🎸 Verse 1:
C majorC            A minorAm
Last night I dreamt that I was a bird
   C majorC     G+G       A minorAm
Lift with the wind, long black wings would unfold
      C majorC        G+G      A minorAm      E MajorE
But when I dared to look down to the ground, to the ground


🎸 Chorus:
A augmentedA     DmDm

Why do I shake so?
A augmentedA    DmDm  A minorAm
I cannot fall

🎸 Verse 2:
A minorAm                DmDm
Last night I dreamt that I was a house
    A minorAm            DmDm
Flames leapt from the stove and licked at the walls
 A minorAm
I screamed from my windows 'Get out, oh get out
I'll explode!'

🎸 Chorus:
A augmentedA    DmDm
I am not safe
A augmentedA      DmDm
Pull me from Kansas
A augmentedA      DmDm      A augmentedA     DmDm
Why do they think I look safe and secure?

🎸 Verse 3:
C majorC       G+G      A minorAm
Last night you dreamt that I was a bird
C majorC      G+G       A minorAm
The whitest feathers and I soared
FF            A minorAm       G+G
I don't want to hurt the faith you have put
    FF                  A minorAm   G+G
But if you could reserve it 'till at least I have stood

🎸 Verse 4:
A7A7           Bb majorBb
Last night I dreamt of black current, river of voices
A7A7        Bb majorBb
Sink below; it forgives all my choices
      A7A7           Bb majorBb      E minorEm
But when I dare to look on to the sea, to the Ocean

🎸 Chorus:
A augmentedA     DmDm
I feel my limbs shrink
A augmentedA    DmDm
Into my fins and I think
  A augmentedA         DmDm
If I could just swim from
A augmentedA         DmDm  A minorAm
The lights of the shore

🎸 Bridge:
A minorAm     B minorBm   G+G   A minorAm   DmDm    E7E7
Last night I dreamt I was deep inside the mouth of a monster
   A minorAm  B minorBm    G+G
Green paper filled my breast
  A minorAm
And I woke to breathe
A minorAm
Sat up for to free myself
  E7E7
And there you were
E7E7
Just standing there

🎸 Outro:

I don't know if I can do this
    A minorAm    FF
There's too many dangers
  G+G
You might burn for me
  C majorC      G+G    A minorAm
For last night I dreamt you dreamt
   FF       A minorAm
That I was a bird
