Better than a dream
Katie Melua
D# Dm A# D#
I used to dream myself to somewhere else each night
Am Gm
I dreamed in colour,
Bb Ab, A#
'cos I lived in black and white.
D# Gm
Until I chanced upon
Cm Ab
this road that led to you,
D#
I couldn't see
E#m A#
How anything could be
Chorus:
D#, E#m A#
.. Better than a dream
Gm, Cm Ab D#
Stranger than my wild imagination
E#m A#
If this is a real sensation,
D# F#, B, Bb
it's better than a dream.
D# E#m A#
Higher than the moon,
Gm, Cm Ab D#
Hazy like a beautiful illusion.
E#m A#
Crazy and in confusion,
D# E#m F# Bb
And better than a dream.
D# Dm A# D#
I used to wish I was beyond some distant door,
Am Gm
I knew there must be more
Bb Ab, A#
to life and now I'm sure.
D# Gm
No dreams of pirate caves,
Cm Ab D#
or Indian braves, or magic carpets could
E#m A#
Ever be this good,
Chorus..
D#
And better than a dream.
