  			  Dm         C    Dm  Am 
An elaborate tale 
      Dm        C    Dm  Am 
So convincingly real  
           Dm       C   
Things can seem so amazing 
         Dm     C    
'Til you get up close  
                Dm     C 
And see they're no big deal  
         Dm           C   Dm  Am 
Like the stars in the sky  
       Dm         C      Dm  Am 
Or the one on the stage  
       Dm          C 
Just a big ball of gas  
      Dm      C  
And a regular guy  
             Dm      C  Dm  Am 
Fresh out of minimum wage
