             G                                          C
Have you ever caught a glimpse of your reflection in the mirror
Em              C                   G              D    
And wondered if the person that you saw was even you
Em           C                     G            D
Everyone applauding, it's the perfect presentation
C                               Dsus D
Nobody would ever have a clue

       G                                                          C 
Have you ever closed your eyes and tried to listen to your heartbeat
     Em              C                    G               D
It takes you to a place that seems so vast you can't ignore
Em                      C               G               D       
And all they ever see is only part of the equation
C                                         Dsus  D
Don't they realize you're so much more

                   G      C      Dsus
There's a universe inside
D                         Em    
Which no one else can see
    C       Dsus D
A world inside
                         Em
Where I'm alone with me
                   D                    G                 C     
You can spend a lifetime looking deep in someone's eyes
         D                              G                
And never see the universe inside

We live our lives unscreened, we pass like strangers undetected
        Em                     C                        G                        D              
Buying things we do not need to cure a sickness we don't have
         Em             C                       G       D       
And underneath it all there lies a beauty unsuspected
      C                                    Dsus D
Revealed for just a moment when we laugh

         G                                                              C       
I'm scared to show what's underneath, I cover it with makeup
 Em        C                    G               D
Bravery, bravado and the need to be the best
      Em                                C               G             D         
If I showed them what I'm hiding would I handle the rejection
C                               Dsus D
Stepping to the light that I possess


                   G      C      Dsus
There's a universe inside
D                         Em    
Which no one else can see

A world inside
                         Em
Where I'm alone with me
                   D                    G                 C     
You can spend a lifetime looking deep in someone's eyes
         D                              G                
And never see the universe inside

C
And as we walk each other home
        G
The terror of the great unknown
        C                                     G 
Just wish that we could see each other shining
          C                                     Em
That we would never have to be afraid of nightmares or our dreams
        C                           D
And if you want me you know where to find me

            G         C     Dsus D
In the universe inside
                                Em
'Cause you must have one too
      C     Dsus D      
A world inside
                        Em
That no one ever knew
            D              G                C           
I wish I'd noticed but I never took the time

To look beyond the surface and finally see the universe inside
G C G C
You Inside You

                   G                                                    C
Have you ever caught a glimpse of your reflection in the mirror
Em              C                   G              D    
And wondered if the person that you saw was even you
Em           C                     G            D
Everyone applauding, it's the perfect presentation
C                               Dsus D
Nobody would ever have a clue

A world inside

Where I'm alone with me

I hope that someone looks into my eyes
         D                              G                
And finally sees the universe inside
