------------
          G#m    E
and you're   overworked
           C#m      F#m
You're overtaken by visions
        G#m    E
of being   overlooked
         C#m
How disappointed would
F#m
D(ead) I(dealistic) D(esperate)
          G#m                         E
I(nventor)   P(ioneer) P(hilosophers) be
            C#m         F#m
to see such power n'our hands
      G#m     E
all wasted on greed
       C#m        F#m
Am I a prisoner to   instincts
   G#m           E
or do my thoughts just live
   C#m        F#m
as free and detached
         G#m        E
as boats to the dock
               C#m       F#m
Just like when music was born
            G#m          E
and detached   from your heart
C#m         F#m             G#m         E
Is your free   time to free minds or for
         F#m
falling apart

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
      G#m
Night after night
A         E
 you turn out the light
F#m              G#m             A
   You don't fall   asleep right away
                  E
Are we are we done

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
G#m                  E
   A desk to organize
G#m                      E
   A product to advertise
G#m                      E
   A market to monopolize
G#m                   E
   Movie stars to idolize
G#m                     E
   Leaders to scandalize
G#m                     E G#m
   Enemies to neutralize
                    E
No time to apologize
G#m                   E
   Fury to tranquilize
G#m                      E
   Weapons to synchronize
G#m
   Cities to vapori
