The song structure and lyrics are as follows:
These first few verses are soft, with only the intro and riffs A and B
Play the intro riff, then
I’m caught in a dream, sometimes it ain’t what it seems.
I’m all in a daze, cant fight my way out of this maze.
Riff A
I’m looking for clues, and wanting a change in the rules.
I’m locked in a cage, acting out on the wrong stage.
Riff B
Don’t want your sympathy
No,no, no.
(Don’t need the third degree,)
No, no, no.
(I’ve just gotta break away and scream.)
I’m caught in a dream.
Guitar 2 continues to play riff A and guitar 1 plays
second part of the intro riff once
I’m still at the edge and I’m lookin down
Caught in the danger zone
Feels like a king who has lost his crown
And now I stand here alone
Riff B
(Don’t want your sympathy,)
No…no..no
Don’t need the third degree,)
No..o……o
(I’ve just gotta break away and scream.)
I’M CAUGHT IN A DREAM!
With this it turns rocking!!!
Riff C
Fractured love, fractured love,
Iron fist in a velvet glove.
Fractured love, fractured love,
Cracks in the mirror of this fracture love.
I don’t care if you pull down the sky,
Angry passion is a friend of mine.
Reach out for the sky above,
It’s just a fractured love.
Fractured love, fractured love,
Iron fist in a velvet glove.
Fractured love, fractured love,
Cracks in the mirror of your fractured love.
Then the bridge
Riff D (play the corresponding guitar also)
I’m caught in a dream.
Riff E (play corresponding guitar also)
Why don’t you set me free?
Then there’s that superb guitar solo, with riffs C played in between twice, followed by
power C and power A chord, and then riff D once.
We are still working on it and shall put it up later.
Don’t want your sympathy…………….play A5
Don’t need your third degree…………..play C5
just gotta break,
Break away and scream!!!
Riff F
I’m caught in a dream.
Riff G
Why don’t you set me free?
Riff C
Fractured love
(fractured love,)
Fractured love,
(fractured love,)
Iron fist in a velvet glove.
Fractured love,
(fractured love,)
Fractured love,
(fractured love,)
Riff H
Don’t give me your fractured love…….oh…o…….oh……o
Finally the outro solo for which guitar 2 plays riff I
And then ends with riff H and
