INTRO : G
( guitar 1 )
G C D G
Well I woke in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts the most
G C D G
I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host
Bm C G
If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts
D C G
You can never escape, you can only move south down the coast

G C D G (fill 1)
well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope of fortune and fame
G C D G (fill 2)
I am an acrobat swinging trapezes through circles of flame
Bm C G (fill 3)
If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a shame
D
and though I'll never forget your face,
C G (fill 4)
sometimes i can't remember my name

Bm C G D
Hey Mrs. Potter don't cry
Hey Mrs. Potter I know why but
Bm C G D C C/B G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

(fill 5)

G C D G
Well, there's a piece of Maria in every song that I sing
G C D G
And the price of a memory is the memory of the sorrow it brings
Bm C G
And there is always one last light to turn out and one last bell to
ring
D C G
And the last one out of the circus has to lock up everything

G C D G (fill 6)
Or the elephants will get out and forget to remember what you said
G C D G (fill 2)
And the ghosts of the childer world will linger inside your head
Bm C G
And the ferris wheel junkies will spin there forever instead
D C G (fill 1 )
When I see you a blanket of stars covers me in my bed

Bm C G D
Hey Mrs. Potter don't go
Hey Mrs. Potter I don't know but
Bm C G D C C/B G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

(fill 7 )

G C D G
All the blue light reflections that color my mind when I sleep
G C D G
And the lovesick rejections that accompany the company I keep
Bm C G (fill 8)
All the razor perceptions that cut just a little too deep
D C G (fill 9 )
Hey I can bleed as well as anyone, but I need someone to help me sleep

G C D G (fill 10)
So I throw my hand into the air and it swims in the beams
G C D G (fill 11)
It's just a brief interruption of the swirling dust sparkle jet stream
Bm C G
Well, I know I don't know you and you're probably not what you seem
D
But I'd sure like to find out
C G
So why don't you climb down off that movie screen

Bm C G D
Hey Mrs. Potter don't turn
Hey Mrs. Potter I burn for you
Bm C G D C C/B G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

G C D G
When the last king of Hollywood shatters his glass on the floor
G D/F#
and orders another
Em D Bm
Well, I wonder what he did that for
Bm C G
That's when I know that I have to get out cause I have been there
before
D C G (fill 12)
So I gave up my seat at the bar and I head for the door

G C D G (fill 13)
We drove out to the desert just to lie down beneath this bowl of stars
G C D G (fill 14)
We stand up in the palace like it's the last of the great pioneer town
bars
Bm C G
We shout out these songs against the clang of electric guitars
D C G
You can see a million miles tonight But you can't get very far
D C G (fill 14)
Oh, you can see a million miles tonight But you can't get very far

Bm C G D
Hey Mrs. Potter I won't touch
Hey Mrs. Potter it's not much but
Bm C G D C C/B G
Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
