The Airborne Toxic Event – The Thing About Dreams (Guitar)

    C
Is that everything seems,
Like you're riding a wave.
[tab]                                  F  C
It's been forming all day in your mind.

C
The thing about time,

                                                  F
Days turn to weeks turn to years turn to infinite signs,

                      C
What you're leavin' behind.

        Am
And the hell with the rest,

    G
You gave them your best.

    F
You talk through your teeth

         G
And your hand.

     C
I've always believed

                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,

    Am
For my eyes.

      G
Let's stay the night.

                     F  G
We'll leave with the sunrise.

    C
The thing about me,

F               C
I, I wanna know why.

C
Turn in your sleep,

                                                 F
The things that you bury so deeply, discreetly inside.

       C
My, oh my.

        Am
And the hell with the words,

   G
Or haven't you heard?

F
Nobody says what they mean

                   G
'Til the second or third whiskey rye.

     C
I've always believed

                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,

    Am
For my eyes.

      G
Let's stay the night.

                     F  G
We'll leave with the sunrise.

    C
The thing about love,

                               F
And life's always calling your bluff.

           C
Enough is enough.

             Am
And when you sleep, you're alone.

         G
When you dream you're just one

     F
Of a million small pieces.

                          G
My darling I see you, I'm one.

     C
I've always believed

                           F
And hardly responsible for my life,

    Am
For my eyes.

             F
And now I've said too much,

    G
I'm not givin' up.

        F
I can't carry the weight

        G
Of this overfilled cup.

       F
I just close my eyes

            G
Like you're close to the touch

         C
And I'll dream, dream.
