Capo II


INTRO: Bm


Bm
I was not myself last night
Couldn't set things right
                     C
With apologies or flowers
Bm
Out of place as a cryin' clown
Who could only frown
                         C
And the play went on for hours


D
And as I lived my role
I swore I'd sell my soul
    G                  Am
For one love who would stand by me (who would stand by me)
                                G
And give me back the gift of laughter
G                  Am
One love who would stand by me (who would stand by me)
And after making love we'd


C
Dream a bit of style (dream)
Bm
We'd dream a bunch of friends
C
Dream each other's smile
F#
And dream it never ends


Bm
I was not myself last night
In the morning light
                           C
I could see the change was showing
Bm
Like a child who was always poor
Reaching out for more
                        C
I could feel the hunger growing


D
And as I lost control
I swore I'd sell my soul
    G              Am
For one love who would sing my song (who would sing my song)
                          G
And fill this emptiness inside me
G              Am
One love who would sing my song (who would sing my song)
And lay beside me while we'd


C
Dream a bit of style
Bm
We'd dream a bunch of friends
C
Dream each other's smile
F#
And dream it never ends


B                               E
All my dreams are lost and I can't sleep
F#                              B
And sleep alone could ease my mind
B                               E
All my tears have dried and I can't weep
F#
Old emotions
         C
May they rest in peace and 


Bm
Dream, dream a bunch of friends 
C
Rest in peace
F#                            B
And dream, dream it never ends

D
And as I live my role control
I swore I'd sell my soul
    G              Am
For one love who would sing my song (who would sing my song)
                          G
And fill this emptiness inside me
     G              Am
Only one love who would sing my song (who would sing my song)
And lay beside me while we'd dream
     G              Am
Only one love who would sing my song (who would sing my song)
And lay beside me while we'd dream
