[Verse]
C D G D C D G D C
Cunning as a con-man, shrewd as a lawyer, I went weak in the knees, the first time I saw you
C D G D C D G D C D Em C
Deep inside, day to day ritual, ooh give it a try, do what you will, look out now
Em A Em B A Em B C#m A B C
But I've seen it all before, it's nothing new to me, a living legend, like 15 million other angels
[Bridge]
G D C D G C D G
Try as I do, I can never get through, I only got as far, as the back seat of my car
D C G D C G C D G C D
But it's all very well to cry now, yes it's all very well to lie now
G D C D G D C D
Well I'm wasting my time, clutching at straws, yeah, you know damn well, what's mine is yours
G D C D G D C D
Rich man or poor, duchess or whore, I haven't got time, for either or
[Chorus]
G C G D C G
I can't get over it, thank God, the storm’s passed over
C G D C G D C G
I'll settle down I guess, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while

Mantovani, Mancini and money, I fell for your etiquette, the first time we ever met
C D G D C D Em C
You really socked it to me with your finger-snapping rhythm, look out now
Em A Em B A Em B C#m A B C
You've got it all figured out, ten to one, I lose, drop your lovers noose, and swing me
[Bridge]
G D C D G D C D
Cruelly deprived, I don't know how you've survived, romantic theories are for pixies and fairies
G D C D G D C D
Looking in retrospect, seldom wrong but never correct, emotions are aired, like carpets out to dry
[Chorus]

I can't get over it, thank God, the storm’s passed over

I'll settle down I guess, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while

Sweet Dreams, Sweet Dreams, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
[Coda]

Well you wouldn't know me, from a bar of soap, a part of the furniture, an ornament, a rocking chair
D C G D C G
But it's all very well, to cry now, Sweet Dreams, every once in a while
