VERSE : 
 
Bm     Bm7                 Em7 
        This one's about a dream I had last night 
Bm     Bm7                Em7 
How an old man tracked me home and stepped inside 
Bm         Bm7             Em7                     G 
He put his foot inside the door and gave a crooked smile 
                 D                     G 
Something in his eyes something in his laugh 
                 F#m 
Something in his voice that made my skin crawl off 
Bm           Bm7             Em7 
He said I've seen you here before I know your name 
Bm       Bm7                 Em7 
         You could have your pick of pretty things 
Bm        Bm7               Em7               G 
          You could have it all everything at once 
                  D                      G 
Everything you've seen everything you'll need 
                  F#m 
everything you've ever had in fantasies 
 
INTERLUDE :

You've one life you've one life you've one life left to lead 
D6             Bm7             G6add13 
You've one life you've one life you've one life left to lead 
 
VERSE 2 : 
 
Bm           Bm7             Em7 
           I woke up from my dream as a golden man 
Bm           Bm7             Em7                   Bm 
      With a girl I've never seen with golden skin 
  Bm7             Em7                        G 
I jumped up to my feet she asked me what was wrong 
           D                            G 
I began to scream I don't think this is me 
               F#m 
Is this just a dream or really happening

CHORUS : 
 
G5                    A5  
What direction what direction 
                      B5 
What direction what direction 
  
I'm splitting up I'm splitting up 
           D            G 
This is my personal disaffection 
                    A 
What direction what direction what direction now 
 
VERSE 3 : 
 
Bm           Bm7                Em7 
           I looked outside the glass at golden shores 
Bm            Bm7              Em7 
              Golden ships and masts with golden cords 
Bm              Bm7          Em7                   G 
             As my refection passed I hated what I saw 
                    D                                    G 
My golden eyes were dead and a thought passed through my head 
                        F#m 
A heart that is made of gold can't really beat at all 
 
BRIDGE : 
 
G5  
I wanted to wake up again 
    
I wanted to wake up again 
Em7                G 
Without a touch of gold 
                   A 
Without a touch of gold 
 
CHORUS 2 : 
G5 P.M 
What direction what direction 
 
What direction what direction 
 
Death or action 
                        G 
Life begins at the intersection 
                       A      
What direction what direction what direction now 
 
VERSE 4 : 
 
Bm            Bm7          Em7 
            I woke up as before but the gold was gone 
Bm        Bm7             Em7 
       My wife was at the door with her night robe on 
Bm    Bm7                Em7                       G 
   My heart beat once or twice and life flooded my veins 
               D                                G 
Everything had changed my lungs had found their voice 
                     F#m 
And what was once routine was now the perfect joy
