E5C5D5E5D5E5 You, you're living your life when you're dreaming E5C5D5E5D5E5 Late at night you're hearing my voice in your head
-PRE-CHORUS-
G5A5 It's time you see what it's all about
G5A5B5 There's one cure and there's no way out

(Here you play the same open chords as in the intro chord sequence) EmCGD Let me hear you say yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) EmCGD Say yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
-BRIDGE-
F Who knows where we'll be in the morning CG I know we're here tonight CF Get uptight and it all gets so boring D It takes two to make you come alive CD Take my hand, kiss your fears goodbye CD There's something here that we can't deny
