[Intro] (see above)
| Eb-5 | D |
Verse
I couldn't really understand at all
The writing on the wall
From you to me
Verse
A jigsaw puzzle of a twisted tale
That set its lonely sail
From you to me
Bridge
'Cause I tried to get the message but it's not understood
Wide apart and so far away
G Bb [ D ]
It mattered at the start until I realized inste---ad ....
Chorus
I'm flying in the troubled sky
Watching you as you go by
In an ordinary dream
I'm sailing on a troubled sea
Watching you as you watch me
In an ordinary dream [break]
Verse
I couldn't understand a word it said
The letter that I read
From you to me
Verse
I couldn't fathom out the stuff you wrote
So I guess it's just a joke
From you to me
Bridge
Though reality keeps calling me away from my dream
And the wreckage isn't all it might have been
G Bb [ D ]
Didn't matter at the start until I realized it di---id
Chorus
I'm flying in the troubled sky
Watching you as you go by
In an ordinary dream
I'm sailing on a troubled sea
Watching you as you watch me
Bb A D F6 [?]
In an ordinary dream [break]
Chorus
I'm flying in the troubled sky
Watching you as you go by
In an ordinary dream
I'm sailing on a troubled sea
Watching you as you watch me
In an ordinary dream
