Strum a C majorC

 FF  C/EC/E     Dm7Dm7     G+G  C majorC
If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream

     D7D7 (no top E MajorE) C majorC     C/BC/B      G+G     A minorAm
And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are


        FF C/EC/E   Dm7Dm7     G+G   C majorC
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream


    D7D7 (no top E MajorE) C majorC         C/BC/B      G+G    A minorAm
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star


      FF        C/EC/E     Dm7Dm7     G+G  C majorC
I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever


       D7D7 (no top E MajorE) C majorC         C/BC/B
And though I can't guarantee there's nothing scary

    G+G     A minorAm
hiding under your bed


     FF   C/EC/E     Dm7Dm7      G+G    C majorC
I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever


     D7D7 (no top E MajorE) C majorC        C/BC/B    G+G    A minorAm
And never leave 'til I leave you with a sweet dream in your bed

C majorC    FF
 I'm gonna watch you shine


 C majorC
Gonna watch you grow


    FF
Gonna paint a sign


  C majorC
So you'll always know


  FF    C majorC
As long as one and one is two


FF    C majorC     C/DC/D
 There could never be a father


       A minorAm         G+G   A minorAm
Who loved his daughter more than I love you


C majorC
Trust your intuition


It's just like goin' fishin'

  D7(no top E MajorE) C majorC  C/BC/B    G+G   A minorAm
You cast your line and hope you get a bite

           FF  C/EC/E  Dm7Dm7 G+G
But you don't need to waste your time

C majorC
 Worryin' about the market place


Try to help the human race

D7(no top E MajorE)C   C/BC/B   G+G    A minorAm
 Struggling to survive its harshest night


FF G+G |A minorAm|FF G+G |A minorAm|FF G+G |A minorAm|FF G+G |A minorAm|FF G+G |
