[Intro Fade in]
C#m            A D#m F#m C#m x2


[Verse 1]
A           D#m             F#m                 C#m
 I shake my head and shiver    They smile and they
                                  A
Stab my back as they shake my hand
A            D#m      F#m            C#m
 Send out an SOS plea    Come quickly,
                       A   F#m C#m
I'm marooned in Monkeyland
                A     F#m C#m
Is there anyone there Who understands me?
          A    F#m C#m   A F#m C#m
Anyone at all?


[Verse 2]
A           F#m            C#m  A        F#m          C#m
 I'm idly staring at the sky     Did anybody hear me sigh?
D            E                 C#m
 A million stars are a moving sight
D            E                C#m
 To all you out there hearing me tonight


[Chorus 1]
N.C.                      A    F#m C#m
It's just a trick of the light
                                A    F#m C#m
Yeah, it's just a trick of the light
                       D        E         C#m
I have to know what is real And what is illusion
                D      E            C#m
Oh, how does it feel Beyond this confusion?
N.C.            A      F#m C#m  A F#m C#m
Is there anyone there?


[Verse 3]
A         F#m              C#m
 Do I dismiss this with a sigh?
C#m
Oh yes, you must from time to time
A             F#m             C#m
 And let the answers pass me by
C#m
More questions set to bend the mind
D         E                C#m
 Is my creator a God or a man? Yes, yours too
D               E                C#m
 Does someone somewhere care and Understand?


[Chorus 2]
N.C.                      A    F#m C#m
It's just a trick of the light
                                A    F#m C#m
Yeah, it's just a trick of the light
                       D        E         C#m
I have to know what is real And what is illusion
                    D      E            C#m
Tell me how does it feel Beyond this confusion?
N.C.                       A    F#m C#m
For all the tricks of the light
                                 A
Yeah, for all the tricks of the light
             F#m          C#m
Out there tonight, tonight
                       D        E         C#m
I have to know what is real And what is illusion
                D      E            C#m
Oh, how does it feel Beyond this confusion?
N.C.            A      F#m C#m
Is there anyone there?
                    A      F#m C#m
Oh, is there anyone there?


[Outro]
          A               F#m            C#m
Life's an optical illusion    Like other optical illusions
       A    F#m C#m        A   F#m C#m   A F#m
Oh, beware,         Oh, beware
         C#m         A
There it goes again
