(Intro)
[A] [Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2]
(Verse 1)
Let the [A]river [Dsus2]rock you like a [A]cradle[Dsus2]
[A]Climb to the [Dsus2]treetops, child, if you're [A]able[Dsus2]
Let your [A]hands tie a k[Dsus2]not across the [A]table.[Dsus2]
[A]Come and [F#m]touch the things you can[Bm]not feel.[Dsus2]
And[A] close your[Dsus2] fingertips and[A] fly where I can't[Dsus2] hold you
[A] Let the [Dsus2]sun-rain fall and [A]let the dewy clouds [Dsus2]enfold you
[A] And maybe [Dsus2]you can sing to [A]me the words [Dsus2]I just told you,[A]
If [F#m]all the things you [Bm]feel ain't what they [Dsus2]seem.
[A]And don't [Dsus2]mind me [A]'cause I ain't [Dsus2]nothin' but a [A]dream.[Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2]
(Verse 2)
The [A]mocking bird [Dsus2]sings each different [A]song[Dsus2]
Each [A]song has [Dsus2]wings - they won't stay [A]long.[Dsus2]
[A]Do those who [Dsus2]hear think he's [A]doing wrong?[Dsus2]
[A]While the church bell [Dsus2]tolls its one-note [A]song[Dsus2]
And[A] the school bell is [Dsus2]tinkling to the [A]throng.[Dsus2]
[A]Come here [F#m]where your ears cannot [Bm]hear.[Dsus2]
And [A]close your [Dsus2]eyes, child, and [A]listen to what I'll [Dsus2]tell you
[A] Follow [Dsus2]in the darkest [A]night the sounds that may im[Dsus2]pel you
[A] And the song that [Dsus2]I am singing may [A]disturb or serve to [Dsus2]quell you[A]
If al[F#m]l the sounds you hear [Bm]ain't what they [Dsus2]seem,
Then [A]don't [Dsus2] mind me [A]'cause I ain't [Dsus2]nothin' but[A] a dream[Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2]
(Verse 3)
[A] The rising [Dsus2]smell of fresh-cut g[A]rass[Dsus2]
Smo[A]thered cities [Dsus2]choke and yell with [A]fuming gas[Dsus2]
I [A]hold some [Dsus2]grapes up to t[A]he sun[Dsus2]
And [A]their flavour [Dsus2]breaks upon my [A]tongue.[Dsus2]
With[A] ea---[Dsus2]ger tongues [A]we taste our strife[Dsus2]
A[A]nd fill our [Dsus2]lungs with [A]seas of life.[Dsus2]
[A]Come taste and [F#m]smell the waters [Bm]of our time.[Dsus2]
And[A] close your[Dsus2] lips, child, so[A] softly I might[Dsus2] kiss you,[A]
Let your [Dsus2]flower perfume [A]out and let the winds ca[Dsus2]ress you.[A]
As I [Dsus2]walk on through the gar[A]den, I am hoping I don't[Dsus2] miss you[A]
If all[F#m] the things you taste ain't [Bm]what they seem,[Dsus2]
[A]Then don't [Dsus2]mind me '[A]cause I ain't [Dsus2]nothin' bu[A]t a dream.[Dsus2] [A] [Dsus2]
(Verse 4)
The su[Dsus2]n and moon both a[A]rise[Dsus2] [A]
And we'll [Dsus2]see them soon through [A]days and nights[Dsus2]
But [A]now silver leaves [Dsus2]are mirrors, bring de[A]lights.[Dsus2]
And the [A]colours of your [Dsus2]eyes are fiery [A]bright,[Dsus2]
While [A]darkness blin[Dsus2]ds the skies with [A]all its light.[Dsus2]
[A]Come see whe[F#m]re your eyes can[Bm]not see.[Dsus2]
And [A]close your [Dsus2]eyes, child, and [A]look at what I'll [Dsus2]show you;[A]
Let your [Dsus2]mind go reeling out [A] and let the breezes [Dsus2]blow you,[A]
And maybe [Dsus2]when we meet then [A] suddenly I will [Dsus2]know you.[A]
If al[F#m]l the things you see [Bm]ain't what they seem[Dsus2],
Then [A] don't [Dsus2]mind me [A]'cause I ain't [Dsus2]nothin' [A]but a dream.[Dsus2]
