xBand: 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.

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
