C majorC FF
In the morning when I wake up and listen to the sound
C majorC FF
Of the birds outside on the roof
C majorC FF
I try to ignore what the paper says
C majorC FF
And I try not to read all the news
C majorC FF
And I'll hold you if you had a bad dream
C majorC FF
And I hope that it never comes true
C majorC FF
'Cause you and I been through so many things together
C majorC FF
And the sun starts climbing the roof

It's a dream, only a dream

Just a memory, without anywhere to stay

🎸 Verse 2:
C majorC FF
The Red River stills flows through my home town
C majorC FF
Rollin', tumblin', on its way
C majorC FF
Swirling around the old bridge pylons
C majorC FF
Where a boy fishes the morning away
C majorC FF
His bicycle leans on an old oak tree
C majorC FF
While the cars rumble over his head
C majorC FF
An aeroplane leaves a trail in an empty blue sky
C majorC FF
And the young birds call out to be fed

It's a dream, only a dream

And it's fading now

🎸 Verse 3:
C majorC FF
An old man walks along on the sidewalk
C majorC FF
Sunglasses and an old Stetson hat
C majorC FF
The four winds blow the back of his overcoat away
C majorC FF
As he stops with the policeman to chat
C majorC FF
And a train rolls out of the station
C majorC FF
That was really somethin' in its day
C majorC FF
Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails
C majorC FF
As it carries the passengers away
🎸 Chorus:
C majorC G+G
It's gone, oonly a dream
FF
And it's fading now

Fading away, only a dream

Just a memory, without anywhere

It's a dream, only a dream

And it's fading now

Fading away, only a dream

Just a memory, without anywhere to stay
