Verse 1:

C#m             B 
 Lucidity came slowly 
    E                      A 
I awoke from dreams of untying a great knot 
C#m                   B                          E 
 It unraveled like a braid into what seemed were thousands 
              A 
Of separate strands of fishing line 
F#m           B                  E 
 Attached to coarse behavior it flowed 
          C#m 
A calm it urged, what else is here? 

 

F#m       B                 E 
 How's it feel to be at the center of magic 
   C#m 
To linger in tones and words? 
F#m            B                      E                     C#m 
 I opened the floodgates and found no water, no current, no river, no rush 
F#m       B                    E 
 How's it feel to stand at the height of your powers 
   C#m 
To captivate every heart? 
F#m              B                        E                       C#m 
 Projecting your visions to strangers who feel it, who listen, who linger on every word 

F#m B         E   C#m 
  Oh it's a rush! 
F#m B         E   C#m 
  Oh it's a rush!

Bridge:

F#m   B7       A           C#m 
 But alone it feels like dying 
F#m   B7      A        C#m 
 All alone I feel so much 
F#m         B7          E               C#m 
 I want my offering to woo, to calm, to clear, to solve 
F#m           B7             E 
 But the only offering that comes 
              C#m 
It calls, it screams, there's nothing here!
