G                                                    Cadd9
Well I woke up in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts
    Dsus4

G                                        Cadd9

If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about

2. Mrs. Potter's Lullaby

(this is Riff A. It's played pretty much every other measure in all the
verses. The A's in the verses are usually the riff above, in fact, but a
simple A chord will do the job.)

[Verse]
A                            D                       E
Well I woke up in mid-afternoon cause that's when it all hurts the most
(then Riff A twice)
A                                   D             E
I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host
then Riff A twice
C#m                               D
If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts
(then Riff A twice)
A                             D
You can never escape, you can only move south down the coast
(then Riff A twice)
all the rest of the verses follow that same pattern.

Well, I am an idiot walking a tightrope of fortune and fame
I am an acrobat swinging trapezes through circles of flame
If you've never stared off in the distance, then your life is a
shame
And though I'll never forget your face,
sometimes I can't remember my name

[Chorus]
C#m  D    A        E
Hey  Mrs. Potter don't cry
C#m  D    A          E
Hey  Mrs. Potter I know why but
C#m  D    A
Hey  Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
