Intro: C G Bm C
Its ^C four in the ^G afternoon
I'm on a ^Bm flight leaving L ^C A
^C Trying to think a ^G bout my life
My ^Bm youth scattered along the hi ^C ghway
^Am Hotel rooms in ^Em headlights
^G I've made a living with a ^D song
Just a ^Em guitar as my compan ^C ion
Wanting ^G desperately to be ^D loved
^Em Fame ^D is filled with ^G spoiled children
^Em They grow ^D fat on fan ^G tasy ^Em
D I guess that's why I'm ^G leaving
^D I crave reality

So ^G good ^C bye ^D Alice in ^G Wonderland
Good ^C bye yellow brick ^D road
^G There is a ^C difference between ^D dreaming and ^G pretending
I did not find ^Em paradise ^C
It was only a reflection ^G
Of my lonely mind ^D searching
Em???
For what was missing in my life
VERSE AND CHORUS 2 SAME CHORDS

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 wanting
What was missing in my life

BRIDGE:Em D G C Bm C D
^Em Dreaming is a good thing
Cause it ^D brings new things to life
^G Pretending is an ending
That ^C perpetuates a lie
^Bm Forgetting what you are
^C Seeing for what you've been ^D told
^Em And growing up is not the ^D answer to dreaming
Its ^G being able to under ^C stand the difference between
The ^Bm ones you can hold and the ^C ones that you've been ^D sold
^Em Truth ^D is stranger than ^G fiction ^Em
This is ^D my chance to get it ^G right ^Em
D Life is much ^G better
With ^D out all of your pretty lies
So ^G good ^C bye ^D Alice in ^G Wonderland
You can ^C keep your yellow brick ^D road
^G There is a ^C difference between ^D dreaming and ^G pretending
That was not love in your ^Em eyes ^C
It was only a reflection
^G Of my lonely mind ^D wanting ^C
It was only a reflection
^G Of my lonely ^D mind wishing
C Em(upward strum)
That you were what was missing from my life
