Jacob Lee - Reality Chords

[Verse 1]
                               Gmaj7
If I could speak to the breeze

What would she teach?
                          Em7
I'd ask politely for peace

Or some guidance at least
                              C
Perhaps she'd tell me to leave
                                             D
Conceal the secrets in the air that I breathe


[Pre-Chorus]
                           Gmaj7
If I could speak to the sea

What would she preach?
                             Em7
I'd ask her what does it mean

To know the depths of belief?
                              C
Perhaps she'd guide me beneath
                                        D
Reveal the meaning in the fathoms unseen


[Chorus]
                       Gmaj7
Then they'd say reality
                Em7
Was never for me
       C
Reality
                              D
Was never for me, never for me


[Verse 2]
                             Gmaj7 (let ring out)
If I could speak to the trees

What would they plea?
                                     (percussion) Em7
I'd watch the wind thieve their seeds

Lend them moments to grieve
                                 C
Perhaps they'd bleed just like me
                                              D
Deliver their message in the words that I read


[Pre-Chorus]
                              Gmaj7
If I could speak to the leaves

What would they heed?
                              Em7
I'd ask them what do they seek

As they descend from the trees
                              C
Perhaps they'd rest at my feet
                                          D
Administer healing in the tea that I drink


[Chorus]
                       Gmaj7
Then they'd say reality
                Em7
Was never for me
       C
Reality
                              D
Was never for me, never for me


[Verse 3] (the chords here are arpeggiated)
                      Gmaj7
How am I to understand

Everything I am
                                          Em7
If I don't look beyond the thoughts I have?

Learning that it takes some time
                    C
To separate the mind
                      D
And I just wonder, now
                             Gmaj7
If all that I have ever known

Is all that I was ever shown
                                      Em7
Questioning who sees behind these eyes
                        C
Maybe if I find a reason
                             D
That lasts beyond the seasons

                  Gmaj7*
I'd ask if reality
               Em7
Was ever for me
       C
Reality
                              D
Was never for me, never for me


[Outro]
                          Gmaj7*
If I could see the supreme

What would he think?
                          Em7
If he stood in front of me

Would I believe?
                          C
He'd ask me to take a seat

Pour us a drink
                          D
And show me all I could be
