[Verse 1]
A
Don't listen to me, I only believe myself
A
So I'm going somewhere to do that alone
D
And then I see you, the light falls through the room
D
And all of it don't seem so hard
[Verse 2]
A
Do you ever get the sense
A
You're watching someone else?
D D
Your face against the glass, across 11th Ave
A A
Some people say they know, they never really know
D
They all wait for something
D
That never comes to them
[Chorus]
E
But all of these dreams
D A A
Keep coming back to me slowly, slowly
E
And sometimes I laugh
D A
When I think about how you know me
A
Yeah, you know me
[Verse 3]
A A
Wisdom comes to your heart, down a shaft from afar
D
Pulls you out of bed and into the noise
A
Whoever's up this late
A
You really still awake?
D
Why can't you go to sleep like everybody else?
[Chorus]
E
And all of these dreams
D A A
Keep coming back to me slowly, slowly
E
And sometimes I laugh
D A
When I think about how well you know me
A
Yeah, you know me
E
But all of these dreams
D A A
Keep coming back to me slowly, slowly
E
And sometimes I laugh
D A
When I think about how you know me
A
Yeah, you know me
E
But all of these dreams
D A A
Keep coming back to me slowly, slowly
E
And sometimes I laugh
D A
When I think about how you know me
A
Yeah, you know me
[Outro]
A D
When I woke up from that dream
D E7b11sus4
I was sleeping in a basement
A D
Leaves were falling on the pavement
D E7b11sus4
I was happy in the city
A D
Took a friend's car to the ocean
D
Are you ready?
E7b11sus4
Are you ready?
