G
I've never been
C
The ordinary man
G
The world begin
D C G
Like every story does, my friend
G
I won't come down
C
To where I was back then
G
And nice mirage of love
D C G D G
Has matter single in my heart, my friend
Em
But when the white fog descends
C
Over the meadows of light
Em
And when the milking way descends
C
And shatters the meadows of light
G D
It's time to stand up, stand up and walk
C G
Walk all alone, down the same road
C G
I could feel again
C G
'Cause I long for the answers lost
C Em
And I'd change everything
C D G
If I could have a lapse in time
C G
And I could feel again
C G
Before going insane for good
C Em
I would change all mistakes of mine
C D G
With just a lapse in time
