Verse 1:
Dreamed I was a fireman
I just smoked and
watched you burn
Dreamed I was an astronaut
I shot you down
like a juggernaut
Dreamed we were still going out
Had that one a few times now
Woke up to find we were not
It’s good to be awake
Interlude: F-Dm-Gm-Eb- x2

Verse 2:
Dreamed I was a tidal wave
I ravaged your coast
There were no survivors
Dreamed I was your landlord
I showed you place
when you had lovers
If I was a vampire
I wouldn’t suck your blood
Then I dreamed I was you
Sweetest dream I have had
Chorus:
If you could hear the
dreams I’ve had my dear
They would give you
nightmares for a wee
But you’re not here
and I can never sleep
Come home so I
can be a creep
Post Chorus: Eb-Bb-B-F#- x2
Verse 3:
Dreamed I was a dream
I stole you away
away in your sleep
Saved you from a fire
A gun for hire
I introduced you to a vampire
A wave crashed on the beach
We rolled around
in its foamy grasp
Kissing in the chaos
of a kelpy sea
Seems I couldn’t
save you from me
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Maybe I’m obsessive
to think like this
Probably not impressing you
with my cheap tricks
Honey it’s depressing what
depression does to some
I’ll play the part for hours
But I know you’ll never come
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro: Bb(hold)
