G
I've been sleeping fair
C
Lately I could swear I'm thinking
Am
Clearer and clearer
G
And I've been working hard
C
Looking at my punch card
Am
And my mirror, my mirror
Em Bm
But I daydream in my room
Em Am
I'm baying at the moon
G C
Ricochet in time to the music
G
You just pick a day
C Am
And I'm in a new destination
G
I take too many planes
C
I know too many names
Am
And I forget them
G
I wanted to know if dreams would lie
C Am
You said they would try and I said, "Let them
You just let them"
Em Bm
But I kill dreams in the chase
Em Am
I slap love in the face
G C
Ricochet in time to the music
G
You just pick a day
C Am
And I'm in a new destination
G
I crawled up from the sewer
C
For something that was truer
Am
Than I intended
G
I ended up on my knees
C Am
In this big city I was befriended
I transcended
Em Bm
But I bruise my friends for more
Em Am
I rail at Heaven's door
G C
Ricochet in time to the music
G
You just pick a day
C Am
And I'm in a new destination
