Verse 1:
G#m
I'm woven in a fantasy
D#m/F#
I can't believe the things I see
F#
The path that I have chosen now
Bmaj7           Fm7b5/B
Has led me to a wall
Bmaj7                 Fm7b5/B
And with each passing day
Ebsus4/Bb                 Eb/Bb              Bbsus4      Bb
I feel a little more like something dear was lost


Pre-Chorus:
Bmaj7          C#/B
It rises now before me
Bmaj7             C#         Eb
A dark and silent barrier between


Chorus:
Fm7    Eb/G
All I am
Ebm/Gb               E            B
And all that I would ever want to be
B           C#    Eb
It's just a travesty

Fm7    Eb/G
Towering
Ebm/Gb          E             B
Marking off the boundaries my spirit
C#    Eb
Would erase


Verse 2:
G#m
To pass beyond is what I seek
D#m/F#
I fear that I may be too weak
F#
And those are few who've seen it through
Bmaj7                Fm7b5/B
To glimpse the other side
Bmaj7                Fm7b5/B
The promised land is waiting
Ebsus4/Bb             Eb/Bb        Bbsus4      Bb
Like a maiden that is soon to be a bride


Pre Chorus:
Bmaj7           C#/B
The moment is a masterpiece
Bmaj7         C#                  Eb
The weight of indecision's in the air


Chorus:
Fm7      Eb/G
Standing there
Ebm/Gb             E                 B
The symbol and the sum of all that's me
            C#    Eb
It's just a travesty

Fm7    Eb/G
Towering
Ebm/Gb           E                  B
Blocking out the light and blinding me
  C#      Eb
I want to see


Bridge:
       Bmaj7                                             F#add9/A#

Verse 3:
G#
Gold and diamonds cast a spell
D#m/F#
It's not for me, I know it well
F#
The riches that I seek are waiting
Bmaj7        Fm7b5/B
On the other side
Bmaj7                   Fm7b5/B
There's more than I can measure
Ebsus4/Bb               Eb/Bb           Bbsus4      Bb
In the treasures of the love that I can find


Pre Chorus:
Bmaj7                  C#/B
And though it's always been with me
Bmaj7                C#              Eb
I must tear down the wall and let it be


Chorus:
Fm7    Eb/G
All I am
Ebm/Gb             E             B
And all that I was ever meant to be
   C#   Eb
In harmony

Fm7     Eb/G
Shining true
Ebm/Gb              E               B
And smiling back at all who wait to cross
      C#    Eb
There is no loss

Outro:
Csus4      C
Ohhh
