I must be dreaming

What's this?
What's this? What's this?
B
There's something very wrong
What's this?
C
There's people singing songs
What's this?
The streets are lined with
EmC
Little creatures laughing
EmC
Everybody seems so happy
EmG
Have I possibly gone daffy?
B
What is this?
GC
What's this?
Am
There's children throwing snowballs
Em
Instead of throwing heads
Am
They're busy building toys
Em
And absolutely no one's dead
Gm
There's frost on every window
A#m
Oh, I can't believe my eyes
A
And in my bones I feel the warmth
C#mG#
That's coming from inside
GC
Oh, look
What's this?
B
They're hanging mistletoe, they kiss
C
Why that looks so unique, inspired
EmC
They're gathering around to hear a story
EmB
Roasting chestnuts on a fire
GC
What's this?
What's this?
In here
B
They've got a little tree, how queer
C
And who would ever think
And why?
EmC
They're covering it with tiny little things
EmC
They've got electric lights on strings
EC
And there's a smile on everyone
EmB
So, now, correct me if I'm wrong
C
This looks like fun
E
This looks like fun
AmB
Oh, could it be I got my wish?
GC
What's this?
Oh my, what now?
B
The children are asleep
C
But look, there's nothing underneath
Em
No ghouls, no witches here to scream and scare them
CBC
Or ensnare them, only little cozy things
EmEm6
Secure them in their dreamland...
GC
What's this?
Am
The monsters are all missing
Em
And the nightmares can't be found
Am
And in their place there seems to be
Em
Good feeling all around
Gm
Instead of screams, I swear
A#m
I can hear music in the air
A
The smell of cakes and pies
C#mG#
are absolutely everywhere
GC
The sights, the sounds
B
They're everywhere and all around
C
I've never felt this good before
EmC
This empty place inside me has been filling up
EmC
I simply cannot get enough
EmC
I want it, oh, I want it
EmC
Oh, I want it for my own
C
I've got to know
Am
I've got to know
EF
What is this place that I have found?
