verse riff = Am C G D

[Verse 1]
      Am            C      G    D
Oh tornados breathy fury
Am            C       G   D
touches and caresses
Am   C     G         D  
wild and destructive are
    Am          C         G   D
the forces it expresses
       Am               C         G   D
it's a driven wind that tortures
Am            C         G   D
first what it teaches
   Am             C      G     D
it washes off the tinsel yeah
  Am            C        G   D
into a thousand pieces


[Chorus]
    Dm     C          E7         Am C G D
and oh the real world haunt me
    Dm     C          E7         Am C G D
and oh the real world haunt me          haunt me


[Verse 2]
The wasteland of our living
is what my dreams are made of
i'm finding jewels in the junkyard
if only they were honest
like a word in a sentence
or one note in a whole song
is a blasted sun that burns burns
up the vegetation


[Chorus]
and oh the real world haunt me
and oh the real world haunt me
haunt me


[Verse 3]
Oh the desert of my memories
shimmer in the still air
silent contemplative are
the images i see there
but in my hollow bones
i feel a large confusion
let my dreams be overthrown yeah
i tire of illusion


[Chorus]
and oh the real world haunt me
and oh the real world haunt me
and oh tt haunt me
and oh tt haunt me
haunt me


[Verse 4]
Like a word in a sentence
or one note in a whole song
is a blasted sun that burns burns
up the vegetation


[Chorus]
and oh oh the real world haunt me
and oh oh the real world haunt me
and oh oh it haunt me
and oh oh it haunt me
haunt me
haunt me
haunt me
