Cliches Of The World B-Movie

| E5 | E5 |

Em              Am
Sunset over the high-rise,
Em        C
by a motorway
Em                 Am
A little man looks up at the sky,
Em            C
an uneventful end to a wasted day
[Chorus] (Guitar part *)
Em
  Close-up on the man at the window,
C
  Looking at the street down below
Am
  It's obvious he's got things on his mind
Em                                         (A5 D5 E5)
  He shakes his head, pulls down the blind

Em                   Am
He start's writing a letter,
Em                   C
to make it perfectly clear
Em                                Am
He's just a man who's reached the end of his rope,
Em                            C
expressing his doubts and his fears
[Chorus] (Guitar part *)
Em
In a world, feels so lonely and afraid
C
Disillusioned by the promises they made
Am
It's a pity that it ended up this way
Em                        (A5 D5 E5)
Life is just a cliché

Em             Am
I'm gonna do tomorrow,
Em               C
what I did yesterday
            Em                     Am
It's such a dull routine, somebody cut this scene
      Em
It's such a boring cliché

C          F
Live life, day to day
C        F
Seems so passé
C              F
Everything you hear and say
C            F
Just another cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am
  Like an actor on a movie screen
F
  Living out someone else's dream
Dm
  Living out a total misconception
Am                               Am
  Reality, a false perception

Em          Am
Whoa ..        It's such a wasted life
Em          C
Whoa ..        Without any conclusion
Em          Am      Em
Whoa ..

C          F
Days drift into days
    C         F
His life just slips away
C         F
People so blasé
C              F
Everything's a cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am          F
     Yes it is
       Dm
Yes it is
        Am
Just an illusion
        Am       (A5 D5 Em)
Just an illusion

Em                 Am
Moonlight over the high-rise,
Em                C
at the end of the day
Em                   Am
The little man is asleep in his bed,
Em                C
tucked up, safely away

Am                                        F
  In his dreams he's taken away by alien beings to another galaxy
                      Dm
Deep in space, to a planet where a man can live out his fantasies,
                     Am                  Am    C   C
and experience unimaginable pleasures
Em
But morning comes and soon the realities of life will
Em                      (E5 G5 A5)
Shatter his illusions,
Am
and the cliches of the world will bring him down,
Am
but still he's waiting for a change

C          F
Days drift into days
    C         F
His life just slips away
C             F
Everything is passé
C              F
Everything's a cliché
[Chorus] (Guitar part **)
Am          F
     Yes it is
       Dm
Yes it is
        Am
Just an illusion
        Am        (A5 D5 Em)
Just an illusion
       F
Yes it is
       Dm       Em   E
Yes it is
Am
  See the sunlight over the motorway
F
  The little man, with anger in his eyes
Dm
  Stands by the window, looks at the sky
