In dreams
(rather spoken than sung, single chords : )
C Am
A candy colored
clown they call the sandman
Dm G7
tiptoes to my room every night
C Am
just to sprinkle stardust and
to whisper,
F G7 C
“Go to sleep, everything is
all right.”

1. I close my eyes, then I drift away,
G - G7
C
into the magic night I softly say
C Dm
a silent prayer, like dreamers
do,
G - G7 C
then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.
C G
- G7 F G
C
2. In dreams I walk with you, in dreams I talk to you,
C7 - D D7
in dreams you're mine all of the time, we're
C DmG C Dm G7
together in
dreams, in dreams.

Fm C C Fm

3. But just before the dawn, I awake and find you're gone,
C Dm G G7
C
I can't help it, I can't help
it if I cry, I remember that you said goodbye.
C7
F G - G7 C F G - G7
It's too bad that all these
things can only happen in my
dreams,
C D7
DmG C
only in
dreams, in beautiful dreams.
