[Intro]
| E5 | E5 |
[Verse 1]
Em Am Sunset over the high-rise, Em C by a motorway Em Am A little man looks up at the sky, Em C an uneventful end to a wasted day
[Chorus] (Guitar part *)
Em Close-up on the man at the window, C Looking at the street down below Am It's obvious he's got things on his mind Em (A5 D5 E5) He shakes his head, pulls down the blind
[Verse 2]
Em Am He start's writing a letter, Em C to make it perfectly clear Em Am He's just a man who's reached the end of his rope, Em C expressing his doubts and his fears
[Chorus] (Guitar part *)
Em In a world, feels so lonely and afraid C Disillusioned by the promises they made Am It's a pity that it ended up this way Em (A5 D5 E5) Life is just a cliché
[Verse 3]
Em Am I'm gonna do tomorrow, Em C what I did yesterday Em Am It's such a dull routine, somebody cut this scene Em It's such a boring cliché
[Bridge]
C F Live life, day to day C F Seems so passé C F Everything you hear and say C F Just another cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am Like an actor on a movie screen F Living out someone else's dream Dm Living out a total misconception Am Am Reality, a false perception
[Verse 4]
Em Am Whoa .. It's such a wasted life Em C Whoa .. Without any conclusion Em Am Em Whoa ..
[Bridge]
C F Days drift into days C F His life just slips away C F People so blasé C F Everything's a cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am F Yes it is Dm Yes it is Am Just an illusion Am (A5 D5 Em) Just an illusion
[Verse 5]
Em Am Moonlight over the high-rise, Em C at the end of the day Em Am The little man is asleep in his bed, Em C tucked up, safely away
[Spoken]
Am F In his dreams he's taken away by alien beings to another galaxy Dm Deep in space, to a planet where a man can live out his fantasies, Am Am C C and experience unimaginable pleasures Em But morning comes and soon the realities of life will Em (E5 G5 A5) Shatter his illusions, Am and the cliches of the world will bring him down, Am but still he's waiting for a change
[Bridge]
C F Days drift into days C F His life just slips away C F Everything is passé C F Everything's a cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am F Yes it is Dm Yes it is Am Just an illusion Am (A5 D5 Em) Just an illusion F Yes it is Dm Em E Yes it is Am See the sunlight over the motorway F The little man, with anger in his eyes Dm Stands by the window, looks at the sky
