E (Play Riff 2 continuously)
Woke up today
To everything gray
And all that I saw
Just kept going on and on
[Chorus]
Aadd9 F#m11 E (Riff 2 x2)
Sweep all the pieces under the bed
Aadd9 F#m7
Close all the curtains and cover my head
Bsus4 Bsus4/A
And what you wish for won't come true
Bsus4/G# Bsus4/F# E
You aren't surprised love, are you?
[Riff 3]

[Verse 2]
E (Play Riff 2 continuously)
If this serenade
(Repeat after me)
(Just a little bit closer)
Is not what you want
(Do what is sane)
(Caught up in a lie)
It's just how it is
(Won't change a thing)
(Got a little bit colder)
It keeps going on and on
[Chorus]
Aadd9 F#m11 E (Riff 2 x2)
Come out, come out wherever you are
Aadd9 F#m11
Would you do it all over right from the start?
Bsus4 Bsus4/A
And what you wish for won't come true
Bsus4/G# Bsus4/F# E
You aren't surprised love, are you?
[Riff 3] x1
Bsus4 Bsus4/A
So what you wish for won't come true
Bsus4/G# Bsus4/F# E
You aren't surprised love, are you?

D (With Riff 4)
Once had this dream
A
Crashed down in oz
[Riff 4]
D (With Riff 4)
Not black and white
B
But where the colors are
B
I never dreamed that
E
I would let it go
