Here's the order of the figures for preverse1:
Fig 1 - Fig2 - Fig1(16th note strumming) - Fig2 - Fig2- Fig3-

Verse
|D2 |A |C9 |G |
D2                             A
as far as you take me, that's where I believe
     C9                      G
the realm of soft delusions, floating on the leaves
      D2                    A
on a distant shoreline, she waves her arms to me
    C9                         G
as all the thought police, are closing in for sleep
     D2                A
the dilly dally, of my bright lit stay
     C9
the steam of my misfortunes
     G                       A
has given me the power to be afraid
          C9       G
and in my mind I'm everyone
A               C9
    and in my mind

Pre-Verse
Fig 1  - Fig 2
	       without a care in this whole world
Fig 1(16th note strumming) -  Fig 2
                              without a care in this whole world
Fig 1  - Fig 2   (add Fig 4)
                without a care in this life
Fig 2 (add Fig 4)                        Fig 3
        It's what you take that makes it right

Chorus
|D2 |A |
C9                       G
Porcelina of the oceans blue?   (maybe it's sea?)
|D2 |A |
C9         G
Porcelina, Porcelina

Verse
D2                   A
In the slipstream of thoughtless thoughts
     C9                           G
the light of all that's good, the light of all that's true
         D2                   A
to the fringes gladly, I walk unadorned
       C9                           G
with gods and their creations, with filth and disease
D2             A
porcelina, she waits for me there
     C9
with seashell hissing lullabyes
    G                             A
and wispers fathom deep inside my own
       C9           G
hidden thoughts and alibis
A            C9
   my secret thoughts come alive

Pv3
Fig1  - Fig 2  (add Fig 4)
            without a care in this whole world
Fig1 (16th note strumming)   - Fig 2  (add Fig 4)
                               without a care in this whole world
Fig1 -  Fig 2   (add Fig 4)
            without a care in this life
Fig 2  (add Fig 4)               Fig 3
It's what you take that makes it right

Fig 2 (add Fig 4)
And in my mind I'm everyone
Fig 2 (add Fig 4)
And in my mind I'm everyone
|Fig 2 (add Fig 4)             Fig3
And in my mind I'm everyone of you

Bridge
