John Lennon - #9 Dream Tabs

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard

John Lennon
#9 Dream (1974)
(Lennon)

One of Lennon's sweetest tunes. Large parts of the composition and the production 
sound very much like Harrison - from the slide guitar intro to the chord pattern 
in the chorus and outro recalling "My Sweet Lord".

Took a walk down the street

Through the heat whispered trees

  Somebody call out my name    as it started to rain

   Two spirits dancing so strange

More I cannot say,           what more can I say? 

              G
On a river of sound
                      G
Through the mirror go round, round
                  Em(7) A  Em(7) A  Em(7) A   Em(7) A  
I thought I could feel,    feel,    feel,     feel

 Music touching my soul,  something warm, sudden cold
