A D E A D E
[Verse]
A D E A D
I can't remember the dream that I had last night
E A D
But I woke with delight and excitement
E A D E A D
And then when I tried to remember the dream that I had last night
E A D E
It was gone but the feeling I had in the dream stayed on
[Chorus]
A D Bm E
When I'm awake and I look around me
F#m Bm D C#
I can faithfully record everything that I can see
A D Bm E
Most of my memories tend to be sad
F#m Bm E A
So I wish I could remember the dream that I had
C# D Bm D
C# D E
[Verse]
A D E A D
I can't remember the dream that I had last night
E A D E A
If I could I would write it out, underline the highlights
D E A D
Of the dream that would now redefine my life
E A D E
Be a new road map, affirmation, and guiding light
A D Bm E
When I'm awake I note all that I see
F#m Bm D C#
And remember it with photographic accuracy
A D Bm E
Most of my memories tend to be bad
F#m Bm E A
And I'm sad I can't remember the dream that I had
[Bridge]
F#m Bm
Why can't I remember it
C#
when
D
I can't
Bm
forget
D E
unpleasant thoughts?
C# D E
I want to push them away
C# D Bm
They creep like weeds,
D E C# D E
like weeds they cover all the flowerbeds
A D E A D E
A D E A D
I can't remember the dream that I had last night
E A D E A
But the simple fact that my mind could concoct such a thing
D E A D
As the incredible dream that I had last night
E A D E
Is a clue to the key to a door to a world like that
A D Bm E
My daily life doesn't interest me
F#m Bm D C#
It's a never-ending litany of pain and ennui
A D Bm E
This waking nightmare is driving me mad
F#m Bm E A
And I wish I could remember the dream that I had
A D Bm E
When I'm awake I note all that I see
F#m Bm D C#
And remember it with photographic accuracy
A D Bm E
All of my memories make me feel bad
F#m Bm E A
And I'm sad I can't remember the dream that I had
F#m Bm E A
Why can't I remember the dream that I had?
F#m Bm E F
Wish I could go live in the dream that I had
