Fantasy Man by The Swell Season
Fantasy Man
Bm7
This diamond's growing in the mountains
A
beneath the pressure of all time
Bm7
that glow in hope and expectation
A
waiting for your hands to find
G
'cause only you could reach inside me
Em
and figure out the worth
Gm
of a life i live providing
Em
what it was you needed most
Bm7 A x2
oh ... da ra da
Bm7
And if everything is measuredby the
A
hole it leaves behind then this
Bm7
mountain has been leveled and there's
A
no more diamonds in the mine
G
go on now just leave it
Em
the timing wasn't right and the
G
forces that swept us both away was too
Em
strong for us to fight
Bm7 A x2
oh ... da ra da
G Em
Fantasy man you are always
G Em
one step ahead of me
C#m B
well i never heard a warning
A C#m
i haven't got things right
C#m B
the sun came out this morning
A C#m
and filled my room with light
C#m B
so go now you are forgiven
A C#m
let's put it down to light
C#m B
the story of two lovers
A C#m
would dance both edges of the night
Bm7 A x2
oh ... da ra da
Bm7
In the station you were standing
A
not knowing what you want
Bm7
and the secrets that we're defending
A
have become our only bond
G
just be patient while i wait here
Em
journeys out of sync
G
while you're out there running in the chaos
Em
i need some time to think
Bm7 A x2
oh ... da ra da
G Em
Fantasy man you are always
G Em
one step ahead of me
C#m B
well i never heard a warning
A C#m
i haven't got things right
C#m B
the sun came out this morning
A C#m
and filled my room with light
C#m B
so go now you are forgiven
A C#m
let's put it down to light
C#m B
the story of two lovers
A C#m

There's diamonds growing in the mountain
Beneath the pressure of all time
They grow in hope and expectation
Waiting for your hands to find
Cause only you could reach inside me
And figure out the worth
Of a life I lived providing
What it was you needed most
And if everything is measured by the hole it leaves behind
Then this mountain has been leveled
And there's no more diamonds in the mine
Go on now just leave it
The timing wasn't right
And the force that swept us both away
Was too strong for us to fight
Fantasy Man you are always one step ahead of me
Well I never heard the warning
I haven't got things right
Yet the sun came out this morning
And filled my room with light
So go on now, you are forgiven
Let's put it down to life
The story of two lovers
Who danced both edges of the knife
In the station you're standing
Not knowing what you want
And the secrets we're defending
Have become our only bond
Just be patient while I wait here
Our journey is out of sync
While you're out there running in the chaos
I need some time to think
Fantasy Man you are always one step ahead of me
Well I never heard the warnings
I haven't got things right
Yet the sun came out this morning
And filled my room with light
So go on now, you are forgiven
Let's put it down to life
The story of two lovers
Who danced both edges of the knife
