[INTRO]

E E6 E E6 E6 E6 ?2

[VERSE 1]

E                    E6
As I look out at the window,
E                     E6
The first thing that I see
E                   E6
Is a shadow-like reflection
B
Looking back at me.
B7
Cause all the lights are turned on
And the night is dark outside,
F#m
The window's like a mirror
                A       E  E6  E  E6
For the things I keep inside.

[VERSE 2]

E                    E6
I feel scared of how I blend in
E                       E6
With the silence of the night;
E                     E6
The curtains start to move
      B
As I pull them from the right,
B7
And closing off the image
Of the ghost that looks like me
   F#m
I wonder if the man I am
    A            E  E6  E  E6
Is all I'll ever be

[CHORUS 1]

E            E6   Emaj7
Cause I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
Me and my guitar
       A
In a chauffeur-driven car
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way...
E          E6   Emaj7
Yet I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
But I guess for most of us
              A
It's just a chauffeur-driven bus,
           E  E6  E  E6
What can I say?


[VERSE 3]

E                    E6
And sunny days are plenty,
E                   E6
I feel lucky to be here.
E                       E6
The girl that sleeps beside me
B
Gets more pretty every year.
B7
But every now and then
A cloudy day comes by,
F#m
Something I remember
       A              E  E6  E  E6
But I can't remember why.

[CHORUS 2]:

E            E6   Emaj7
Cause I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
Me and my guitar
           A
They'd be handing out cigars
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way...
E            E6   Emaj7
Yet I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
But I guess when I will come,
              A
It's just an evening down the pub,
           E  E6  E  E6
What can I say?

[VERSE 4]

E                                 E6
And there's one more thing that strikes me
E                   E6
As I put away this song -
E                      E6
That's just no way to tell
B
If you chose right or you chose wrong.
B7
So look at your reflection
In the window if you can,
F#m
And try to see the world outside,
       A             E  E6  E  E6
You'll be the bigger man.


[CHORUS 1]

E            E6   Emaj7
Cause I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
Me and my guitar
       A
In a chauffeur-driven car
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way...
E          E6   Emaj7
Yet I used to dream
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day,
F#m
But I guess for most of us
              A
It's just a chauffeur-driven bus,
           E  E6  E  E6
