(And, I'm doing things but)

 Bb
(I'm not meaning to do them)

  A
(And even though it's a nightmare)
        Dm
(I feel happy inside)

 [Verse 1]

(Dm) 
I've done some things in my life

Bb
That you may think are crazy

Gm
A little different from the rest

F         E        A        Dm
I get my pleasure from the pain

(Dm)                             Bb
I've got some ghosts who follow me

                        Gm
You may think I'm crazy

But in the night I know I

A
Feel alright

[Chorus]

[verse 2]

  Dm                              Bb
I smile in the face of what's to come

                           Gm
We can try but we can't run

                         F     (E Gm)
From the fate we bring upon ourselves




Dm                              Bb
It's just a dream, it's just a dream

But that doesn't mean
   Gm                   A
My waking life is not a nightmare
