Dm

(Intro)

In this bookcase full of stories

Gm

You find some of them are true

Dm

Tales of love and glory

A7

Many lives of daring-do

Dm

There is mystery and adventure

Gm

They lie waiting there for you

Dm A7 Dm

So step inside and find the other you

Dm

Take the high road tomorrow

Gm

But the low road today

Dm

Reading other's sorrow

A7

Might just be the only way

Dm

The father hears confession

Gm

While the mother's feeling blue

Dm A7 Dm

These characters do what you want them to

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

In these pages we consume

Gm A7

Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

And through the age-s words are born

Gm A7

Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

Dm

There's glamour and dementia

Gm

A message from the tomb

Dm

Staircase to the heavens

A7

And secrets in the room

Dm

When you are riding on that dark horse

Gm

To the one that got away

Dm A7 Dm

There's no regrets and no dues left to pay

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

'Cause in these pages we consume

Gm A7

Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

And through the age-s words are born

Gm A7

Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

Dm

Drifting down the river of the make believe

We laugh and grieve

Dm

Hoping for an ending of our own design

Where all is fine

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

In these pages we consume

Gm A7

Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

And through the age-s words are born

Gm A7

Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

Dm Gm Dm Gm A7

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

In these pages we consume

Gm A7

Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom

Gm7 C Am7 Dm

And through the age-s words are born... (fade)
