William, to whom the world was given 
D             G         A         D   G  A 
Dared not disturb the sleep of friends 
         Bm                    G                         Asus 
But one time in the night he turned to his wife and he whispered 
   A                                    D     G 
Remember when I was young and you were Maggie? 
 
Chorus: 
      D        A            Bm             G         A      D 
Cause I been thinkin' about you and me and everybody in between 
     G          D                A 
It seems we've suffered one too many dreams 
     D           A                   Bm 
Of things that weren't so bad, it's just 
 G                A         D 
They were never things that we could trust 
    G   D/A               A       Bm   A  G 
Are we still pretending they're enough? 
 
  D   G A    D  /B /A   D   G A    D  /B /A

Maggie by whom all hearts were measured 
Kissed William softly on the cheek and said, 
Oh, it always amazed me how someone could come to the edge of the world 
Drop a stone down the side and turn and return to the very same life 
I remember when I was young and you were William 
 
CHORUS 
        G  D/A               A        Bm  A G 
...We must stop pretending they're enough 
 
     A 
But what of the interval moment 
Bm              G     D          G 
When you feel nothing and I feel nothing? 
A                             D        G 
Maggie, I'm trembling in this interval moment, 
Bm             G       D        Gmaj7 
When you feel nothing and I feel nothing? 
 
Maggie by whom all hearts were measured 
kissed William softly on the cheek and said 
Sometimes William, William sometimes 
You've got to open up the windows and let the wind blow through 
 
You've got to let it blow through you and me and everybody in between 
It seems we've suffered one too many dreams 
Of things that weren't so bad, it's just 
They were never things that we could trust 
    G     D/F#                A 
We will release them as they turn to dust 
 
CHORUS 
        G  D/A               A 
...Are we still pretending they're enough? 
D/A                A             D/F#                G               D 
Still pretending they're enough, still pretending they're enough for us 
 
    D          A         D/F#        G
