          D#m                       B
I got two open eyes, now I'm on the other side
            G#m                  C#
Happy in my second life, headset on
           D#m                      B
I could be anything, let me be your Midas king
                 G#m                           C#
Think of all the joy I'd bring, touching everything

            B
I've been trying to catch a fever dream
        G#m
In the desert, give me deep blue sea
         D#m
We ain't nothing but the things we've seen
        C#
Plug me in

Chorus:
                G#m                      B
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
               D#m                       C#
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
                G#m                        B
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
            D#m                    C#
The new melodies rise up with the Sun
            D#m
Give me the future

Suddenly found my feet, dreaming of electric sheep
Just a little space to breathe, feeling joy serene

I've been trying to catch a fever dream
In the desert, give me deep blue sea
We ain't nothing but the things we've seen
Plug me in

Chorus:
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
The new melodies rise up with the Sun

         B
I tasted endless love that takes control
D#m                        B                    C#
Endless love and I wanted more (So give me the future)
         B
I tasted endless love that takes control
D#m                        B                     C#
Endless love and I wanted more (Just give me the future)

             D#m
Why would we leave?
              B
Why would we leave?
G#m
Miles and miles of fake beauty
C#                                 D#m
It's good for you, it's good for me
               B
Why would we leave?
             G#m       C#
Why would we leave? Uh

Chorus:
So give me the future, it's golden and bright
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
Now nothing is certain and the song isn't done
The new melodies rise up with the Sun

I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more
(So give me the future)
I tasted endless love that takes control
Endless love and I wanted more
Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights
