[Intro] G D C G D Bm C [Verse 1]
A                    E                     D
My whole life's been filled with songs and dreams

A               E                  D
When I was a child I had a time machine

Bm                                E
Little did I know it would go too fast

Bm                                         D    C             A
Little did I know it could see the Future.  (riff1)     But not the past
[Verse 2]
A              E              D
Leave it all behind Come what may

A                     E              D
Always thought I'd be comin' home someday

Bm                             E
Little did I know that life is hard

Bm                                   D    C              A
Here I am, now, starin' out a window  (riff1)     In my own backyard
[Chorus]
G                D             Em
Is there any comfort to be derived?

                  C
In knowin' that most of our lives

G                D                     C
Can never be the same, Can never go back home

G                         D          Em
And those that count out lucky I guess

            C
Can somehow escape from this mess

G              D                  Bm   C
Me I can only do it in dreams and songs

[Verse 3]
A              E                   D
Tryna fill a hole while runnin' a race

A               E             D
Leave some even bigger empty space

Bm                               E
But a movin' target is harder to kill

Bm                                 D   C             A
Never was one for takin' the easy  (riff1)       I'm standin' still
G D Em C G D C G D Em C G D Bm C [Verse 4]
A            E            D
Nowadays I'm by myself again

A                    E              D
Throwin' stones and caution to the wind

Bm                                   E
Nothing's really changed but the scenery

Bm                          D   C                              A
Starin' into my child's eyes     I realize what it all means to me
[Chorus]
G                D             Em
Is there any comfort to be derived?

                  C
In knowin' that most of our lives

G                D                     C
Can never be the same, Can never go back home

G                         D          Em
And those that count out lucky I guess

            C
Can somehow escape from this mess

G              D                  Bm   C
Me I can only do it in dreams and songs

Can never be the same, Can never go back home
