[Primeira Parte]

Am                          C                Dm
From what I've gathered you grew up nice and sheltered
     Em            G           F                E
With mama's pretty stories and your own made up furies
E
And mama gave me a magic clicker
                       F        E       Am
Well yes, I think it's true and fair to say

Am                        Dm                E
C'mon in and listen, lost words you've been missing
       Am                       Dm         E              Am
Of the fire you're bearing, the eye of the darkness, your light

Am                           F     G
So you were drawn to stories early on
Am                           F       E
My dreams would light up my imagination
Am                     F         G
And you had nightmares night and day
Am                           F            E       Am
Yeah, but with the clicker I chased those frights away
Am
Who knew?
E
So true

[Pré-Refrão]

Am           G       Dm      E
So here is a clue of hope to remember
Am           G         Dm          E            Am
Visions they come true obeying the light switch too

[Segunda Parte]

Am                      C                 Dm
And all your stories of crime and chilling thrillers
Em            G       F      E
Of hardboiled killers became bestsellers
E                      F      E   Am
It was all too much, I had to get away

Am              G          Dm            E
The story's the end all, a piece of true fiction
 Am                     Dm      E     Am
Made meaningless in the face of creation

Am                           F         G
But there is more to it than meets the eye
Am                      F       E         Am
I never meant for it to ruin my life that way
Am                        F     G
Would you say you lived a jaded lie
Am                 F    E        Am
Dark shades could never save the day
Am
So sad
E
But true

[Pré-Refrão]

Am            G          Dm          E
Fighting the nightmares, torch and a light switch
Am                   Dm      E       Am
A gift or a curse, a reality made of dreams

         Am                     Dm          Am  E
He could write a new story like Tom Zane before him
     Am                   Dm   E
And maybe they'd be happy once again
     Am                            Dm                 E
Just one shot, one more chance for him to save their marriage
   Am                 Dm        E  A#  Am  A#  E
Away from the city, a romantic getaway

[Pré-Refrão]

      Am             G             Dm                E
Still he's the torch bearer and it couldn't be much clearer
Am              G        Dm       E
A war needs its warrior, true and right
         Am                 Dm        E
But the darkness within him held her hostage
       Am       G                    Dm                E               Am
Had he seen her drowning, would have save her from the darkness of the lake

Am                    F            E
Such a Dark Place? Am I trapped in here
Am              F        E
Is this real? I cannot remember
Am                    F            E
There was a manuscript it held a key
Am                                    Dm
A vicious cycle I must not surrender to
A#   A7             Dm
Echo scenes to seek out
A#    A7  Dm
Again and again
A#      A7        Dm
Until I figure it out
A#            A7          Dm  A#  C
To bring this song to its end
