Em C There is fiction in the space between G D The lines on your page of memories Em C Write it down, but it doesn't mean G D You're not just telling stories There is fiction in the space between You and reality You will do and say anything To make your everyday life seem less mundane There is fiction in the space between You and me There's a science fiction in the space between You and me A fabrication of a grand scheme Where I am the scary monster I eat the city and as I leave the scene In my spaceship I am laughing In your remembrance of your bad dream There's no one but you standing D C Leave the pity and the blame for G the ones who do not speak D You write the words to get respect C Em and compassion and for posterity C Em You write the words and make believe G D Em there is truth in the space between There is fiction in the space between You and everybody Give us all what we need Give us one more sad sordid story But in the fiction of the space between G D Em C Sometimes a lie is the best thing G D Em C G D Sometimes a lie is the best thing Em C G D Oh, the best thing Em C G D Is the best thing | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC  D  Em  F#  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
