Intro: C G Bm C
C G
Its four in the afternoon
Bm C
I'm on a flight leaving LA
C G
Trying to think about my life
Bm C
My youth scattered along the highway
Am Em
Hotel rooms in headlights
G D
I've made a living with a song
Am Em
Just a guitar as my companion
G D
Wanting desperately to be loved
Em D G
Fame is filled with spoiled children
Em D G
They grow fat on fantasy
Em D G
I guess that's why I'm leaving
D
I crave reality
CHORUS:
G C D G
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
C D
Goodbye yellow brick road
G C D G
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
Em C
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection
G D
Of my lonely mind wanting
C
For what was missing in my life
I'm embarassed to say
The rest is a rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when i reached the top
Never knew it was you
Who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not
Yes, a heart can hallucinate
If its completely stuffed for life
Can even make monsters seem like
Angels from above
Forged my love like a weapon
Turned it against me like a knife
Broke my last heart string
But you opened up my eyes
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection
Of my lonely mind searching
What was missing in my life
BRIDGE:
Em D
And growing up is not the absence of dreaming
G Am
Its being able to understand the difference between
Em C D
The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold
Em
Dreaming is a good thing
D
Cause it brings new things to life
G
Pretending is an ending
Am
That perpetuates a lie
Em
Forgetting what you are
C D
Seeing for what you've been told
Em D G Em
Truth is stranger than fiction
D G Em
This is my chance to get it right
D G
Life is much better
D
Without all of those pretty lies
CHORUS
