[Verse 1]
Cm  Cm7      Cm
You're tossing and turning
Cm Cm7         Cm
You think you're awake while you're trying to run
G#
Like in a nightmare
A#
Time loves your ego to death

Cm  Cm7      Cm
You're leaving the wheelwork
Cm Cm7         Cm Csus2 C7sus2
To the ground of being you go on
G#
Defying temptation in the engine room
A#
That is our self
Cm
Whoaaaaaaaaah!

[Pre-Chorus]
F#        G#/F#         A#m/F#      G#/F#
I feel a storm is looming with a shaking grumble
A#m          G#               F#
I don't know if I'm right or wrong
             G#            A#m
I don't know if I shall go on
             G#            F#           G#
I don't know what I'll believe but I'm on my way

[Chorus]
A#         F             D#      Gm F
Minds fly free when the gates fly open
Gm         D#
Walk on through
Gm           D#           A#         F
Thunder and rain and the wind in my face
A#            F               D#      Gm F
Ghost lights dance, will you heed the token
Gm       D#
Glazing light
Gm           D#          A#         F
Blinding my eyes get me out of this maze
D#

[Verse 2]
Cm  Cm7      Cm
The world as we know it
Cm  Cm7      Cm
Is beginning to shake, I don't trust my eyes
G#
Are we all superstitious
A#
If we think what our hearts know is true

Cm  Cm7      Cm
Fireworks surround me
Cm  Cm7      Cm  Csus2 C7sus2
Wherever I go they tell me: always home
G#
Psychosomatic –
A#
They'll name it the nature of God

F#        G#/F#       A#m/F#      G#/F#                A#m
Off to a new horizon, time is the key to unite with the all
        G#             F#
Time is gonna make you see
             G#         A#m
Right from wrong eternally
              G#         F#    G#
Don't let the noises devour you

[Chorus]
A#         F             D#      Gm F
Minds fly free when the gates fly open
Gm         D#
Walk on through
Gm           D#           A#         F
Thunder and rain and the wind in my face
A#            F               D#      Gm F
Ghost lights dance, will you heed the token
Gm       D#
Glazing light
Gm           D#          A#         F
Blinding my eyes get me out of this maze

[Bridge]
Cm                  F
And what if you're only a prism
         A#             F/A   Gm     F
For the ghostlights that you wanna see
D#                F            A#
And we're just reflections of your dreams

      D#                   F
It's speaking to me, It's yelling at me
      Gm                  F/A
It's screaming to me, resonating with me
      D#                   F               A#   F
And a thousand lights are trying to make me see

D#    F      Gm  A# D#    F     Gm  A#
They call me home, they call me home
D#    F      Gm F/A D#          D#5 F5 G5 A5 A#5 C5
They call me home, they call me home

[Chorus]
A#         F             D#      Gm F
Minds fly free when the gates fly open
Gm         D#
Walk on through
Gm           D#           A#         F
Thunder and rain and the wind in my face
A#            F               D#      Gm F
Ghost lights dance, will you heed the token
Gm       D#
Glazing light
Gm           D#          A#         F
Blinding my eyes get me out of this maze
