[Verse 1]
        C              Am
I had a dream that you died
Dsus4
We’re not the closest
F            G
But you’re a friend of mine
  C              Am
I woke up and realized
Dsus4                     F
It was my subconscious showing
           G
me what it would be like
F                 Em
If this situation gets
any more out of hand
G
All of my sorta-friends would be
       Dsus4        G
like, “Woah I kinda knew that guy”
F
So I keep fighting each day
Em
Against this avalanche
G
I feel like a lava lamp
    Dsus4              G
The way that I’ve been totally
               F   G
fucked by time

[Chorus]
C
I had a dream that you died
C/B                   Am   G
Somehow made it about me
                       C
I had a dream that you died
C/B                   Am  G
Somehow made it about me

[Verse 2]
            C            Am
And I had a dream that I saw
Dsus4
A blue whale jump out of
    F              G
the water standing on the dock
   C                  Am
It took me back to Omaha
          Dsus4
For no reason other than
                F
the happiness I felt
          G
That so often seems lost
F
And then I got to thinkin
Em
How recently a lot
G
I’ve pondered suicide
            Dsus4         G
But I could never do that to my mom
F
So I keep fighting each day
Em
Against this maelstrom
G
I feel like a chia pet
           Dsus4
the way my hair
                  G
looks dumb and my heart
                    F  G
is made of stone

C
I had a dream that I saw

A blue whale I was happy
C
I had a dream that I saw

A blue whale I was happy
                       C
I had a dream that you died
                       C/B

I had a dream that you died
