[G]
Through the [Bm] corridors of sleep, [C] past the [G] shadows dark and deep, [Bm] my mind [C] dances and [G] leaps in confusion.
I don't know [Bm] what is real, [C] I can't [Em] touch what I feel, and [Bm] I hide behind [C] the [G] shield of my illusion.
[D]
So [C] I'll continue [G] to continue [Bm] to [Em] pretend [C] that my life [Em] will never end, [A] and the [Em] flowers [C] never
bend [G] with the [C] rainfall.
[G]
The mirror on [Bm] my wall [C] casts an [G] image dark and small, but [Bm] I'm [C] not sure at all, it's my [G] reflection.
I am [Bm] blinded by the light [C] of God and [G] truth and right, [Bm] and I wander [C] in the night [G] without direction.
[D]
So [C] I'll continue [G] to continue [Bm] to [Em] pretend that [C] my life will [Em] never end, [A] and the [Em] flowers [C] never
bend with [G] the rainfall.
It's no matter if [Bm] you're born to [G] play the king or pawn, [Bm] for the line is [C] thinly [G] drawn
between joy and [A] sorrow.
[G] And so [Bm] my fantasy [C] [G] becomes reality, and I [Bm] must be what I [C] must be [G] and face tomorrow.
[D]
So [G] [C] I'll continue to [G] continue [Em] to pretend [C] that my life will [Em] never end, and the flowers [C] never
bend with [G] the [C] rainfall.
