Capo on 1st fret
Like a drGeam but I know its rHmeal
I pretGend life is just a gHmame
It's a lGie, it's a lie to Hmme
In my mGind I pretend and I can't fHmeel anymF#more
I see the storm is coming dHmown
It's coming down from the stormy clGouds
Wishing all my dreams come trDue
But wF#mait what I need is something Hmelse
And I know that it takes some tGime
Making all my dreams come trDue
Well at fGirst we were all the sHmame
Can we stGay, can I play this life agHmain anymF#more
I see the storm is coming Hmdown
It's coming down from the stormy clGouds
Wishing all my dreams come trDue
But wF#mait what I need is something Hmelse
And I know that it takes some tGime
Making all my dreams come trDue

Capo on 1st fret

G Hm

Like a dream but I know its real

G Hm

I pretend life is just a game

G Hm

It's a lie, it's a lie to me

G Hm F#m

In my mind I pretend and I can't feel anymore

I see the storm is coming down

It's coming down from the stormy clouds

Wishing all my dreams come true

F#m Hm

But wait what I need is something else

And I know that it takes some time

Making all my dreams come true

G Hm

Well at first we were all the same

G Hm F#m

Can we stay, can I play this life again anymore

I see the storm is coming down

It's coming down from the stormy clouds

Wishing all my dreams come true

F#m Hm

But wait what I need is something else

And I know that it takes some time

Making all my dreams come true
