[Dm]
I'm like, I'm like
I didn't want to do it, but I got too lonely.
Had to call you up in the [A] middle of the night.
[G] No, it's not the one tribe, they [Dm] belong to the law.
It's the city.
[C] But I really [Em] need a [G] simulation.
No, it was all in [Em] my head.
[A] It's just [B] fantasy.
Oh, [G] [A] it's not [B] good.
Oh, [A] it's just [B] fantasy.
[Dm] Oh, [A] it's not [B] good.
[A] Oh, it's just [G] fantasy.
Oh, [A] [F] it's not in [C] me.
[F] Love, [C] [F] love.
[G] Am I gonna take control, get a hold [B] of my own?
Why does it only seem to hit me in the middle of the night?
Huh?
Why [A] is he dead?
[G] You told me there's a number I can [Dm] always count on.
I'm just a little lost.
[C] I don't wanna [E] be without you.
[G] Or you can give me [A] satisfaction.
It's just [B] fantasy.
Oh, [G] [A] it's [B] not good.
Oh, [A] it's just [G] fantasy.
Oh, [A] it's not [B] good.
[Dm] Oh, it's [A] just [B] fantasy.
Oh, [A] it's not in [F] me.
[C] I'm not [F] alone.
I'm not alone.
[C] [F]
[G]
[D] [Am] [D] [Cm]
[Fm] [Em] [D]
I asked [Bb] you to be better if I [A] had you here [Dm] for me.
We are the new rock.
Better baby, but what it means [A] is it's nothing I can't do.
[N] Hey, I [G] just hope that you know I [Dm] need to leave you all for the secrets.
[G]
[C] I'm afraid of [Em] shaking words, I'm moving [G] in the air.
You're [A] gonna tell him [D] I'm human.
[A] It's just [B] fantasy.
[G] Oh, [A] it's not [B] good.
Oh, [A] it's just [N] fantasy.
Oh, [A] it's not [B] good.
[D] Oh, [A] it's [B] just fantasy.
Oh, [A] it's not in [C] me.
It's just the [F] fantasy.
It's just the [C] fantasy.
Has a little magic.
It's just [F] the fantasy.
It's just [D] the fantasy.
It's the real size.
It's just [G] the fantasy.
It's just fantasy.
It's not [D] the real world, it's not the fantasy, it's just [G] the way that she's got me.
