[Intro]
A


[Verse 1]
A
He had a dream,
A
It was haunting him at night,
A
It would fly into his hands,
      F#m      D
So he tried to cage it,
       F#m  D
But he only made it fly away.


[Interlude]
A   Gadd2  D/F#
A   Gadd2  D/F#


[Pre-Chorus]
           A  Gadd2  D/F#
He heard a song,
                       A   Gadd2  D/F#
It was running through his mind,
       A       Gadd2    D/F#
It was singing from the past,
      F#m        E        D        E
So he tried, (he tried to sing it),
       F#m   E  D         E       D    Dm7
But he found he could not make it last.


[Chorus]
             A  E     D
The world is falling apart,
A    E       D
He's getting older,
A   E         D              A   G  D
And there's a funeral in his heart.
                    A     G  D
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooohoooooh.


[Verse 2]
       A   Gadd2  D/F#
He was alone,
                  A   Gadd2  D/F#
With a picture of his life,
       A       Gadd2   D/F#
On the outside looking in,
      F#m     E        D         E
So he tried, (tried to change it),
       F#m       E         D      E      D    Dm7
But he lost, (he lost) the person he had been).


[Chorus]
             A  E     D
The world is falling apart,
A    E       D
He's getting older,
A   E         D              A   G  D
And there's a funeral in his heart.


[Bridge]
C       G      D/F#      G
Thunder moving under the mountain,
C       G      D/F#
Thunder in his dreams,
C       G         D/F#      G
Hoping that there must be a word for,
C    G        A
Everything he means.


[Interlude]
A   Gadd2  D/F#
A   Gadd2  D/F#


[Verse 3]
         A   Gadd2  D/F#
He had a love,
                     A   Gadd2  D/F#
It was keeping him alive,
       A       Gadd2  D/F#
It was someone else   ago,
      F#m   E  D       E
So he tried to hide it,
       F#m  E    D     E      D    Dm7
But he knew he'd never let it go.


[Chorus]
             A  E     D
The world is falling apart,
A    E       D
He's getting older,
A   E         D              A   A  D
And there's a funeral in his heart.


[Outro]
             A  E     D
The world is falling apart,
A    E       D
He's getting older,
A   E         D              A
And there's a funeral in his heart.
A*
(And there’s a funeral in his heart),
A*
And there's a funeral in his heart, ah, ah aaaah.
 A*                            A   G  D
(And there’s a funeral) in his hea-eart,
       A   G  D
In his hea-eart,
       A   G  D  A G  E A
In his hea----------eart.
