Only A Dream
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
I Gcan Drecall the sound Cof the wind G
CAs it blew Gthrough the trees and Cthe trees would Dbend
I Gcan Drecall the smell Cof the rain G
COn a hot summer Gnight
CComing through the screen D
AmI'd crawl in your F#7bed when the D7lightning Em7flashed
CAnd I'd still be Bm7there when the Cstorm had Dpassed
GDead to the Dworld to the Cmorning Gcast
CIts light all Daround your Groom
Couplet
GWe lived on a Dstreet where Cthe tall elm Gshade
CWas as green as the Ggrass and as Ccool as a Dblade
GThat you held in Dyour teeth as we Clay on our Gbacks
CStaring up at the Gblue and the Cblue stared Dback
I Amused to F#7believe we were D7just like those Em7trees
CWe'd grown just as Bm7tall and as Cproud as we Dpleased
GWith our feet Don the ground Cand our arms in Gthe breeze
CUnder a Dsheltering Gsky
Refrain
AmTwirl me F#7about and D7twirl me Em7around
CLet me grow Bm7dizzy and Cfall to the Dground
GAnd when I look Dup at Cyou looking down G
CSay it was Donly a Gdream
Couplet
A Gbig truck was Dparked in the Cdrive one day G
CThey wrapped us in Gpaper and Cmoved us Daway
GYour room was no Dlonger next Cdoor to Gmine
CAnd this kid Gsister thing Cwas old by that Dtime
AmBut oh how our F#7dreams went D7bump in the Em7night
CAnd the voices Bm7downstairs Cgetting into a Dfight
GAnd the next day a Dsilence you could Ccut with a Gknife
CAnd feel like a Dblade at your throat G
Refrain
AmTwirl me F#7about and D7twirl me Em7around
CLet me grow Bm7dizzy and Cfall to the Dground
GAnd when I look Dup at Cyou looking down G
CSay it was Donly a Gdream
Couplet
GThe day you left Dhome you Cgot an early Gstart
I Cwatched your Gcar back Cout in the Ddark
I Gopened the Ddoor to your Croom down the Ghall
I Cturned on the Glight
CAnd all that I Dsaw
AmWas a bed and a F#7desk and D7couple of Em7tacks
CNo sign of Bm7someone who Cexpects to be Dback
GIt must have been Done hell of a Csuitcase you Gpacked
Refrain
AmTwirl me F#7about and D7twirl me Em7around
CLet me grow Bm7dizzy and Cfall to the Dground
GAnd when I look Dup at Cyou looking down G
CSay it was Donly a Gdream
