Verse1
[D]Flashing ba[Fm#]ck t[G]hrough the endless [Fm#]photographs
[G]Such faces and s[Fm#]uch memories, [Em] Can't it [A]be, [Bm]can it b[G]e
[Em7]I'm j[F#m7]ust dr[Bm]eaming I[Em7]'m lu[F#m7]st lea[Bm]ving,
[D]Leaving the ground again
Verse 2
[D]Flashing [Fm#]back, I[G]'m supposed to be so realis[Fm#]tic,
[G]So objective, so [Fm#]realis[Em]tic I[A]t's just [Bm]a tri[G]ck
[Em7]A t[F#m7]rick of the [Bm]light O[Em7]n [F#m7] my [Bm] eyes
[Em7]I [F#m7]prefer the l[Bm]ies, I[D] prefer the air
Bridge
Don[C]'t call me a fool (yo[Em]u're a fool) Don'[F]t call me a fool (you're a fool)
[G]Take your banners aw[F]ay from my eyes, [C]Take away your dogma and take [F]away your lies
[Em]Don't call me a fool (youre a fool), such a fool
Verse 4
Flashing back, There were better times at last, it seems
I'm liaising with my dreams Closer to The one I am
The floating, the floating litlle man Flashing back
Chorus
Don't call me a fool, don't call (you're a fool), don't call me a fool (you're a fool)
call me a fool (you're a fool) Take her away (you're a fool) your prayer books and your strain
The things you did again and again When I was so young
Verse 5
But now I know I prefer to flash back Sleeping on the way I do Maybe that's the only truth
Flashing back with you (you're a dreamer, you're a fool, you're a fool, you're a fool)
