Verse 1:

BB
Visions of you dance through my head
Dark heroine of the books I have read
E MajorE         F#F#       BB
Pages torn out, I made up my own world
BB
Deep in the dream, it's all built to last
You pull the plug, drain me down fast
E MajorE         F#F#        BB
Pop my balloon, I fell from a great high


Pre-Chorus 1:

             AbmAbm
And I'm tired of wasting life
     F#F#     E MajorE
Searching out going around
    F#F#        E MajorE
What became such a false alarm


Chorus:

              AbmAbm
'Cause I'm looking for the truth
     F#F#       E MajorE
Not some tired cheap cliché
   F#F#          E MajorE    F#F#  BB
False treasure in a shallow pond
BB
Alright

(see tab above)

Verse 2:

BB
Fireworks blew out the top of your head
Powder and spark drew me to bed
E MajorE              F#F#       BB
Drift with you there down a dark and frozen stream
BB
I thought I'd found jewel of the Nile
You're just a shiny rock in my pile
E MajorE        FF      BB
So many stones, stuck in my shoes


Pre-Chorus 2:

           AbmAbm
And I know if there's enough
     F#F#    E MajorE
It could make up a road
      F#F#          E MajorE
That could lead me far from this town


Chorus:

              AbmAbm
'Cause I'm looking for the truth
     F#F#       E MajorE
Not some tired cheap cliché
   F#F#          E MajorE    F#F#  BB
False treasure in a shallow pond


Pre-Chorus 1:

             AbmAbm
And I'm tired of wasting life
     F#F#     E MajorE
Searching out going around
    F#F#         E MajorE
What became such a false alarm


Outro:

F#F#       E MajorE
Just a false alarm
F#F#       E MajorE
Just a false alarm
F#F#       E MajorE
Just a false alarm
F#F#    E MajorE
A augmentedA false alarm


F#F#   E MajorE
