Dm                      Am
If you're all that you're cracked up to be
  Dm         C
Sylvia, come sit with me
F                      Am       F
And hold my hand, for comfort's sake
   Dm             Am
If who you are eventually
   Dm                  C
Is all that forms your destiny
   F          Am        F
If character equates to fate
     Am         F
Then I'm not great
     F        Am           C
But it's not in me to complain
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh


[Verse 2]

    Dm                   Am
Oh, girl in white, come close to me
Dm                 C
Hold my hand, pass notes to me
F                Am       F
Unquestioning in dormitories
    Am         F        Am       F
We string our beads and fill our plates
     F                     C
The days repeat and play again


[Pre-Chorus 1]

    Dm               Am
And times goes by so idly
 Dm             Am
Writing in your diary
    Dm             Am
And every line the same:


[Chorus 1]

         F
That if this is life
                                C
Then why does it feel like I'm dreaming?
G      F
Oh, if this is life
                               C
Then why does it feel like I'm far away?
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh
Dm              Am
Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh ooh ooh


[Chorus 2]

         F
That if this is life
                                C
Then why does it feel like I'm dreaming?
G      F
Oh, if this is life
                               C
Then why does it feel like I'm far away?
G       F
And if this is life
           C
Then, Sylvia -


[Bridge]

                 F
Arriving at the window like the milk
                 Am
All dressed in white
                 C
Tell me what you are
                   F            C
And tell me, if my character is fate
     Am
Do I confine myself
                      G           C
'Til I find a way to dream us all awake?
        F
It's weird
                                                   C
Sometimes, well, I swear I don't remember how you came


[Pre-Chorus]

         F
Oh, and, girl in white
                              C
Just tell me if you think I'm dreaming
G              F
Oh, if this is life
                               C
Then why does it feel like I'm far away?


[Chorus 3]

G       F
Oh, and this is life
                                C
But still it does feel like I'm dreaming
G      F
And if this is life
           C
Then, Sylvia...
