[Verse 1]
       E
I will come for
                     A
you at night time,
       E
I will raise you
                   B
from your sleep,
       E
I will kiss you in
               A
 four places,
        E
As I go running along
               B
 your street,
       E
I will squeeze the
                   A
life out of you,
         E
You will make me laugh
                   B
 and make me cry,
            E
And we will never
             A
forget it,
         E
You will make me
 call your name,
          A
and I'll shout it to the
               B      B
 blue summer,   sky.

[Chorus]
           E
And we may never
              A
 meet again,
   E
So shed your skin and
            B
lets get started,
And you will
 E                 A
throw-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow,
           B            B
 your arms around me,

Yeah, you will
 E                 A
 throw-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow,
           B            B
 your arms around me.

[Verse 2]
  E
I dreamed of you at
              A
 night time,
      E
And I watched you
                B
in your sleep,
  E                        A
I met you in high places,
               E
I touched your head and
                     B
 touched your feet,
          E
So if you disappear
                A
out of view,
          E
You know, I will never
                 B
 say good-bye,
             E
And though I try to
             A
 forget it,
         E
You will make me
 call your name,
           A
 and I'll shout it to
                   B      B
the blue summer,   sky.
