Verse 2

It's a funny sort of haze

All full of dreams of yesterdays

And the dreams are so real you could cry

And you know the grass is green

On the side you've never seen

And the thought is what helps you get by

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3

As I grow a little more

And wonder what this all is for

And the brass ring is slipping away

I will keep the glasses near

Maybe shed a quiet tear

Maybe smile inside as I say

[repeat chorus]

Repeat guitar solo
