  The devil's in the dreamin'. 
                      E 
He tells you I'm not sleepin' 
       Esus4      E 
In my hotel room alone 
E                    Esus4 
   With nothing to believe in. 
                  E  
You dive into the traffic rising up, 
Esus4       E 
And it's so quiet. 
                                
You're surprised, and then you wake. 
 
G#m                           A 
    For all the things you're losing. 
                    E                    Esus4     E 
You might as well resign yourself to try and make a change. 
G#m                      A 
   And I'm going down to Hollywood. 
                     B 
They're gonna make a movie from the things 
                                 
That they find crawling round my brain.  
 
A    B            C#m 
   I wish I was a girl 
   B                A 
So that you could believe me 
    B                  C#m          B 
And I could shake this static every time  
         A 
I try to sleep 
  B                C#m 
I wish for all the world 
     B 
That I could say 
       E                                F#sus4 F# 
"Hey, Elizabeth, you know I'm doing all right 
      A         B 
These days."

The devil's in the dreamin'. 
You see yourself descending 
From the building to the ground, 
And you watch the sky receding, 
And you spin to see the traffic, 
Rising up, and it's so quiet. 
And you're surprised and then you wake. 
 
G#m                           A

And one of these dreams 
        E 
You forgive me. 
                    F#m 
It makes me think of    the bad decisions 
     A   
That keep you at home. 
          E                A 
How could anyone else have changed, 
F#m    
    But these are wrong conclusions 
     A 
That leave you alone. 
          E             A 
How could everyone rearrange? 
          E                  A 
How could everyone else have changed? 
       F#m     A 
What I see I believe.
