Dream Theater – Space-Dye Vest (Guitar)

Dm
Falling through pages of Martens on angels

Bb
Feeling my heart pull west

Dm
I saw the future dressed as a stranger

Bb
Love in a space-dye vest

Dm
Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding

Bb
A pool in the shape of a heart

Dm
Beauty projection in the reflection

Bb
Always the worst way to start

Dm                                      C                                                                  Dm
"But he's the sort who can't know anyone intimately, least of all a woman. He doesn't know what a woman is.

                                                        C
He wants you for a possession, something to look at like a painting or an ivory box.

                               Dm/A                                                        C
Something to own and to display. He doesn't want you to be real, or to think, or to live.

                        Dm/A                                                                   Gm
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and feelings, even when I hold you in my arms.

             F           C/E
It's our last chance..."

Dm
Now that you're gone I'm trying to take it

Bb
Learning to swallow the rage

Dm
Found a new girl I think we can make it

Bb
As long as she stays on the page

Dm                               Bb  Gm
This is not how I want it to end

Dm                           Bb
And I'll never be open again

Dm                                          C
"...I was gonna move out...ummm...get, get a job, get my own place, ummm.

  Dm                                                                              C
But...I go into the mall where I want to work and they tell me, I'm, I was too young..."

                                                                             Dm/A
"Some people gave advice before about facing the facts, about facing reality.

                                                                                                 C
And this is, this without a doubt, is his biggest challenge ever. He's going to have to face it.

                                                                                                Dm/A
You're going to have to try, he's gonna to have to try and uh, and, and, and get some help here.

                                                              Gm
"That, so they say that, in ya know like, Houston or something, you'd say it's a hundred and eighty degrees.

           F                            C/E                  Dm
But it's a dry heat. In Houston they say that? Oh, maybe not. I'm all mixed up.

                                                C
Dry until they hit the swimming pool."

                                                 Bb
"I don't care what you do. I don't care when.

                                         C
That door gets locked. That door gets locked at night by nine o'clock.

                                            Bb
If you're not in this house by nine o'clock, then you'd better find some place to sleep.

                                         C                             Gm   C
Because you're not going to be a bum in this house. Supper is ready..."

        Dm
There's no one to take my blame

             Bb             Gm
If they wanted to

        Dm
There's nothing to keep me sane

          Bb                Gm
And it's all the same to you

        Dm
There's nowhere to set my aim

         Bb                Gm
So I'm everywhere

Dm
Never come near me again

         Bb                  Gm
Do you really think I need you?

     Dm
I'll never be open again

        Bb                 Gm
I could never be open again

     Dm
I'll never be open again

        Bb                 Gm
I could never be open again 

Dm             F                         Bb     Gm
    And I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend

Dm             F                 Bb     Gm
    And I'll never be open again

Dm             F                         Bb     Gm
    And I'll have no more dreams to defend

Dm             F                 Bb     Gm
    And I'll never be open again
