I Dont Sleep I Dream

Biography:

R.E.M. was an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by drummer Bill Berry, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist/backing vocalist Mike Mills, and lead vocalist Michael Stipe. One of the first alternative rock bands, R.E.M. was noted for Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style, Stipe's distinctive vocal quality and obscure lyrics, Mills's melodic basslines and backing vocals, and Berry's tight, economical style of drumming.

R.E.M. released its first single—"Radio Free Europe"—in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone.

{During last verse Stipe plays an A barre chord}

{Riff}
I'm looking for an interruption,
do you believe?
You looking, did my dreams
Be prepared for anything
You come into my little scene
Hooray hooray hip hip hooray
There's one thing I can guarantee:
You won't have to dig, dig too deep

G Em
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep,
G Em
I don't sleep, I dream
G Em G Em
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

{Riff}
Are you looking to drive my dreams?
You here to run my screens?
You come, deliver my demons
Hooray hooray hip hip hooray
Are you coming to ease my headache?
Do you give good head?
Am I good in bed?

G Em
I don't know, I guess so
G Em
I don't sleep, I dream
G Em G Em
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

{Riff}
I'm looking for an interruption,
can you believe?
Some medicine for my headache
Hooray hooray hip hip hooray
I'm pitching for a new direction
Pinch me when I wake
Don't tell me my dreams are fake

G Em
you leave me to lay, you touch me deep,
G Em
I don't sleep, I dream
G Em G Em
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

G Em
Leave me to lay, but touch me deep,
G Em
I don't sleep, I dream
G Em G Em
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

{Riff to end}
