(Lyrics are taken from elviscostello.com, Costello's official website.)
[C]I dreamed of [G]my old [F]lover las[C]t night
I [F]wonder [Am]if I [Dm]spoke out [C]loud
[G]If by[Dm] chance my [F]husband[Am] overheard
He'd [F]put my [Am]face back [Dm]in the [C]crowd
[C]His eyes were [G]clear and [F]gentle t[C]hen
He'd[F] kiss the [Am]worries [Dm]from my [C]brow
I [G]long to[Dm] fall to [F]sleep [Am]again
A[F]nd I wonder [Am]how he w[Dm]ould look [C]now
[C]Would our kids [G]grow stubborn o[F]r grow [C]strong
Would[F] their limbs b[Am]ronze insult [Dm]to the s[C]un
[G]I wonder [Dm]how it [F]feels but [Am]then
I[F] rarely [Am]dream of[Dm] anyon[C]e
In the[E] songs of [Am]shame and [G]tales of[C] dread
Where the[F]y seal the[Am] lovers [Dm]lips with [C]lead
An[E]d all th[Am]e vines wind [G]through their [C]eyes
[F]But no one knows this passion now
[Dm]No one knows this passion now
[C]So I keep thi[G]s fancy[F] to m[C]yself
I [F]keep my l[Am]ipstick [Dm]twisted t[C]ight
[G]I l[Dm]ong to fall to [F]sleep [Am]again
'Cos I[F] dreamed of [Am]my old[Dm] lover l[C]ast night
