[Chorus]

I had a dream about you last night

At first I took it as a sign

Some things are better left alone
Am7               G           G7
So I told myself it’s fine

[Verse]
C
Our time was short and sweet and simple
Am7
Uncomplicated by the past
F
Exchanging words in points of quiet
G                               G7
Unaware of who’d talk last
C
We gelled quickly and in seconds
Am7
I thought that I’d known you for years
F
You’d think we’d have lasted longer
Am7                     G7
But I wouldn’t shed a tear

[Chorus] (strum once for each chord)
C
I had a dream about you last night
Am7
Your figure warm and far away
F
I had a dream about you last night
G
Eyes shut hoping you’d stay

[Verse 2]
C
But I think fondly of our time
Am7
Exchanging laughs and songs alike
F
You were the sugar to my sour
G                               G7
A sheer joy so childlike
C
And now I see from a distance
Am7
I watch you flourish from afar
F
Sending thoughts and all well wishes
G7
Writing this song on my guitar

[Chorus]
C
I had a dream about you last night
Am7
Your figure warm and far away
F
I had a dream about you last night
G7
Eyes shut hoping you’d stay
C
And I still think about you sometimes
Am7
Pondering what it could’ve been
F
But I would never trade the time we had
G7                               G7
For all of that was a win

[Outro] (strum once for each chord)
C
I had a dream about you last night
Am7
And you said your last goodbye
F
I woke up to wipe my tears
G7
Although I said I’d never cry
C
