INTRO
VERSE 1
Now you see me, now you don't Don't ask me where I'm at 'Cause I'm a million miles away Treated like a forbidden heel Don't say my thoughts are not for real Or you won't see me again

CHORUS Am I here or am I there Or am I playing on the stairs Am I in my room with my toys I am the disappearing boy
BRIDGE 1
VERSE 2 When I walk in crowded rooms I feel as if it is my doom I know that I don't belong In that room I see her I see her and she's with him I turn and then I'm gone

CHORUS Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home My whereabouts are now unknown I vanished from all your joy I'm the disappearing boy

BRIDGE 2 I have my doubts Of where I belong It's something to think about

BRIDGE 3
CHORUS Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home My whereabouts are now unknown I vanished from all your joy I'm the disappearing boy

How to read these chord schemes

1 - chord name, 2 - chord designation, 3 - chord scheme

Chord name

There is the name of a chord before the symbols. If it's "*" added to a name, it means that this chord is played in different positions during the song.

Chord designation

There are 6 symbols in a designation, read it from left to right. The first symbol defines the thickest string (6th string), the second symbol defines 5th string and so on.

"0" means open string

"x" means this string isnt played

"Number" means number of a fret.

Example:

x02220

6th string isnt played
5th string is open
4th string is played on 2nd fret
3rd string is played on 2nd fret
2nd string is played on 2nd fret
1st string is open

Chord scheme

Imagine that you are looking at the fret while playing guitar - the closest string to your eyes is the 6th, the thickest string. There are 6 horizontal lines defines strings, the upper one is the thinnest string (1st string).
And there are 4 lines defined frets - no exact frets numbers defined.
In some schemes there is a thick line on the left - it defines the nut.

  • "0" means open string
  • "x" means this string isnt played
  • Fat dots mean fingers positions

Example:

G5 355xxx
