Verse 1:
               E         A B C#m C# B
 My dream girl don't exist
A                      E            A B C#m C# B
At the age of five she slit her wrist
A                      B    E           A B C#m C# B
She didn't know that I'd be hangin around
A                         E           A B C#m C# B
So her parents buried her in the ground
A                        E            A B
And this day I can still hear the sound
C#m     B       A        E A B C#m C# B
Of  her life in outerspace

Verse 2:
A               E         A B C#m C# B
  My dream girl don't exist
A                       E     A B C#m C# B
It's just you and I and this TV
A                         E             A B C#m C# B
And this illness seems to feel so strange
A                       E          A B C#m C# B
Like a henchman that's about to hang
A                  E            A B
The moon up like a ball and chain
C#m B   A          E A B C#m C# B
And set its sands ablaaaaaaaaaaaze

Chorus:
E                         B
  And the weight is waiting ah
E                           A  B
  Feel the world so real and strong
E  B  C#m

Verse 3:
A               E         A B C#m C# B
  My dream girl don't exist
A                      E          A B C#m C# B
Just a photograph in a history book
A                       E            A B C#m C# B
And I believe she had a voice and name
A                     E            A B C#m C# B
Three children on the coast of Maine
A                 E       A B
Her life was in a hurricane
C#m B    A        E A B C#m C# B
Of  love and real embrace

Verse 4:
A               E         A B C#m C# B
  My dream girl don't exist
A                      E                A B C#m C# B
And at the age of five she slit her wrist
A                           E           A B C#m C# B
She didn't know that I'd be hangin around
A                     E            A B C#m C# B
So one day she took a stroll to town
A                        E             A B
And walked in front of a Greyhound bound
C#m B           A    E A B C#m C# B
For New York Central staaaaaaaaate

Chorus:
E                         B
  And the weight is waiting ah
E                         B
  And the weight is waiting ah
E                          A     B
  Feel the world so real and strong
B                                           E
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
