D                                  A
Wake up in the morning, you've got your arm around me

    Bm                             G
Get ready for home office, I drink coffee, you drink tea

      D                               A
I sit at the kitchen table and you're in your office room

Bm                                G
Joining separate meetings virtually on Teams and Zoom

Em                                A
Lunch we spend together, it's the best part of our day

  Em                 E7                 A              A7
Except for all those breaks in which we kiss boredome away
[Verse 2]
         D                         A
Now it's finally the weekend, what are we gonna do?

   Go for a hike again or try something new?

A hike it is, we get there and hold hands along the way

Stop to hug a couple times then call it a day

We go home and take a shower, then we cook our favorite meal

        Em                   E7           A             A7
But the twist of this whole story is that none of it is real
[Chorus]
            Bm
It's just a fantasy

        D
Of what we could be

   A
If you could see

             Bm       A       D  A
I'm made for you and you for me

    G                                  Bm
You said you didn't know if you could love me

A                              G
  And that's all that I had to hear
[Verse 3]
D                                 A
Now we're in our forties and it's time to buy a home

  Bm                                      G
A place out near the mountains where it's peaceful, we're alone

I'll miss my friends but I've still got my laptop and my phone

     Bm             Bm/A              G
It's time to settle down, I've always been a rolling stone

    Em                            A
Sometimes I ask myself if this is really how I feel

       Em             E7             A                A7
But it doesn't really matter because none of this is real
[Chorus]
            Bm
It's just a fantasy

        D
Of what we could be

   A
If you could see

             Bm       A       D  A
I'm made for you and you for me

    G                                  Bm
You said you didn't know if you could love me

A                              G
  And that's all that I had to hear
[Instrumental Break] Bm D A A/C# A Bm A D A/C# G Bm A F# [Bridge]
G
 But you still talk to me

A Bm
    It feeds my fantasy

     A                           Bm
I'll never get you out of my head

   A          D A
Until I'm dead

G
  It makes me wonder why

A Bm
I just can't simply say goodbye

  A                                     F#
I guess I just can't stand to leave the last vestige of hope to die
[Verse 4]
  D                         A
I sit in my apartment all alone and play guitar

       Bm                 Bm/A            G
Try to wake up from this dream and accept what we really are
