Intro - E B C#m A (x3)

E B C#m A                E       B   C#m
           My dream girl don't exist
A                      E          B    C#m
At the age of five she slit her wrists
A                           E         B    C#m
She didn't know that I'd be hanging around
A                         E        B    C#m
So her parents buried her in the ground
A                        E         B 
And this day I can still hear the sound
       C#m     A    E  B  C#m 
Of her life in outerspace

A                 E       B   C#m
    My dream girl don't exist
A                       E     B   C#m
It's just you and I and this TV
A                         E          B    C#m
And this illness seems to feel so strange
A                       E        B   C#m
Like a henchman that's about to hang
A                  E          B
The moon up like a ball and chain
  C#m      A       E B   C#m  A
instead it stands ablaze
E                         B
  And the wait is waiting ah
E                           A  B
  Build a world so real and strong
E  B  C#m  

E  B  C#m  A                E       B   C#m
              My dream girl don't exist
A                       E        B   C#m
Just a photograph and a history book
A                       E          B   C#m
And I believe she had a voice and name
A                     E         B    C#m
Three children on the coast of Maine
A                 E     B
Her life was in a hurricane
   C#m      A      E     B C#m 
Of love and real embrace

A                E       B   C#m
   My dream girl don't exist
A                      E          B    C#m
At the age of five she slit her wrists
A                           E         B    C#m
She didn't know that I'd be hanging around
A                     E          B   C#m
So one day she took a stroll to town
A                        E         B
And walked in front of a Greyhound bound
C#m            A         E B C#m A
   For New York Central staaaaaaaaate

E                         B
  And the wait is waiting ah
E                         B
  And the wait is waiting ah
E                          A     B
  Build a world so real and stroonnng
B                                           E
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
