[Verse] Am
Sun is going down, F
time is running
out, G
No one else
around Em
but me Am
Steady losing
light, F
steady losing my
mind G
Overshadows and Em
grinding teeth

[Bridge] Am
Without_you,
there_ain’t_no F
place for me to
hide G
Without_you,
there’s
no way I Em
could sleep
tonight Am
What I’d do for
a
little bit of F
peace and quiet G
with out you Em
I… keep

How to play Bad Dreams: key, chords and progression
To play Bad Dreams by Teddy Swims, think in A minor (no sharps or flats). It takes 4 chords: Am, F, G and Em.
The backbone of the song is Am – F – G – Em (i – VI – VII – v in A minor). Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.
Good to know: on guitar, F needs a barre or movable shape. Take the change into it slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
