[Intro]
C9
I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em
Oh, God, it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
C9 D9 Em
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
[Verse 1]
C9 D9
How Do you feel? That is the question
Em D9
But I forget you don't expect an easy answer
C9 D9
When something like a soul becomes initialized and folded up
Em Em D9
Like paper dolls and little notes, you can't expect a bit of hope
C9 D9
So while you're outside looking in, describing what you see
Em D9
Remember what you're staring at is me
[Chorus]
C9
'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em
All I know is that it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
D9 C9 D9 Em
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
[Verse 2]
C9 D9
How much is real? So much to question
Em Em D9
An epidemic of the mannequins, contaminating everything
C9 D9 Em
We thought came from the heart, but never did right from the start
D9
Just listen to the noises, null and void instead of voices
C9 D9
Before you tell yourself, it's just a different scene
Em D9
Remember it's just different from what you've seen
[Chorus]
C9
I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em D9
And all I know is that it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
C9 D9 Em D9
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
C9
'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em D9
And all I know is that it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
C9 D9 Em D9
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
[Bridge]
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
[Chorus]
C9
I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em
Oh, God, it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
C9 D9 Em
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
C9
'Cause I'm looking at you through the glass
D9
Don't know how much time has passed
Em Em D9
And all I know is that it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you
C9 D9 Em D9
That forever feels like home, sitting all alone inside your head
[Outro]
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That shine for you
C9 D9
And it's the stars, the stars
Em D9
That lie to you, yeah-ah
(C9 D9 Em Em D9)
C9
Oh, and the stars
D9 Em
Oh, and the stars, they lie
