verse 1 
C#m                         E                      B 
 I was away, I don't know where, it was a daily state 
                   F# 
I drew a map, but it expired 
C#m                         E                B 
 I'd find a car with open doors and take a ride 
                      F# 
I took a nap, there was no driver 
C#m                             E                        B 
 I'd find a thing that I could take that would do the trick 
                  F# 
After a while, I got no higher 

 
E             B 
Ride in the unknown

Why is never known

verse 2 
C#m                    E                 B 
 There is no getting away in a haunted house 
                  F# 
When every window is a mirror 
C#m                         E              B 
 Can't recognize the people who I used to be 
                     F# 
Alone at night in my private theater 
C#m                        E               B 
 But we all play a little bit with mythology 
                     F# 
I don't know if it makes things clearer 

 
E             B 
Hiding from myself 
  C#m            G#m 
Alone, no one to tell 
      E           B 
Pay rent to have this shell 
      C#m         F#      F# 
Pay rent to have this cell 

Instrumental

E                  B   F# 
 In the blue moon, I 
        F#                E 
Could sing the blues to sleep 
                 B   F# 
While they were out 
     F# 
I'd have a good week

When it's my turn, you'll be that for me (I never knew)

And you'll quiet all my doubt
