 F   C/E          Dm7         G   C
If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream


          D7 (no top E) C          C/B            G         Am
And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are


               F  C/E     Dm7         G      C
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream


       D7 (no top E) C                 C/B           G       Am
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star


            F                C/E          Dm7         G   C
I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever


             D7 (no top E) C                 C/B
And though I can't guarantee there's nothing scary

       G          Am
hiding under your bed


          F     C/E          Dm7           G        C
I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever


          D7 (no top E) C               C/B        G        Am
And never leave 'til I leave you with a sweet dream in your bed

C        F
  I'm gonna watch you shine


  C
Gonna watch you grow


       F
Gonna paint a sign


    C
So you'll always know


   F       C
As long as one and one is two


F       C          C/D
  There could never be a father


              Am                 G      Am
Who loved his daughter more than I love you


C
Trust your intuition


It's just like goin' fishin'

    D7(no top E)  C   C/B       G     Am
You cast your line and hope you get a bite

                     F    C/E    Dm7  G
But you don't need to waste your time

C
 Worryin' about the market place


Try to help the human race

D7(no top E)C      C/B     G        Am
 Struggling to survive its harshest night
