Days Like Masquerades
guitar tabs lyrics
Band: The Academy Is
Song Title: Days Like Masquerades
Album: Lost in Pacific Time EP
Fun song to play, I wanted to point out that I have no clue how the bridge goes and also
when playing the first part of the verse, you let that chord ring and then rest until
end of the verse and then play the next chord tabbed. Thats about it.

Lyrics:
I said, �Hey you, this is me.
The idealist inside that holds your love on a string,
wound and tied like kites to all your hopes and dreams
What a tangled mess that they�ve turned out to be
Take a breath, and ask yourself what matters.�
Days like masquerades, silent, hiding in the shadows,
Stripped of their disguise leave you haunted as you scatter
But you�re always on my mind
You�re always on my mind
When you feel lost out at sea,
surrounded by on equal sides the same routine,
Becoming what you swore you�d never be
Don�t distress, there�s a big bright place if you stay close to me
Take a breath, and I�ll show you what matters
You�re always on my mind
You�re always on my mind
Days like masquerades, take a breath and feel what matters
Days like masquerades, take a breath and feel what matters
Days like masquerades, take a breath and feel what matters
Take a breath and feel it
