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

Verse 2:
F                     Dm
Dreamed I was a tidal wave
  Gm
I ravaged your coast
           Eb
There were no survivors
F                      Dm
Dreamed I was your landlord
Gm
  I showed you place
     Eb
when you had lovers
F             Dm
If I was a vampire
Gm           Eb
  I wouldn't suck your blood
F                Dm
Then I dreamed I was you
Gm       F            Eb
Sweetest dream I have had


Chorus:
   Bb        F
If you could hear the 
Eb
dreams I've had my dear
Bb
  They would give you
Cm               Eb
nightmares for a week
    Bb         F
But you're not here 
    Eb
and I can never sleep
Bb             Cm
  Come home so I 
         Eb
can be a creep


Post Chorus: Eb-Bb-B-F#- x2


Verse 3:
F               Dm
Dreamed I was a dream
   Gm
I stole you away 
 Eb
away in your sleep
F
Saved you from a fire
  Dm
A gun for hire
Gm                 Eb
  I introduced you to a vampire
  F                   Dm
A wave crashed on the beach
Gm
  We rolled around 
   Eb
in its foamy grasp
F
Kissing in the chaos 
     Dm
of a kelpy sea
Gm
Seems I couldn't 
F             Eb
save you from me


(Repeat Chorus)


Bridge:
Bb            Gm
  Maybe I'm obsessive 
   F          Eb
to think like this
Bb               Cm
  Probably not impressing you
     F        Eb
with my cheap tricks
Bb              Gm
  Honey it's depressing what
  F                Eb
depression does to some
Bb                     Cm
I'll play the part for hours
      Gm          F     Eb
But I know you'll never come


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro: Bb(hold)
