In [F] another place and _ [G] time _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [Em] _
I will be [F] the vision in your mind
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I want it to be everything you _ wanted _ _ I _ _ _ want it to be everything you [A] _ needed _
[F] _ I _ [C] _ _ wanted what I said to bring you laughter _ _ I _ _ _ wanted what I did to [F] make you _ smile
_ _ _ _ [G] _ [C] But in a perfect [F] world there's no perfection [G] [C] Cause in a world [F] of dreams you're on a dream
[G] [C] I want it to be [F] real I just can't [G] fake _ _ it
_ _ [C] As I _ am, _ _ take [Em] me as I _ am _ [Am] Now I'm all in glass [Em] and gold
[F] Oh I wish that [G] you would love me [C] as I am
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Thought you had me tucked inside your _ pocket
_ _ [D] You _ [C] _
thought you had me under your [A] control
_ _ [F] _ Well [C] you can put my smile and picture in a _ _ locket _ _ _ _
You can put a chain [F] around my _ _ soul

[F] Oh I wish that you [G] would love me [C] as I am
