Judy Collins - Dreaming
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
I'm twenty-one and I'm five foot nine
Em
Got a face and a body to change your mind
C D G
I'm a picture, so fine to see
[Verse 2]
Whenever I walk the streets of town
Em
The men and the boys they all fall down
C D G
Saying " Darling, come home with me
C D G
Oh, pretty darling, come home with me"
[Verse 3]
My daddy he's a businessman
Em
Got a big old castle in Switzerland
C D G
And a mansion by the sea
[Verse 4]
He spends his days with queens and kings
Em
And he fills his pockets with diamond rings
C D G
And he brings them home to me
C D G
Oh yes, he brings them all home to me
[Chorus]
Em C
Oh, dreaming helps you make it through the day
D Bm
Dreaming, where there's nothing left to say
C G Em
Dreaming helps to take the pain away
Am G
Me, I live in dreams
[Verse 5]
My husband he's a movie star
Em
He comes home every night in a brand new car
C D G
And he calls me his perfect wife
[Verse 6]
We've got a big old house with a hundred rooms
Em C
And a fine rose garden that always blooms
D G
It's a very happy life
C D G
Oh, yes a very happy life
[Chorus]
Em C
Oh, dreaming is a way to pass the time
D Bm
Dreaming everything will turn out fine
C G Em
Dreaming is the only thing that's mine
Am G
Me, I live in dreams

A
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, sometimes I dream
[Verse 7]
With the dishes done and the kids all gone
F#m D
I stand and I stare at the old brown lawn
E A
And I close my eyes and I'm free
[Verse 8]
And down my walk comes a handsome man
F#m D
And he takes me by my rough red hand
E A
And he heals it with a kiss
D E A
He says, "Let me take you away from all of this"
[Chorus]
F#m D
Oh, dreaming, no, it's not the same as lies
E C#m
Dreaming, it's the easiest disguise
D A F#m
Dreaming that there's love still in your eyes
Bm A F#m
Me, I live in dreams
D A
Me, I live in dreams
[Outro]
A
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh (dreaming)
A
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh (dreaming)
A
Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh (dreaming)
Sometimes I dream
