[D] [C] [G] [C]
[E] [C] [E] [G] Why do [C] I daydream?
[E] Oh, [C] why do I get my hopes up at all?
I've been living this Walter [D] Mitty life [C] for too long.
[G] Somebody save me!
I'm a [C] prisoner [G] of my own fears.
[C] Sometimes [G] fantasy [D] is the [C] only thought I can bear.
[G] [A] My mind is a [Em] dream-filled balloon,
[C] Dripping dreams [G] into my shoes.
[D] And I'm too [C] afraid to move,
To face the [G] real world.
And [A] when I fall, I [E] fall down hard.
[C] When will I [G] ever learn?
[D] Don't take your [C] dreams to heart,
You'll only [Em] wind up getting [C] burned.
[E] [G]
[C] Burned!
[G] Well, maybe I'm lazy,
But [C] circumstance is always knocking me down.
So I'll just lie here [D] and never [C] get up off the ground.
[Em] Or maybe it's [C] [G] crazy,
[E] [C] Just sitting, thinking of all the things I want to do.
What's the use in dreaming [D] when dreams [C] never come true?
[G] [B] [C]
[G] [F#] [C]
[G] And [A] when I fall, I fall [Em] down hard.
[C] When [G] will I ever learn?
Don't take your dreams [C] to heart,
You'll only wind [Em] up getting burned.
[E] [Em]
[E] [C] Why do I daydream?
Why do I [Em] daydream?
[C] Why do I bother?
[Am] Why?
[C]
[E] Oh, [Gm] why do [C] I daydream?
[Em] Why do I [C] daydream?
[G]
[E] [C] Why do I bother?
[D] [C] Why?
[E] It's [C] time to get up [G] off your ass,
Hold your head [C] up, take a [E] stance,
[C] Grab whatever you can [D] grab,
There's no [C] such thing.
[E]
It's time [C] to get up off your ass,
Hold your head up, take [E] a stance,
Grab [C] whatever you can [D] grab,
There's no [C] such thing.
[E]
It's time [C] to get up off your ass,
Hold your head up, take a stance,
Grab whatever you can [D] grab,
There's no such [C] thing.
No such [E] thing!
