[Verse]
CDGDCDGDC
Cunning as a con-man, shrewd as a lawyer, I went weak in the knees, the first time I saw you
CDGDCDGDCDEmC
Deep inside, day to day ritual, ooh give it a try, do what you will, look out now
EmAEmBAEmBC#mABC
But I've seen it all before, it's nothing new to me, a living legend, like 15 million other angels
[Bridge]

Try as I do, I can never get through, I only got as far, as the back seat of my car
DCGDCGCDGCD
But it's all very well to cry now, yes it's all very well to lie now
GDCDGDCD
Well I'm wasting my time, clutching at straws, yeah, you know damn well, what's mine is yours
GDCDGDCD
Rich man or poor, duchess or whore, I haven't got time, for either or
[Chorus]
GCGDCG
I can't get over it, thank God, the storm’s passed over
CGDCGDCG
I'll settle down I guess, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
[Instrumental]

Mantovani, Mancini and money, I fell for your etiquette, the first time we ever met
CDGDCDEmC
You really socked it to me with your finger-snapping rhythm, look out now
EmAEmBAEmBC#mABC
You've got it all figured out, ten to one, I lose, drop your lovers noose, and swing me
[Bridge]
GDCDGDCD
Cruelly deprived, I don't know how you've survived, romantic theories are for pixies and fairies
GDCDGDCD
Looking in retrospect, seldom wrong but never correct, emotions are aired, like carpets out to dry
[Chorus]
GCGDCG
I can't get over it, thank God, the storm’s passed over
CGDCGDCG
I'll settle down I guess, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
DCGDCG
Sweet Dreams, Sweet Dreams, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
[Coda]
GCDGCDG
Well you wouldn't know me, from a bar of soap, a part of the furniture, an ornament, a rocking chair
DCGDCG
But it's all very well, to cry now, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
