      Gmaj7                  Am7
Every night, she walks right in my dreams,
        Gmaj7            Am7
Since I met her from the start.
       Gmaj7          Am7              Gmaj7          E7sus4
I'm so proud I am the only one, who is special in her heart.

        Gmaj7          Am7
I don't understand the way you think,
       Gmaj7                 Am7
Saying that she's yours, not mine,
        Gmaj7          Am7
Sending roses and your silly dreams;
       Gmaj7           E7sus4
Really just a waste of time.

So come and go with me, to one town.
        C           D6                 C          D6
But we, both cannot have her, so it's, one or the other.
         C              D6                 C           D6

'Cos I really feel it's time.

'Cos she said I blow her mind.

Break:

(Over Gmaj7, Am7)

(Paul):
 Michael, we're not going to fight about this, okay?
(Michael):
 Paul, I think, I told you; I'm a lover, not a fighter.
(Paul):
 I've heard it all before, Michael,
She told me that I'm her forever lover, you know, don't you remember?
(Michael):
 Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another.
(Paul):
 Is that what she said?
(Michael):
 Yes, she said it; you keep dreaming.
(Paul):
 I don't believe it!

Coda:
