[A] [E]
Devil's in [A] your dream, he tells you I'm [E] not sleeping in [A] my hotel [E] room alone
With nothing to [A] believe in, you dive into [E] the traffic
Rising up and it's so quiet, you're surprised and then [G#m] you wake
For all the things [A] you're losing, you might as well [E] resign yourself to try and make a change
But [G#m]
I'm going down [A] to Hollywood, they're gonna make [B] a movie
[E] From the things that they [B] find crawling around my [Em] brain
[A]
[B] I wish I [C#m] was a girl, [B] so that you [A] could believe me
[B] And I could shake [C#m] this static every [B] time I try [A] to sleep
[B] I wish for [C#m] all the world, [B] that I could say
[E] Hey Elizabeth, you know I'm [B] doing alright [F#] these [A]
days

[A] [E]
[A] [E]
The devil's in the dreaming, [A] you see yourself [E] descending
From the building to the ground
And you watch the sky [A] receding, you spin to see the [E] traffic
Rising up and it's so quiet, you're surprised [G#m] and then you wake
For all the things [A] I'm losing, I might as well [E] resign myself to try and make a change

days
And [C#] [E]
one of these [A]
[E] dreams, [A] [E] you forgive me
It makes me think [F#m] of the bad decisions [A] that keep you at home
How [E] could anyone else have a [A] chance?
And then they won't understand, all these wrong conclusions that leave you alone
How [E] could everyone [A] rearrange?
How [E] could everyone else have [A] changed?
What I [F#m]
see, I'll [A] leave

For all the things [B] I'm losing, I might as well [E] resign myself to try and make a change
