Let me tell you about a place that
                D
I've been before
  Bm                                 D
    It lies behind that old locked door
          Bm                            D
 Yeah it looks like a page out of   paradise
        Bm                           D
But only  half as good at twice the price

Chorus:

Yeah and I laugh
           E
What will become
     A                              E
And a smile at the way things have gone
   G                         A
Try to lift the man up from his knees

Try to find the forest for the trees

 I believe he lived next door to you
 Bm                                    D
Well he was cooled up tight inside his shell
 Bm
And then one day the actress fell

Chorus:

D         A
 Yeah and  I laughed
                E
And what would become
 A                                E
And smile at the way things have gone

Try to pull the man up from his knees

Try to find the forest for the trees

Bm  D                       Bm

About the sweetest spot in its early prime
      Bm                      D
If the   memory is  all you lack
    Bm                Bm                   D
Just  open your eyes cause you can never go back

Chorus:

Yeah and I laugh
              E
At what will become
       A                            E
And I smile at the way things have gone
 G                           A
Try to pick the man up from his knees

Try to find the forest for the trees
