[ Mirage von Tommy James ]


Intro: Cellos (Eighth Notes) W/Trash Organ & Harp): A   D   E   A

	A            D                            E
	I see you standing in the alleys and the hallways (wait a second!)
	        A
	You're gone now
	A          D                                    E
	I run to touch you but you vanish through the doorways
	    A
	And oh how
	 E
	Hard it is to live without you, I loved everything about you
	 G
	Now I know you're really gone, but my imagination
	    A
	Is so strong


Pre-Chorus:
	                     C#m
	(1: That  2: Then) I see you comin' into view
	A          C#m
	  And your face is tellin' me
	F#m                   E
	Oh, yeah, oh, want to be by my side
	F#m                   E
	Oh, yeah, oh, now it finally died      (1: (wait a second!)
	                                        2: (here it comes again!))

Chorus:
	A                         D        E
	  Mirage, that's all you are to me
	A                     D Bm  E
	  Mirage, something I only see


	A            D                            E
	So I keep walking through the alleys and the hallways  
       A
	Where are you
	A            D                            E
	I keep remembering the kissing in the doorways 
        A
	The car, too
	 E
	How it all comes back to me, the movies every Saturday
          G
	The place we used to go to eat, I want so much to have it
        A
	Like it used to be

Coda (Repeat To Fade; Lp Mix Omits Backing Vocals):
	 A         D              E                    A
	Just a mirage, (just a mirage) that's all you are to me
	 A         D              E                      A
	Just a mirage, (just a mirage) something that I only see
