Capo in 6th fret

Intro:
G+G

Verse 1:
G+G
 The same lie everyday
G+G               E minorEm       D MajorD
 Another smile I will fake playing along, playing along

Verse 2:
G+G
 I fall asleep when I wake up
G+G              E minorEm         D MajorD
 and in my dreams I'll be painting the world, painting the world

Pre-chorus:
C majorC                   D MajorD
 A augmentedA world I've built with immense care a parallell universe where
E minorEm                   C majorC
 The thought of boredom is too abstract
C majorC             D MajorD
 A augmentedA contrast to the trivial when everyday seem to feel like
E minorEm               C majorC
 A augmentedA staged scene in a photograph

Chorus:
           G+G
These pictures come life
         C majorC     D MajorD
When they're portraying you
               G+G
Yeah, these pictures come to life
         C majorC        D MajorD
Dreams make their way into reality

Verse 3:
G+G
 I used to wish for a plane
G+G              E minorEm        D MajorD
 To come and take me away into the clouds, into the clouds

Verse 4:
G+G
 Longing to make my escape
G+G              E minorEm          D MajorD
 I was afraid I'd stay still on the ground, still on the ground

Pre-chorus:
C majorC                 D MajorD
 You say “Paint over the gray sky when everyday seem to feel like
E minorEm               C majorC
 A augmentedA staged scene in a photograph”

Yeah, these pictures come to life
         C majorC        D MajorD
Dreams make their way into reality
