Geoff Tate:
E minorEm
The writing's on the wall
                 C majorC
Will you go on and fool yourself?

In no time you'??ll be done

       A minorAm
Refusing to adjust yourself to the flow

Why walk the stoney road?
         E MajorE
You won't get out alive

    E minorEm
Nobody understands it, do you?

Come in and look around:
    C majorC
Every single stroke, they say

Was worth the pain
       D MajorD
Now, in this gallery of wonder

You wonder what it's all about
             E MajorE
Well, selling sun in the rain!


Tobias Sammet:
 C majorC     G+G           A minorAm

  C majorC       D MajorD          E MajorE
Oh, we're gonna shove it down their throats

We're gilding their reality

Tobias Sammet:
 E minorEm
We gotta keep 'em dancing
              C majorC
While tears pour out of blackened skies

Another shade of drama

              A minorAm
Spectators weeping over cries
      A minorAm
That broken heroes
A minorAm
Drag from crazy minds
A minorAm
And by the way, now:

Both:
E minorEm
They who pay the piper call the tune at last

Tobias Sammet:
  C majorC
Knowing what you wanna give

And what is gonna do
 D MajorD
Feeding on desire

The spectres shall arise
              E MajorE
Right in front of their eyes

D MajorD
